Looking for advice (and perhaps products) that can boost or allow me to get the Wifi service as provided by each of the various resorts I stay in. I am having to use my Verizon HOTSPOT and I am burning through data usage.

 

Any suggestions, products or solutions?

 

Thanks and Merry Christmas to all.

Ditto Bill' advice above.

Directional yagi antenna on a painters pole (I use an extendable 8' (16' total) pointing at park wifi antenna). That adds signal strength and gets me above the other vehicles / trailers.

Anything you can do to capture the signal with the least obstructions (line of sight) will help.

Good price for a well regarded product. Used so do due diligence:)!

The above is a good comparison, and shows the distance and cost of that ebay unit. 

 

I seem to recall that when they would sell the GOac router by itself, it was in the $200+ range, so getting the Booster Antenna for a bit more in this GOac Used Package, is nice...

Best of luck to you,

Smitty

FWIW that's not a " booster antenna", it's a complete router on the roof that is slaved the one inside.
