I use Verizons 4G Broadbaand Router with voice MIFI device and have always had great service and speed all over the south and north-east. The device fee's are 30.00+- per month and then your data plan. Verizon charges $30.00 activate their or your device. Since you can attach a land line phone to the device, you can forward your home or business phone to the router on the road. TIP: Don't buy the router from Verizon, on Amazon the new router is $85.00 or $57.00 for refurbished. Verizon charges $280.00 for device. It runs perfectly on less than 75 watts, so i run mine thru a 75watt inverter 24/7.
rlbarkleyii, my husband and I are brand new to RVing. Just got a Class A and will be heading out on our first trip soon. I am interested in knowing more about the Verizon router connection option and am wondering if we can use what we already have as our home phone modem. We investigated mifi options, including using a Verizon Jetpack, but when we called Verizon (our cell and home phone provider) to ask more details about it, we were told we can just use the hot spot on my iPhone 6 to connect, using our data plan, of course. We decided that was the easiest way to handle connecting to the internet while on the road and that we would just add data if we get close to going over our present limit (4 GB/month). We would, however, like to take our home phone with us, as well as have the potential to connect to the internet using a more powerful "hot spot" option (being the 4G broadband router) since we already have the equipment and won't incur any additional fees or costs (other than additional data, if needed). Thanks for any help you can give!
