Ordering 2027 Dutchstar

[Guido]

I’m trying to decide if I should get any of Newmar options for Wi-Fi, they are offering Wi-Fi ranger Denali or Wi-Fi system Denali with interior router. Thinking of just getting there standard Starlink installed. Right now I travel with T-mobile home box. Thanks for any feedback back.

Just starlink. You do not need that other junk. I ordered a 26 and did not order that crap.

Why use starlink when T-mobile a 1/4 the cost ?

We used TMobile home and carried Starlink as a backup. Much less expensive and worked while driving etc.

Starlink only for me, the terrestrial cellular signal is too sketchy where I travel and anything "built in" will be four times the price I can pay on my own and obsolete long before the coach.

Look at all the vintage built-in comm systems on the average coach - Hughes Net, Dish Network, HDTV equipment, even Sirius satellite is obsolete.

If you go with just their standard internal router (Aspen?) vs the rooftop unit you can easily connect all your devices to it and then swap between rv park wifi (although at a weaker signal strength than the rooftop unit), your T-mobile mifi, and your Starlink (plug your starlink into the inside router) from that one device.

On my rig I'm benching my WiFiRanger and AT&T MiFi for a Peplink router with RoamLink. After two years from purchase my rooftop WiFiRanger (Everest) is no longer working and my AT&T MiFi costs too much as "unlimited" data is actually only 100GB with high overage fees and no rollover. For satellite I can plug that into the Peplink. I'm waiting for something other than Elon for satellite and this will meet my current and my future needs.

Best,

The other simple/cheap device I have been looking at (to replace my aging Wifi Ranger) is a GL.iNet travel router...

I take our Tmobile home internet when traveling and bring a GLiNet travel router to use where there's no cell service (like Deer Springs) to tie into their supplied internet. Other than that, the Tmobile unit has worked at 99% of the campgrounds we've stayed at. I keep the SSD and passwords the same on both units to make the transition, if necessary, seamless.

When our WiFi Ranger died we picked up one of those to replace it.

Worked well - TMobile was hardwired to it and, since the Starlink was outside including the router, that was connected via WiFi for failover.

We used the same one you have the link for above.
