Finally, a plug and play package that has a decent router WITH an external antenna and flexibility with carriers. I predict this will be hugely successful. We don't need it until January, but I'll be turning on notifications now.
It is great to know this is available. We are planning some bigger RV trips out west in the next few years that will have me working from the road for a month or more at a time. Roamlink plus Starlink would pretty much ensure that I can keep working from anywhere.
I just spoke with them today, I'm sold. It is expensive though it's 100 GB with 4 carriers. Another benefit if you are coming from a hotspot on your phone or one of the hockey puck looking hotspots. The antennas and radios are much better in many ways.
I was very skeptical at first, but the unlimited option seems like a pretty good deal for someone who works remotely, especially with the hardware rent-to-own thing. Planning to buy a truck and fifth wheel next year to escape rent and roam around.
Awesome, been wondering why/how all of these other companies were offing similar offerings on cheaper equipment while this wasn’t offered on this higher-end equipment. So follow up question, with this kind of an offering, is there any reason to buy individual provider plans/sims any more? Or does this combined one replace that need completely?
There are sometimes great options that are only available directly from the carriers - so it always makes sense to see the latest plans and promos. We track them at RVMobileInternet.com/planpicks All depends on how you want to build your redundancy and the value you have in multiple connections at once, versus taking a few minutes to switch carriers. Members also have cost comparative analysis to assembling individual plans in the link article.
Also - RoamLink (and other plans like it) adds an extra hop to traffic that can add some latency to connections. We have shared some initial test results in the members section of the linked article. People who are focused on latency-sensitive tasks (like competitive gaming) might want to have a carrier direct plan for that traffic.

Just got the 99 roamlink plan and will be traveling from FL to MN so will be giving it a good test

Indeed - they are a great combo for increased redundancy and reliability.
