I'm waiting for Furrion to change my mind

Firstly I haven't used the 4G LTE part, their tariffs are too high for me. However, I bought it to extend the range and "centralize" my devices on a single cellular network. Second, I found that it can't "see" all available SSIDs. Waiting for an explanation as he sees mostly both 2.4GHz and 5GHz. Third, it stopped working after a few weeks. When logging into the admin portal, it doesn't see any SSIDs at all, including my local HotSpot device, which used to be fine. So we wait for Furrionโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Regular price
Cons
  • Not bad

Good product could be much better with more competitive data rates

I bought this for my Keystone RV camper which also came with an antenna on the top. Repeating the wifi signal from the park you are staying at works well, but no more, the signal strength is not very good. Verizon's data plans are too expensive and you wouldn't actually use them. I think you're better off getting a hotspot package for your phone provider and then using it in your RV. Buying data from Furrion/Verizon is a ridiculous road. Setup is extremely easy and nothing fancy, just connectโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • New competitors have arrived

No, electronics are the best networking product.

. I should have trusted my intuition and not bought it based on other reviews. Thing works great if you pay for it but you run out of wifi after only 1 day. There are two of us in our camper, we are on the phone (no streaming or anything) and we can pay for internet one day and go out the next. These are insanely absurd prices. Do not do that!

Pros
  • . I hold my fists.
Cons
  • . Hard to say.

Bullshit doesn't work on 5g

If I could put zero I would. It doesn't work in 5G. The data they are trying to sell you is around $25 per hour per view. total divorce. ******* Easy to install. Not that easy to set up. The manual lacks details on what a factor password is. It's just a link to the number on the sticker. You must place the sticker image in a circle of exactly 6 numbers that they refer to. One day I reached customer service and ended the call because the CSA was very rude. That was over a week ago and I haven'tโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Not cheap but decent
Cons
  • Nothing

Not worth the escalation and definitely not worth the money

Product as described would be good however problem after problem with 3 days email response time and if response doesn't work call us back and wait another 3 days. So aside from the cost, I also lost the 10GB of data I paid for and it didn't work for more than 10 minutes. Great if you go camping over the weekend, call tech support and get an answer the following Tuesday. I called this Friday after it had signal strength and light to buy data but it didn't work. When you call tech support, youโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Hands free
Cons
  • Very expensive
