A motorhome wifi router operates exactly the same way as the router you use in your home, except instead of connecting via a fibre optic cable, it uses its built-in antenna to find a broadband cellular network (5G, 4G, 3G) and amplifies this signal as a wifi hotspot which you can connect your devices to.

Though all motorhome wifi routers have their own integrated antenna, you do have the option of buying an external antenna that will boost the signal. Though a standard router will perform perfectly well for most trips, if you’re planning on taking your motorhome to particularly remote places and need a fast, reliable connection, then an external antenna could be a good option for you.

The geographic coverage of your motorhome wifi will all depend on the SIM it’s fitted with. As UK SIM providers tend to cap or limit your data usage in other countries, many people will find that the best solution is to buy prepaid SIMs that will work in whatever country you’re planning to visit. Some limited providers like KeepGo also have prepaid SIMs that will work across several countries.
