You've got questions...

Is it REALLY unlimited data?

Really, truly.

Our service doesn't throttle down your internet speeds based on your usage like many of the plans from other carriers.  There are no choke points, overage fees, or data limits.  Plus, your first 50GB every month get first priority should you encounter network congestion on your local cell tower.

What speeds can I expect?

With mobile internet, real-world speed and performance are highly affected by a range of variables, including location, coverage, signal reception, interference, localized network congestion, etc.  However, the Omni (XR-3) is capable of speeds of 150 Mbps + and in most instances will average somewhere around 5 Mbps in areas of adequate coverage.  The XR-2 is fully encrypted, so our maximum speeds are 10Mbps in both directions.  This is typically suitable for the moderate internet consumption of 2-6 people. None of our plans impose any data limits, overage fees, or throttling.

Will it work everywhere?

We deliver a connection to your beacon using cell towers.  You can check out our coverage maps at https://www.theRVITguy.com/coverage to see if we can deliver signal in the places you frequent.  And if you are going to be traveling the edges of the coverage network, a lot of our customers pair our device with a cell booster to optimize performance where reception is weaker.  The Omni (XR-3) can ping off of towers belonging to any of the nationwide carriers in the US.  The XR-2 is ultra-low frequenfy Band 71-compatible, which means about 2x the range and 4x the signal resiliency of standard mid-frequency cellular bands, making it an excellent choice for RVers traveling in more rural places. If you're wondering which is better for you, click the chat button at the bottom of the screen and we are happy to advise!

Do I have to sign a contract?

Nope! There are no contracts, commitments, or cancellation penalties with our service (we don't like them any more than you do). Everything is prepaid monthly and billed automatically. You can cancel service at any time, and we'll pay the return shipping for the equipment. You also have the option to put your service into "suspended mode", dropping your monthly fee to $15 (device lease only) so that you can hold onto the equipment and reactivate service at any time without re-incurring setup costs. This is especially popular with our seasonal travellers.

What is the difference between the XR-2 and the Omni (XR-3)?

The XR-2 is our second-generation Extended Range beacon.  It is fully encrypted and runs at speeds up to 10Mbps.  It is smaller and lighter but operates on a fixed nationwide network for a monthly fee of $99 (one-time setup fee of $195).  The Omni (XR-3) is our thrid-generation Extended Range beacon.  It supports unencrypted speeds up to 150Mbps, but is a bit bulkier.  It also uses AdaptiveSIM technology to jump between towers of the different nationwide networks as you travel, thereby drastically expanding your coverage.  The Omni's monthly fee is $119 (one-time setup fee of $249).

Does this use my cell phone data?

Nope!  Our ‘internet included’ beacons come with their own embedded and unlimited data plan.  These devices are completely self-contained and require no integration with your cell phone provider.  Many of our customers will switch their phone(s) to a less expensive plan with a lower data allotment.  This way they can use their beacon as their everyday connection and keep a small amount of data access on their phones for when they’re out and about.

Can I stream video (Netflix, Amazon Prime, Max, YouTubeTV, etc.) with this?

Yes!  We support streaming at standard definition (DVD quality).  This is part of how we deliver a truly unlimited connection that doesn't get throttled down to lower speeds part-way through the month.  It's also the best way to ensure a smooth video stream that doesn't buffer or stutter across a wide array of signal conditions.

Note that some live TV services like Hulu Live have restrictions on the use of mobile internet connections on their platforms, and require you maintain a home-based internet service provider to use their apps.

Does this work for online gaming?

Yes!  Provided you are in an area with decent signal strength, our connection is suitable for most online gaming.  We find latency, or ping times, typically have a higher impact on gameplay, and in areas of strong reception, our ping times can be well below 100ms.

we've got answers.

I work remotely and my employer has minimum requirements for my internet connection. Does your service meet them?

This depends on a number of factors, including the technical connection requirements of your work, as well as the signal and network conditions in your location.  However we have lots of customers using their connection to work remotely!

Does the beacon have an ethernet port I can physically plug my device into rather than use WiFi?

Yes, all of our devices have an ethernet port for hard-wired connection.

What is the WiFi range of the beacon device? Will it work with my whole-home or mesh WiFi system?

Our beacons are designed to fill the footprint of an RV with wireless connectivity, about a 25-ft radius.  To extend the beacon’s connection to a larger area, mesh systems and range extenders can be paired via ethernet cable.

Can I use this service even if I don't have an RV? Can I use it for home internet?

Yes, provided you are in a location with adequate reception, you can absolutely use it as your home connection. Just bear in mind it is designed for RV travel, so the WiFi won't fill a larger house. However, you can use in combination with another WiFi router or mesh system if you have one to distribute the signal over a larger footprint.

How much is the device? Do I own it or rent it?
Our beacons are leased as a part of your monthly service fee and must be returned upon cancellation.  You wouldn't want to own one anyway, as it has proprietary software on it so we can remotely support you, so it doesn't work with service from other providers.  Should it become defective at any time, we simply ship you another one free of charge.  There is a one-time setup fee for the service that covers configuration of the device, activation costs, device insurance, and shipping and handling (between $195 and $249 depending on the model).  If and when you opt to cancel service, we will provide a prepaid shipping label for return of the device.
How long does it take to get the device?

We configure all orders from the day each evening, and they ship first thing the following morning via USPS Priority Mail (2-3 day ship time).

Is this guaranteed to work? Can I get a refund if it doesn't?

Refunds are difficult given that we're a prepaid service, but there is a limited return window to allow you to try out the service. Within 10-days from your order (which translates to roughly 5-6 days once your device has arrived), if you decide to cancel service and return the equipment, we can refund your setup fee and first month of prepaid service, less a $40 restocking fee.

How does billing and payment work each month?

Our service is prepaid monthly via auto-billing until you elect to either suspend or cancel your service.  You’ll receive a statement each month by e-mail, and can easily change your form of payment at any time by logging into your account on our website or calling us at (414) 399-1687.

Are there any hidden fees or service charges?

Nope, just a one-time setup fee plus your monthly service charge.

Can I place my account on hold when I'm off the road?

Yes!  We have the option to move your account into "suspended mode", which drops the monthly fee to $15 (device maintenance portion only).  That way you can hold onto the equipment and reactivate service at any time without re-incurring setup costs.

Is there a number I can call to speak with someone?

Of course! You can reach us at (414) 399-1687 during the hours of 8am – 8pm CT Monday thru Friday.

Where are you located?

We’re based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin – but we’re an entirely virtual company staffed by former IT industry pros turned full-time RVers roaming the countryside. 🙂
