So So,tried connecting using the ConnecT 4G2 and was able to acquire a ususable WiFi connection. In 1 of the RV parks, I could not connect either my computer or smart phone to the WiFi. I started connecting to the wifi networks using my laptop and my Smart Phone. I n the 4 RV Parks I tested it at, I first connected to their “free wifi networks”. I also like the ability to set up a separate guest network, for friends and other visitors. The unit is already setup for the best encryption and firewall settings from the factory. safely on a public unsecured wifi network which you will find at most RV Parks. The built in Firewall and encryption allows you to use your computer, tablet, Smart TV, Smart Phone, etc. I like the security that is included with the ConnecT 4G2. The on off switch can also be used to reset the unit to factory settings in case of a problem. The unit is 12 volt powered, so the switch allows you turn it off when not in use. I have mine installed in one of the cabinets above the driver’s compartment. The ConnecT 2.0 also includes a basic on and off switch that you can install in a location in the RV that you choose. Don’t get me wrong the performance of the WINEGARD ConnecT 4G1 WiFi Extender is impressive, but I was always worried about the antennas getting torn off of the roof unit.

The roof unit is a very sleek looking well-constructed dome that contains 3 WiFi Antennas and 2 4G Antennas (pictured Above), which is available in either black or white.
