[QUOTE="condor22, post: 558943, member: 1932"] On previous trips to the GT, I found that some locations got very iffy mobile reception and even worse Internet. My setup was a prepaid 4G WiFi modem, mobile phone was a T96 3G Telstra with an antenna port. (My main phone at home is Optus, which is even worse out bush) I should add that Telstra are starting to shutdown the 3G network to be completed by 30/62024, so my T96 is a bit obsolete. The antenna I used was a magnetic base, small whip that I put thru the van roof hatch and sat on the van roof. I wound the hatch down one wind from locking and fed the cable between the full blind and the fly screen. This was drafty when windy, let insects in thru the gap and although it made the difference between signal and no signal, was not the best. Whatever I was going to do, would not include drilling holes in the roof, cost an arm and a leg and be easily setup. Read on next post.......... [/QUOTE]
