Firstly the Roam Campervan uses 4G or 5G mobile data in order to create a reliable WiFi hotspot. By using the antenna it can often pick up usable signals where your phone’s antenna can’t.

Either way the Roam Campervan 5G WiFi system will give you the best shot at staying connected. Will I be able to watch Netflix, BBC iPlayer or Amazon Prime? Yes you absolutely can! The Roam 5G Campervan system can keep you connected to all your favourite shows in rural and remote areas, as long as you have a subscription or license for the relevant service. You will need about 2 – 3Mbps for standard definition streaming and about 3 – 5 Mbps for HD streaming which are achieved almost everywhere in the UK with the Roam 5G router.  Music streaming services like Spotify need a maximum of 1Mbps. Speeds will be dependent on location and network provider’s signal strength in the area. How do I Install it? We would always recommend a professional installation, click the button below to put in your postcode or location and find installers closest to you. Find an Installer Alternatively, a competent DIY’er could install the Roam, for this you can refer to our Installation Video on YouTube (video is for our original Roam WiFi system but much of the installation is very much the same). If you are buying a new campervan or high top van you can mention to your dealer that you would like a Maxview Roam 5G WiFi system installed and they may be able to do it for you. If they are not sure what it is then please ask them to contact us and we can advise them. Do I need a SIM card? The short answer is yes. There are many different types of SIM cards to choose from and how you choose them should depend on what type of user you are. You will be streaming a lot of Netflix or BBC iPlayer? Then you will need a lot of data. If you are watching 1 hour of videos a day, you will need around 40GB of data a month. Double this if you are watching in HD. You will just be listening to some music, browsing restaurants and checking your emails? This is much less intensive at around 10GB per month. You can use our Data Usage Calculator to estimate your data usage for your trip. The other thing to consider is whether you need a single network SIM or multi-network SIM and how important having a connection all of the time is to you. If you are generally in the same place then you can check what’s called a coverage checker, like this one from EE to see the coverage of EE in your specific location, you can do the same for O2, Three and Vodafone. Alternatively, if you are travelling around a lot and it’s essential you stay connected, you can have a multi-network SIM card, like our partners BroadbandGo. This picks up the best network in the location you are in. Since April 2022 all Roam WiFi system products are being sent out with a 5GB free multi-network SIM card from our partner BroadbandGo. You will need to register this using their app to activate it. What are the differences between the Roam 5G Campervan, the Roam X Campervan and the Roam Campervan? The main difference is the speed capability of the router. The Roam 5G is a CAT20 router which means maximum speeds are 3.1 gigabites per second compared to 150 megabytes per second on the CAT4 Roam. The other difference is the capability to handle multiple heavy users simultaneously. What if I already have a Roam Antenna Installed on my Roof? In this situation we can offer the Roam 5G Upgrade pack to upgrade to the more powerful router and the relevant accompanying accessories. If your antenna was made after January 2021 then it is compatible with 5G.  You can see this product here. What are the main technical details I need to know? The Roam 5G router provides super high performance The antenna is compatible with all 5G frequency bands The router has 2 SIM slots 4 ethernet ports allowing additional wired devices CAT 20 LTE chip with download speeds of up to 3.1Gbps The antenna is omni directional, this means that no manual adjustment needed. The router has 2 WiFi outputs. 2.4Ghz for more range and slightly less speed, and 5Ghz for less range and more speed, perfect for many different applications Will it work in Europe? Yes, it will work in Europe. The Roam Campervan works across the UK and Europe but this is dependent on data provider and contract. Due to Brexit there are some restrictions on how much data you can use with your UK sim card in Europe, we go into more detail about this in our SIM card article. What are the contents of the Maxview Roam 5G Campervan WiFi kit? Omni-directional Roof Mount Antenna and Fixings Cables with SMA connectors 12v 4G Router Mounting Bracket and Fixings  12V Cigarette Power Supply Ethernet Cable Will I be Able to Connect Smart Devices Such as Lights, CCTV Cameras and Smart Switches? Yes, absolutely. You will be able to connect to the WiFi connection with your smart devices in the same way you connect them to your router at home. It’s worth bearing in mind that the router will need to be continually powered for the WiFi connection to remain on, so if you are checking WiFi CCTV cameras then the router will need to be on also when you are not there. This may come down to what battery you have installed.
