Holiday WiFi
WiFi Booster kits for Boats, Caravans & Motorhomes at Caravan and Camp Sites, Holiday Parks & Marinas.
Are you finding that although a campsite offers WiFi, you still struggle to pick up a good signal? If you are using your smartphones, tablets and other devices inside your Caravan, Motorhome or even a boat then the signal will likely meet interference from the vehicle. Often the metal skin of a caravan/motorhome/boat can block an incoming WiFi signal, limiting the WiFi signal strength you can receive inside.
Here at Solwise, we can help overcome this with our WiFi Patriot Range.
A Patriot device will give you the best chance of capturing a weak signal and providing a strong signal inside and around your vehicle enabling all the family to connect their devices.

WiFi Booster for Boats, Caravans, and Motorhomes
Many people want to stay connected to the internet whilst away to keep up to date with their social media accounts or to stream the latest show on Netflix. So, to facilitate this, many locations now offer a WiFi service in which smart devices such as phones and tablets can connect, as well as devices such as laptops and any other wireless-enabled equipment.
In theory, this seems a simple endeavour, however, due to the nature of radio waves, you might be in a situation where the wireless signal is too weak to reach your location, either due to atmospheric interference or limitation of the wireless client’s capabilities.
This is where the Solwise Patriot Range comes in.
Simply put, you position the PATRIOT-DB unit or PATRIOT-NANO antenna, outside on the vehicle or building, ideally in the general direction of the wireless signal, above the roofline, and run the cable inside to connect to your device.
Depending on which Patriot product you choose, you can either connect it via Ethernet to an existing wireless router, or via coax cable into a broadcasting device. The objective with either option is to bridge a connection between an existing wireless signal and then re-transmit it locally as WiFi inside your vehicle/building through an internal device. That way you have the advantage of using an existing internet connection, regardless of the location of the original wireless signal.
As a rule, the Patriot range, product dependent, supports 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz wireless frequencies, BT-FON and is compatible with all WiFi and Ethernet-based devices. To make it easier, Solwise offer a kit that includes all equipment and mounting brackets you should need to connect to an existing wireless signal too far to reach ordinarily, and the ability to re-broadcast the WiFi locally creating your own personal hotspot. This is the PATRIOT-NANO kit.
So next time you find that the free WiFi does not quite reach your location, or meets interference from your vehicle, give the Solwise Patriot Range a try.
