RVThereYet TV’s Real-World RV Internet Challenge — And How We Solved It
|

Reliable RV internet is essential for anyone who works, creates, or sells on the road.
RVThere Yet TV shares how they solved their connectivity challenges using a professional-grade mobile internet solution from MobileMustHave—designed to work everywhere from campgrounds to crowded convention centers.
When your business lives on the road, reliable internet isn’t a convenience—it’s mission‑critical. For traveling content creators, educators, and vendors, connectivity powers everything from filming and editing to publishing content and running live demonstrations.
That was exactly the challenge facing Patrice and Kevin, hosts and producers of RVThere Yet TV, a nationally distributed travel show. Between filming across multiple states and spending months each year exhibiting at RV trade shows, their livelihood depended on staying connected—everywhere.
This case study explores the real‑world connectivity problems they faced, how MobileMustHave designed a solution around their workflow, and how dependable mobile internet transformed the way they work.
Patrice and Kevin aren’t casual RV users. Their day‑to‑day workflow includes:
Filming travel content across the U.S.
Editing and uploading video while on the road
Managing an active business remotely
Demonstrating Wi‑Fi‑dependent products live at major RV trade shows
Before partnering with MobileMustHave, their setup relied almost entirely on cell phone hotspots. While simple, this approach quickly showed its limits.
Monthly data caps and frequent throttling
Inconsistent speeds depending on location
Bare‑minimum connectivity suitable only for email and light browsing
Unreliable performance for uploads, social media, and live demos
Trade shows made matters worse. Convention‑center Wi‑Fi is notoriously overloaded and unpredictable—especially during peak hours when live product demonstrations matter most.
Internet wasn’t just inconvenient. It was actively holding their business back.
Patrice and Kevin were introduced to MobileMustHave by another RV industry professional who immediately recognized the problem: they needed reliable, portable, always‑on internet that worked across campgrounds, cities, hotels, and convention centers.
Our role went beyond recommending hardware. We focused on understanding how they work and designing a system that supported their real‑world demands.
Fast setup with a minimal learning curve
Reliable, cellular‑based connectivity
Portability between RVs, hotels, and trade show floors
Real human support when questions or issues arise
Flexibility to expand the system as needs change
The solution was built around a Peplink B One 5G router paired with a modern Peplink 5G cellular modem, powered by MobileMustHave’s RoamLink Data service.
This combination delivers strong, flexible cellular connectivity without relying on campground or venue Wi‑Fi.
For especially challenging locations, the system allows for:
Optional external cellular antennas to improve signal strength without drilling holes in the RV roof
Additional external Wi‑Fi access points for expanded coverage on trade show floors or large spaces
Multi‑carrier flexibility instead of relying on a single phone plan
Consistent performance in crowded environments
Immediate connectivity for phones, tablets, and laptops
Reliable speeds for live demos and real‑time applications
Kevin summed up the onboarding experience perfectly: “Change the password, connect devices, and go live.”
Within minutes, their entire operation was online.
Because the system is purpose‑built for mobile environments, power efficiency and reliability are baked in. No complicated electrical upgrades were required, making it a natural fit for RV life and extended travel.
The first major test came quickly: a large trade show at the Boston Convention Center.
This time, instead of hoping the venue Wi‑Fi would cooperate, Patrice and Kevin confidently demonstrated:
Live app‑based product features
Their website and online store with no delays
YouTube content and online resources instantly
Kevin described the difference: “It wasn’t like, ‘let me wait for this to load.’ It was… boom.”
That reliability makes all the difference when your reputation and business are on display.
This type of mobile internet setup is ideal for:
RVers who work remotely or run a business
Content creators and YouTubers on the road
Trade show vendors, educators, and presenters
Full‑time or part‑time travelers who can’t afford downtime
Anyone tired of gambling on campground or venue Wi‑Fi
It’s especially valuable for RVers who camp in state parks or wooded areas where satellite internet struggles with trees and weather. RoamLink plans leverage all major U.S. cellular networks and offer flexible options designed for different usage levels.
Phone hotspots alone aren’t enough for professional workflows
Convention‑center Wi‑Fi is unreliable when it matters most
Cellular‑based, multi‑carrier systems offer flexibility and consistency
Proper onboarding and real support make a measurable difference
When asked to sum up the impact in one sentence, Patrice said: “It has made us accessible and efficient.”
For Patrice and Kevin, upgrading their internet wasn’t about chasing faster speeds—it was about eliminating friction from their work.
With a purpose‑built mobile internet solution from MobileMustHave, they gained confidence that their connection would work whether filming in a state park, editing on the road, or demonstrating products on a crowded trade show floor.
If your RV, business, or creative work depends on staying connected, the right setup can be the difference between hopingit works and knowing it will.
Helping people make that transition—from unreliable to dependable—is exactly what we do at MobileMustHave.
