    Nice review. We love our Mini. We use it for our home internet and we take it with us on our RV trips. Just got back from a trip up thru Maine. On travel days we laid the mini on the dash flat plugged into the cig plug and it worked great shooting up thru the front windshield.

    Chris, I just bought the Generation #3 Standard at the last cheap price using the monthly roam, and it is incredible!
    I wish the pipe adapter was included in the standard. It is a power hog, forcing me to upgrade my RV's AGM batteries to lithium, utilizing the 500-watt solar panels I have on the RV roof. I'm looking forward to setting up the pole to attach to my RV's rear ladder.
    I have reduced the monthly cost of my two Verizon Wireless Mifi devices.

    Can you go over the monthly mini plan pricing?

    Seems to me you would want both. I started with the Standard as it was cheaper, and RVing, I thought I would get a better signal in limited over cover areas. That being said, when the Mini’s come down in price, I plan on getting it also. You can switch between the Standard and the Mini with one plan, right? Thanks for a great vid.

      No, each dish would have its own data plan.

      @@MobileInternetResourceCenter Well that stinks : ( So you can’t just switch back and forth, using the Standard one trip, and the Mini on the next without having 2 separate plans? Another quick question on plans? I heard a Tuber state that you could watch approx. 63 hours of UA-cam with the 50 Gig base plan. Do you think that sounds about right? Thanks for being so prompt with your answers. Liked and Subscribed : )

      All depends on what video definition you're viewing at. 63 hrs would likely be at SD (480p). Here's our guide to streaming video: www.rvmobileinternet.com/tv

    Can wifi signal be boosted on mini by using Starlink's gen 3 mesh? If so, can gen 3 mesh bridge to mini wirelessly?

      No, gen3 is wifi 6 and mini is wifi 5 so they are not compatible.

      Yes you can Mesh a Starlink Mini Wi-Fi with the Gen 3 router. Starlink has the instructions for this in their FAQ under "How do I set up Starlink Mesh?"

      @@ajsaldana4212 You can Mesh the Gen 2 & Gen 3 routers even though they are Wi-Fi 5 & Wi-Fi 6 and you can Mesh the Mini with the Gen 2 or Gen 3 routers. Starlink has the instructions for this on their website.
