    Firefly WiFi

    My 2022 Forest River Forester has the Firefly system which works great when the wifi works. Unfortunately it is sporadic. I've camped for weeks and it worked and then brought it home and a week later checked on the RV and the wifi in the panel won't come on so all the wifi switches won't work. I...

    Aspen wifi router

    We have been finding the Aspen to be significantly under performing. If we connect direct to a wifi network, we get good speed, but when we connect the Aspen to the same network, the speed is 10-20% of the direct connect. What is the right solution?

    Where's the WIFI Ranger Located

    I just got a Geo Pro 16BH. I turn on the wifi switch and wait a while for it to boot and still don't see its SSID in my network list on my phone. Is there a box in the rig somewhere or should I go up on the roof and make sure the disc antenna has power? Any other troubleshooting steps? Thanks.

    2022 Shamrock 233S WiFi Ranger

    Well my WiFi Ranger Teton HD lost a battle with my basketball hoop. Ripped it clean off the roof. I don’t believe we’ve used any of the functions that it offered but can some one sum up exactly what that offers the camper? Also, it does not appear they sell that any more so I cannot find a...
