4g LTE signal boosters

[Jonathan Langham]

I wonder if anyone has any experience of the above. Glomex produce one with a internal sim card slot that should give 20miles off shore. Its not too large to spoil the look of the boat as we dont have a fixed canopy. My requirement is more modest to get a decent signal to work from Birdham pool on a Friday before making an early departure for the weekend. The marina wi fi is very poor for Teams calls, might be ok for general surfing, but no good for work

There are cheaper solution on ebay but they just boost an existing 4g signal, (booster, extra wi fi generator as well as the router) so a lot more clutter in the boat.

Any thoughts welcome

This bit is excellent.

Sorry, I have no idea about the rest!

I have to say, that I use an newish iPhone SE with a good value data plan from O2 and connect various devices via the built in WiFi hotspot that IOS provides.

Might be worth asking around to see which mobile operator provides the best 4G signal at Birdham if that is the prime requirement.

Of course, asking the crew to stand on the newly fitted Tuna tower holding the phone above their head in the rain so you can complete a video call, may be classed as grounds for divorce or mutiny!

Yes it look like 02 have marginally better coverage
