Internet while moving

Not sure what kind of business you've got. But some truck stops have wifi that can be purchased to use while sitting in your truck. Like a subscription service. Might be an option

 

if it's just data you need, if you have verizon unlimited, any device with an LTE antennae and/or SIM card slot can be added to your plan under "bring my own device" and it can eat the same data from that one plan you already have. I use a Lenovo thinkpad that has a SIM slot and an LTE antenna, it picks up the same 4G data my phone uses, just one bill. Only thing is it took about 6 months trying to find the right verizon store that understood what i was trying to do and wanted to play along. When i finally got someone who gave a hoot about me and wasn't trying to sell me another phone/plan/device, he was like "oh, you just need a SIM card. those are free. hold on one sec." he got a SIM card from the back, added my laptop to my account (even though it's a laptop it gets it's own phone number), windows 10 automatically set up the sim card with the LTE antennae when we plugged it in, instant internet. didn't pay anything, he just said thanks and i danced out of there. Verizon 4G has great coverage, and the speed is enough to watch hour long 1080p YouTube videos without it ever buffering at all. most anywhere except some towns you can get 3MB download speeds, and near metroplexes you can get stable +5MB download speeds, talking about 10 gigabyte software downloads in 10 or 15 minutes.

 

Yes I have a lot of knowledge on this issue for an obvious reason, I am mobile a bunch of the time.

SO let me do the IT thing.

In order for any answers to be useful, there has to be a questions asked.

When you say using multiple systems online, what exactly do you mean?

This is very important because of the nature of some work at home things can't be done outside a hardline internet connection.

For example, if you are doing order or customer service where you would be using an app to connect the customer to you, and then look up their order, do some processing stuff, ect. ... you will have a hard time with that due to the latency of the connection.

By the way, I saw 5G mentioned, don't get your hopes up with that sale pitch (no offense to anyone) but that won't happen in rural areas without a lot of costs because it is rather a dumb idea, short distance communications (less than a block) using what is called SHF which is pretty nasty microwave stuff is really not the best move forward.

 

To add to @Ridgeline comment.

If you are doing something like content moderation you should be fine for the most part.

If, on the other hand, you are doing the work at home technical support my sister does, you will not find a network that will work.

She has a high QoS for voice, and a realtime vpn connection to the company workflow and knowledge base.
Cell towers don't like those connections and will drop out frequently on cell tower change. Satellite has latency issues, and cost issues for as much data as you will require.

Then there is the fact that megas tend to flip flop schedules, so your hubby might start the week driving days, but end the week driving overnight.

 

Really?
I do not let them flip my schedule like that. I never have.
Sometimes I will work a bit later or get up a bit earlier, but I will NOT go from day driving to night driving at anyone's whim.

I maintain the schedule that I want. Period.

 

There's a company called Millenicom that has a 4G service available, its intended to serve their specifically truck drivers, full-time RVers, that sort of thing.

I used their service over the summer. The pricing's not great but not too bad.

It's totally dependant on availability of 4Glacier cell towers of course but their plan I thought was pretty affordable.

I went to the site to check coverage.
Guess what?
It showed the T-Mobile coverage map.

 

Millenicom used to use Verizon, then at&t. now it's T-Mobile? I wonder what's next.

 

I"ve found those coverage maps to leave much to be desired. They don't tell the whole story.

 

I use a Verizon Mi-Fi, it can run 15 devices if need be and is very reliable.
