Stay Connected wherever your adventure takes you!
Introducing the Roam X, the ultimate solution for WiFi whilst going away in your motorhome or caravan. The Roam X is designed to be even faster and even more powerful than our very popular Maxview Roam.
The Maxview Roam X WiFi system contains everything you need to provide super fast internet for all the family. Ideal for heavyusers of the internet, the Roam X is designed specifically for vehicles such as caravans and motorhomes.
The Roam X uses a superfast 4G router to create a WiFi hotspot in your vehicle. The 5G ready antenna significantly improves the reception of the signal and is omnidirectional, so it will perform wherever you are and without adjustment. Simply fit and forget. The Roam X kit will also connect to existing WiFi connections (such as your home) and repeat the signal. Yes you will. You have several options available: 1. All Maxview Roam systems come with a Maxview SIM pre-inserted into the router. This has unlimited data for £19.99 a month. You will have a QR code on the router for activation and there should also be a leaflet with a QR code eSIM. 2. Other physical SIM cards from other network providers. Since you are not locked into our Maxview SIM, you can use any other network such as EE or 3. Our specially designed app can be used to easily monitor the usage or change settings on the router, wherever you are in the vehicle. This eliminates the need to go inside your cupboard to check a screen or LEDs on the router.
The Roam X motorhome and caravan WiFi system is perfect for anyone who wants superfast and reliable internet on the move. The Roam X WiFi system is also very popular with owners of campervans, van conversions, canal boats, trucks and horseboxes Yes you absolutely can! The Roam X kit will keep you connected to all your favourite shows in rural and remote areas, as long as you have a subscription or license for the relevant service. You will need about 2 – 3Mbps for standard definition streaming and about 3 – 5 Mbps for HD streaming which are achieved almost everywhere in the UK with the Roam X. Music streaming services like Spotify need a maximum of 1Mbps. We would always recommend a professional installation, click the button below to put in your postcode or location and find installers closest to you. Alternatively, a competent DIY’er could install the Roam X, for this you can refer to our Installation Video on YouTube or our written Maxview Roam installation instructions here. If you are buying a new caravan or a second hand caravan you can mention to your dealer that you would like a Maxview Roam X WiFi kit installed and they may be able to do it for you. If they are not sure what it is then please ask them to contact us and we can advise them. If you don’t want or need a hole in your roof, we also offer a raiser mount kit, providing the flexibility to mount your antenna anywhere on your roof and putting the cable through an existing entry. Yes, extension cables can be purchased separately to allow a flexible mounting position to the router. They are available in 1m, 2m, 3m and 5m lengths. The main difference is the speed capability of the router. The Roam X is a CAT6 router which means maximum speeds are 300 megabytes per second compared to 150 megabytes per second on the CAT4 Roam. The other difference is the capability to handle multiple heavy user simultaneously. In this situation we can offer the Roam X Upgrade pack to upgrade to the more powerful router and the relevant accompanying accessories. You can see this product here. Yes, it will work in Europe. The Roam works across the UK and Europe but this is dependent on data provider and contract. Due to Brexit there are some restrictions on how much data you can use with your UK sim card in Europe, we go into more detail about this in our SIM card article. The Roam antenna is 5G ready and compatible with all 5G frequency bands as standard so it’s ready when this new technology arrives. The router itself uses 4G. At the moment, the speeds which can be obained using our 4G router and our antenna are sufficient for all every day uses of the internet, from checking emails to streaming Netflix or BBC iPlayer in HD. 5G is largely intended for futuristic technologies such as self-driving cars. If you are interested to learn more about the subject you can read our expert-written article on 5G here. Yes, absolutely. You will be able to connect to the WiFi connection with your smart devices in the same way you connect them to your router at home. It’s worth bearing in mind that the router will need to be continually powered for the WiFi connection to remain on, so if you are checking WiFi CCTV cameras then the router will need to be on also when you are not there. This may come down to what battery you have installed. If you are struggling to get the Roam system working properly then the first port of call should be our Roam Troubleshooting Page.
