Introducing the Roam 5G, the ultimate solution for WiFi whilst going away in your motorhome or caravan. The Roam 5G mobile internet system is designed to be even faster and even more powerful than our very popular Maxview Roam and Roam X systems.
This Motorhome 5G WiFi system is full 5G, meaning the antenna is 4 x 4 MiMo, it has 4 cables instead of 2 meaning you can access the maximum speeds that 5G mobile internet is capable of.
The Maxview Roam 5G WiFi system contains everything you need to provide super fast internet for all the family. Ideal for very heavy users of the internet, the Roam 5G is designed specifically for vehicles such as caravans and motorhomes.
The Roam 5G uses a superfast 5G mobile internet router to create a WiFi hotspot in your vehicle. The 5G 4 x 4 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. Most antennas on the market are 2 x 2, with our 4 x 4 antenna you will have full access to the 5G mobile internet speeds available when you have coverage. The Roam 5G kit will also connect to existing WiFi connections (such as your home) and repeat the signal. The short answer is yes. There are many different types of SIM cards to choose from and how you choose them should depend on what type of user you are. You will be streaming a lot of Netflix or BBC iPlayer? Then you will need a lot of data. If you are watching 1 hour of videos a day, you will need around 40GB of data a month. Double this if you are watching in HD. You will just be listening to some music, browsing restaurants and checking your emails? This is much less intensive at around 10GB per month. You can use our Data Usage Calculator to estimate your data usage for your trip. The other thing to consider is whether you need a single network SIM or multi-network SIM and how important having a connection all of the time is to you. If you are generally in the same place then you can check what’s called a coverage checker, like this one from EE to see the coverage of EE in your specific location, you can do the same for O2, Three and Vodafone. Alternatively, if you are travelling around a lot and it’s essential you stay connected, you can have a multi-network SIM card, like our partners BroadbandGo. This picks up the best network in the location you are in. Since April 2022 both the Roam and Roam X products are being sent out with a 5GB free multi-network SIM card from our partner BroadbandGo. You will need to register this using their app to activate it. The Roam 5G motorhome and caravan WiFi system is perfect for anyone who wants superfast and reliable internet on the move. The Roam 5G WiFi system is also very popular with owners of campervans, van conversions, canal boats, trucks and horseboxes Yes you absolutely can! The Roam 5G system 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 5G system. 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 5G system, for this you can refer to our Installation Video on YouTube or our written Maxview Roam 5G 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 5G 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. Important: with the standard raiser bracket kit you will receive 2 extension cables, but the 4 x 4 antenna has 4 cables to extend so you will need to buy another pack which contains 2 extensions. See next section for more details. 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. For the 5G 4 x 4 antenna you will need to buy 2 packs, each containing 2 cables, to fully extend the antenna’s cables. The main difference is the speed capability of the router. The Roam 5G is a CAT20 router which means maximum speeds are 3.1 gigabites per second compared to 150 megabytes per second on the CAT4 Roam. The other difference is the capability to handle multiple heavy users simultaneously. In this situation we can offer the Roam 5G Upgrade pack to upgrade to the more powerful router and the relevant accompanying accessories. If your antenna was made after January 2021 then it is compatible with 5G. 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. 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. More details, click to expand

If you travel to Scotland, EE’s coverage is regarded superior, whilst Vodafone proves popular for those travelling into Europe. The Three network is generally considered to offer competitive deals. Please check limitations of your network provider and Data SIM, especially when travelling abroad, the number of days abroad, usage and restrictions and roaming charges.
