Creator's Key Takeaways
We pulled in to Middle Ridge Campground in Romney, WV — a place that historically has ZERO cell service for us — and somehow walked away with 15-20 Mbps downloading in the pouring rain.
I'd say it did it did okay. Um I'd give it a passing grade.
All in all though, it was a pretty good experience.
So, in my opinion for part-time RVers or anybody that just travels and you happen to find yourself at a campground or somewhere that doesn't have any Wi-Fi or your cell signal just vanishes, the Solis Hero can do the job for sure and keep you connected to the internet.

We pulled in to Middle Ridge Campground in Romney, WV — a place that historically has ZERO cell service for us — and somehow walked away with 15-20 Mbps downloading in the pouring rain. Here's the full breakdown. This trip we finally put the SIMO Solis Hero portable WiFi hotspot to the test for the first time. No campground WiFi, barely a bar of cell signal — just us, the rain, the pups, and a little device we'd been curious about for a while. We'll walk you through the whole thing straight from the dinette while it's pouring outside: how to set it up, how to purchase data through the app, a speed test BEFORE connecting (spoiler: 2 Mbps 😬), and a live speed test AFTER (????? Mbps ). We also test connectivity stability and walk through the user interface some so you know exactly what you're getting into. Watch 'till the end to find out what we actually thought of it after using for a weekend!
