Winegard Gateway Testing

Reviewed in the United States ?? on July 29, 2021

Verified Purchase

I've seen the good and bad reviews for the Winegard Gateway, so I decided to purchase the Gateway and do some testing.

I have a 2021 Grand Design Reflection 303RLS that came with the Winegard Air 360+. I updated the Gateway firmware to the latest version and purchased an AT&T sim card to use in the Gateway. I also have an AT&T hotspot that was used in my previous trailer. I ran several tests to compare the upload and download speed of the Gateway and the hotspot. The test was conducted inside my trailer where my cell phone was equal distance from the Gateway and hotspot using a 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi connection. My cellphone is a Samsung S20 FE.

I ran several speed tests using Google's speed test web site.

Cellular Testing
AT&T Hotspot connected to AT&T cell tower:
9 Mbps download, 4 Mbps upload

Winegard Gateway connected to AT&T cell tower:
20 Mbps download, 16 Mbps upload

Wi-Fi Testing
I tested the Wi-Fi connection from the Winegard Gateway to my home Wi-Fi and from my Samsung phone to my home Wi-Fi. My maximum home internet speed is 100 Mbps download and 5 Mbps upload. My home Wi-Fi equipment is a Google mesh Wi-Fi system.

Samsung cell phone connected to Home Wi-Fi:
86 Mbps download, 4 Mbps upload

Winegard Gateway connected to Home Wi-Fi:
22 Mbps download, 4 Mbps upload

I don't know why the Wi-Fi speed is 22 Mbps when the Gateway is connected to my home Wi-Fi. I expected it to be closer to the speed of my cell phone connection. Clearly, there is an issue with obtaining maximum speed from the Gateway to a Wi-Fi network.

I also checked the number of Wi-Fi access points that were available on my cell phone and on the Gateway. On my cell phone I had 3 access points available from neighboring houses. On the Gateway, I had 15 access points available from neighboring houses. Although the Gateway to Wi-Fi speed test was slower than expected, the signal range of the Gateway was impressive.

On/Off Switch
I also want to mention a modification I made with the on/off power switch that comes with the Gateway. Because of the location of the slide on my Reflection, it would be difficult to mount the on/off switch on the wall and I didn't want to drill another hole to mount it in the ceiling. I decided to mount the switch on the Gateway. Using a Dremel cutting wheel I cut a slot in the side of the Gateway to mount the switch.

To connect the switch wiring, I cut the Gateway 12 volt negative wire and attached the connectors that come with the Gateway. I plugged one connector to a spade on the power switch and the second connector to the other spade on the power switch. I was just completing the negative side of the circuit so it didn't matter which wire is connected to the spade.

The ceiling height of the Reflection does require me to use a small stool to reach the Gateway switch, but it is a minor inconvenience. We already have a stool in the kitchen that we use to reach the upper cabinets.

Conclusion
The Gateway is working good enough for my uses. Yes, the Gateway to Wi-Fi connection speed is less than I had hoped, but the Gateway to cellular connection performed well. I will use the unit during my summer camping trips.

UPDATE: I have an update to my original testing information. I'm currently camping at a boondocking site in the Deschutes National Forest in Oregon. My AT&T hotspot is unable to connect to the cellular network. The Winegard Gateway is successfully connected to the AT&T network. I've been here for four days and the Gateway has consistently maintained a cellular connection. The Gateway connection speed is 3 Mbps download and 3.5 Mbps upload, which is adequate for my uses. The combination of the Gateway router and the Air 360+ external antenna really make a difference in this remote area.

Great product / bad supplier (RV Warehouse)

Love the product. It works well. The supplier (RV Warehouse) on the other hand has lost my business permanently. They shipped me a package that had been opened and was missing parts. Then they refused to replace it until they received the original package back. I bought the item locally and got a refund on this one.

Great idea, but had trouble using with campground's WiFi captive portal

Reviewed in the United States ?? on October 19, 2022

Verified Purchase

This sounded like an ideal solution. Our regular campground has public WiFi that can get overloaded on busy weekends, and then I have to resort to using my portable MiFi device, which only works outside the camper, because the single is too weak in the mountainous area we are in. So this looked like an excellent option allowing a seamless way to switch between the campground WiFi and my cellular service when needed. Hooking up the device was a piece of cake. The fact that our new camper was prewired and had the Winegard AIR 360+ installed made it incredibly easy to physically install and get going.

Unfortunately it got complicated from there. I was not able to get the WiFi working correctly with our campground's public WiFi, despite having a good signal. It seemed to get stuck due to the face that our campground has a captive portal on its WiFi network (where when you first access the WiFi, you have to agree to the services Terms and Conditions), before your device will be able to communicate to the public internet. Unfortunately, no matter what I tried, I could not get the portal's T&C page to load, and thus was not able to get the gateway to become authorized and go online. When I tried it with a different WiFi which was simply private and thus password protected, it work immediately and worked very well.

I decided to try to put a Verizon SIM card in the gateway and try using that. After going through a couple steps for setup, it worked immediately. Actually, it worked much better than when we had our phones outside the camper on the Verizon LTE network directly. It seemed that the added height of the antenna on the AIR 360+ made a world of difference in out location and the connection to Verizon was rock solid and worked excellent.

This was a tough choice, as I am pretty confident I would eventually be able to figure out what the hang up with the campground's active portal was preventing this from working with the GW-1000 right away. However, the return window was closing soon on the Amazon order and I just had discovered the option of the WiFi Ranger Gateway being available. So I decided to return the GW-1000 and try the other gateway.

BTW, the pre-wired cables coming off of the AIR 360+ are three MCX male connectors. The yellow and green connect to the 4G LTE antenna, and the red is for the external WiFi antenna. The remaining cable on our Keystone camper was the 12V line which was already pre-wired to a switch on the TV/Media center. Thus for those with a little knowledge of these things, it would be easy to use with other devices and the appropriate adaptors for the external antennas.

Easy install if RV is prewired.

Install went easy and straight forward with the preinstalled wires from the factory in the camper. The pay as you go data plans from Winegard are pretty expensive. But I needed it for the NFL kickoff game ?. I was able to stream it on a Roku stick with zero buffering and a crystal clear picture for the entire game. The initial setup requires you to be near Wi-Fi to configure and create your account before being able to active the SIM card on the cell network.
