TravelFi for WiFi; any users out there?

Anyone using this for inshore use? How is it working?

They are fairly popular among RVers and had some decent reviews on line.

I got one last week and currently testing it at home and it has not worked very well. Use case was our boat when we don’t need Starlink for offshore in the off season and then bring to our RV for the Winter. Connection issues for both Android and Apple devices. Talking to their Tech Support and not getting a warm and fuzzy about its capabilities.

We use a wave wifi 2.4GHt/5GHz antenna (Rogue Pro DB) and it works great on the boat. https://www.wavewifi.com/ I'll be adding Starlink this winter, but I doubt we'll only use it a couple months in the summer.
