Satellite Internet for Caravans (UK)

Overview

Caravan connectivity usually comes down to mobile broadband for flexibility or portable satellite for coverage in remote sites.

Mobile broadband

A 4G/5G router with an external antenna is light, cheap and effective where there is coverage — the default for most touring.

Portable satellite

Where sites are remote and mobile signal is weak, portable satellite gives mast-independent coverage, at higher cost and with a clear-sky requirement.

In short

Match the technology to where and how you will use it: mobile for flexibility and cost where coverage is good, satellite for coverage and reliability where it is not.
