Clev, Have you checked out the WIFI signal near it's source? If the campground you're in doesn't have a decent internet connection it won't support streaming of any kind regardless of a WIFI booster or not.

The WIFI Ranger is a booster, it needs a decent connection to boost to your trailer! Without a decent internet connection or connect speed you're going to be spinning your wheels.

I got into a conversation with one park owner this spring, he was telling me how WIFI signals can vary widely depending on how "advanced" the system in a particular park is. According to this guy a lot of campground owners will get an "entry level" internet/WIFI system in place so they can advertise "free WIFI". This would be the least expensive to them and the WORST for their guests! He went on to tell me a "decent" internet/WIFI system in place will probably cost a park somewhere in the neighborhood of 10k and a lot of owners don't want to lay out that kind of investment. This guy was charging a nominal fee for "decent" WIFI and I have to say once connected to THAT system our internet was STELLAR! You get what you pay for......
