What our members are saying..
We were just about to get on the road full time and needed more GBs for our Verizon MiFi…and here comes the MIA newsletter notification about killer deals from Verizon. I called Verizon immediately and added 150GB to my MiFi for a super low price. The Verizon associate didn’t even know about the deal - it was that fresh!! MIA is an outstanding and necessary service for us full timers work on the road. Looking forward to some of the upcoming webinars. THANKS MIA!!

Thank you for your detailed, unbiased, and easy to digest content. It was critical to my being able to work from the road.
Christine O’Neil
Even after working full-time on the road and sea for nearly a decade, I still rely on the Mobile Internet Resources Center's expertise to keep me up-to-date and informed on the current best options for mobile connectivity. Their expert research, advice and thorough product testing have saved me both time and money when it's come to choosing the best options for my own business. Mobile Internet Resource Center has been invaluable in helping me keep connected wherever I may roam.
Kerry McHale
I love this team of people that spend so much of their time researching and testing new mobile internet equipment, data plans and carriers. They make it so I have a one stop to compare my choices and get an unbiased opinion of what will and won't work for my needs.
All I needed to do is to read the research that they had done. Now I am just waiting for some 5G routers to come out with load balancing. That and I am waiting for Starlink to go mobile.
If you want the best mobile internet information This is the place to find it.
Gary Pratt
Not only is the arena of mobile internet incredibly complex, but it's also constantly changing - sometimes on a daily basis. Staying on top of all of that is a full-time job, and that's exactly what our friends Chris & Cherie over at the Mobile Internet Resource Center do!
If you haven't already checked out their website then I highly encourage you to do so. They provide a huge amount of content for free - industry news, guides and reviews - but becoming a member of their MIA (Mobile Internet Aficionados) group could be money well spent if you want to find the best setup for your specific needs.
Matt and Diana- Adventurous Way
Chris and Cherie are OG full-time digital nomads and have been traveling for nearly 15 years! They both work on the road and knew that this lifestyle couldn’t work long-term without solid internet. After years of testing and experience, they’ve become the gold standard for understanding and finding gear for internet for RVers.
Heath and Alyssa – The RV Entrepreneur Podcast
MIA - Mobile Internet Aficionados - is an ESSENTIAL RESOURCE for our nomadic household. Premium Membership access to the Mobile Internet Resource Center has paid for itself many times over. If you need to work from the road, or simply can’t imagine your nomadic life without streaming Netflix, then paying for this membership is a no-brainer!
Researching & tracking all this stuff myself would break my spirit in a week.
This is a pay wall worth paying for!
Michelle Dahlin – The Status Crowes
If you want true in-depth coverage of Internet Connectivity on the road the best resource for this is the Mobile Internet Resource Center. Chris and Cherie do an outstanding job covering this subject including all the latest updates and changes.
Tony Barth - Stressless Camping
Don’t pass Go. Don’t collect $200. Instead, check out Mobile Internet Resource Center, founded by our friends Chris and Cherie. They are THE experts on mobile Internet, and have been since before we started traveling full-time in 2014. They have a ton of free content available, as well as a membership program with more customizable resources. We can’t recommend them highly enough. Anyone who tries to design a mobile Internet solution without them is wasting time reinventing the wheel.
Eric & Britany Highland - Hourless Life
The opportunity for this adventure, being full-time on the road, while still working, all hinges on one thing, access to the internet wherever we are. Not just access, but reliable high speed, capable of supporting video calls, file transfers, and the occasional streaming TV show or movie.
But this technology constantly evolves and selecting plans and hardware can be overwhelming. Luckily we connected with Cherie and Chris at the Mobile Internet Resource Center. A wealth of information, resources, and honest to goodness helpful guidance and responses to our ongoing calls for help. This is what they do full time and it shows. Do yourself a favor, become a Mobile Internet Aficionado.
Julia and Robert – Livin Large
If your work depends on stable internet, we highly recommend becoming a member of RV Mobile Internet Resource Center. Cell and data plans are constantly changing. This is the source for staying connected on the road.
Nathan and Marissa – Less Junk More Journey
I am a new member and I cannot believe the depth of the information on this site. I am not easily impressed but this has got to be the most informative site on the web. I am very thankful that I found it!
Timothy Allbritton
Everything we’ve learned about mobile internet we’ve learned from them. Their yearly membership is ABSOLUTELY worth it and we would not be able to travel full-time without them.
If there is only one membership you will buy before traveling and working full-time, it should be this one.
Julia and Steve - Hungry for Tomorrow
I’m a member and I can attest that I can sound like I really know what I’m talking about, but only because I have read these guys.
Mike Wendlend - The RV Podcast
If you are considering becoming a member ...just do it!!
It’s been one of our best investments we have made in our journey to preparing ourselves for RV life. Honestly, we have been overwhelmed by the level of professionalism, depth of knowledge and unbelievably fast responsiveness. And the online resource centre....unbelievably well organized and user friendly. What a gift you are to the rv/boating community!
So happy for you that you have taken your strengths and passion and moulded it into a career that truly embraces your lifestyle choices and helps others. You and your team ROCK.
Sharon Tremblay
My wife and I have recently retired and are hitting the road full time.
First off you have really helped us in our endeavors to stay connected while we start off on our adventures. We are definitely not tech savvy but you have really made it simple to understand and acquire the proper equipment to get started with and a little bit of insight of what we might need as we progress along.
We truly appreciate everything that you provide and definitely recommend you to everyone that we run into. Hopefully our paths will cross one day and we can thank you in person.
Chester Chapman
Finding this site was like solving the DaVinci code for mobile internet!
While you can get some great information on the free portion of the web site, with the MIA membership you get access to all of the nitty-gritty details as well as awesome in-depth summaries and training. THIS is the kind of information one needs when researching the technologies available and the products that use those technologies before hitting the road.
Any time there's a relevant change or new story specific to mobile internet, MIA is on top of it! They sometimes get the scoop well before it's public!
Chad Florian – Changing Lanes RV
We owe our blog and podcast and everything we do online to Chris & Cherie because without their information, Heath & I would still be bickering over who could sit closest to our hotspot so our email would load faster.
They are on top of all the latest news, the best gadgets, and the best networks. I love knowing that as part of their community, I never have to do any of the research for what plans are best because they’ve already got a blog or a video or a post on it with all the details fully explained.
Alyssa Padgett – The RV Entrepreneur
Internet options in North America, and specifically the USA, are plentiful. It can be a bear to wrap your head around. These guys are the gurus and can help guide you along based on your needs and budget.
They have more gear reviews than I have sunglasses. And for those that know me, that’s a statement.
Nikki Wynn – Gone with the Wynns
As mobile Internet and cellular plans are an ever-changing landscape, we look to mobile Internet and technology experts to keep up with the latest. The best resources we have found include RVMobileInternet.com. Their service has saved us thousands of dollars in connectivity fees since joining in 2014, and helps us stay on top of the latest plans and ensures that we always have the best solution for our needs.
Marc and Julie Bennet – Living the RV Life (book)
Everything, and I mean everything, you need to know about getting and staying connected on the road (or water). From extensively tested gear guides to tips on working remotely, streaming movies, and boosting signals, you will not find a better resource for mobile internet information anywhere.
Amanda and Tim Watson – Watsons Wander
Mobile internet solutions are decisions that I have been putting off for nearly a year because of the amount of time it was going to take me to do the proper research.
All I did was spend a little bit of money on your membership, take a few hours to read all of the incredible research you had completed, and magically, I had nearly everything that I needed to move forward.
And that makes me a happy (full time) camper!
Karl Nordstrom
Mobile Internet Resource Center is a top-notch mobile technology resource. Chris Dunphy & Cherie Ve Ard have been on the road full time for the past 10 years.
Working remotely as they roam - they practice what they preach through first hand experience.
You will learn critical information that will help you stay connected as you travel.
Escapees Magazine – Escapees RV Club
If you rely on mobile connectivity for your travels and are looking for concise, clear and relevant info I can’t recommend this site enough.
I’ve learned more in just a few weeks on here then I could have in months of self-research.
Nina Fussing - Wheelingit blog
Let’s face it guys, you are the gurus that beat all other gurus. What you don’t know you learn and what you learn you are able to disseminate in an easy to learn and absorb way.
I’ve been in tech and the computer industry for over 35 years and you guys are still able to blow my socks off with your in depth knowledge.
