I should have sent people to Starband.com; .net is different. Sorry

I honestly don't know about a portable system. It took the installers a quite a bit of time to aim the dish since it had to align with 3 satellites instead of the usual two. Also the dish is a parabolic shape that needs to have all 3 axis adjusted properly. My system was a first for the crew and took a couple of days to figure out. I have reservations that it would work with a motorhome but I don't know. Check with a motorhome dealer/manufacturer, I am sure that others have tried it. Motorhomers are pretty ingenious people, if there is a way, somebody has found it 8^)

Satellite internet won't work from a moving vehicle, but I think wireless would. Aren't a lot of semi's tracked that way? Check with some truckers to see how it works.
