TravlFi Launches new Journey1 Hotspot & Multi Carrier Cellular Plans

Posted on: November 8, 2021 / In: T-Mobile , Verizon , AT&T , News Brief / By: Jen Nealy Leave a Comment

The Journey1 is a rather basic low-end hotspot that utilizes a virtual SIM card that can connect to multiple carriers. TravlFi claims that the hotspot will automatically connect to whichever carrier has the strongest signal in your current location, but they do not disclose exactly which carriers they are using.

Both TravlFi and DishForMyRV offer a range of data plans to go with the Journey1, from 2GB for $19/month up to 800GB for $199/month.

The Journey1 hotspot is $229. Activation fees on the data plans may apply.

Key Mobile Internet Related Considerations:

• According to the FCC filing, the Journey1 only supports LTE Bands 2, 4, 5, 7, 12/17, 38 and 41. So while this device can use multiple carriers, it is lacking key bands for some  major US carriers .
• We have recently seen more and more options like this, with a virtual-SIM device that, in theory, automatically switches between carriers based on the strongest available signal.
• These virtual SIM plans might be a good option for travelers who want multiple-carrier coverage, as long as you are okay with using hotspot/router devices that tend to be rather basic in nature.

Pace International Travlfi Journey 1 Wi-Fi Moble Hotspot

Pace’s TravlFi Journey1 LTE WiFi Hotspot: Internet Access Anywhere

Already a member?

Description

• Discussions

Whether you’re crisscrossing the country or just going to one of your favorite parks, finding dependable high-speed Internet is frustrating. You might find yourself at campgrounds that have one router located in the office, and if you’re not within 100 feet you don’t get connectivity.

When it comes to hotspots and internet connectivity devices, Dave knows you have a lot of choices, and he’s tried a lot of them, from cell phone plans to satellite providers. They’re usually either too expensive or they come with too many hidden fees, or it’s a two-year contract or you get charged to disconnect and reconnect and it just gets too expensive.

What Dave likes about the TravlFi Journey1 WiFi Hotspot, which he’s used the past couple of months all over the country, is the connectivity at high speeds. He supposes Pace is able to provide reliable service because they’re not tied to a single carrier—they use the major providers all over the country to give you the best service in your area.

Dave also likes the flexibility of data plans and the ability to purchase data on a monthly basis and only when he needs it. You’re not tied to a lengthy contract, which is crucial if you’re only going to RV for a few months in the summer or traveling across the country and have WiFi. You can customize your plan based on your unique usage without penalties.

And look at this thing—it’s about the size of a coaster! It’ll fit anywhere in your RV, and it lasts a long time on a single charge. The TravlFi Journey1 WiFi Hotspot has up to 3000 mA hours (whatever that means). Dave says he’s used it extensively, and he’s gone over two full days without having to charge it.

No matter what your WiFi needs are, the TravlFi Journey1 is in his opinion the best option. If you have gamers in your group who require various data plans and high-speeds, the TravlFi Journey1 WiFi Hotspot works great. It’s also perfect for the TV streamers who need to watch the next best thing on Netflix or Hulu (it also) allows you to stream and use the RV antenna for local TV stations. And for the traditional old-school RVers who just want to check email and do some trip planning or weather checking, it’s the most economical way to stay connected .

When Dave goes camping, he doesn’t watch TV a lot. He’s not stuck inside; he’s out sightseeing and adventuring, but he still needs occasional internet access to do campground reservations, look up the weather, and find information on repairs and maintenance upgrades to fix my RV. Just like you’re doing now! So make it easy. Get connected wherever you go with this great WiFi hotspot. TravelFi Journey1: Customized for the way you RV.

I have this exact hotspot and it's no good... I got it to connect to Verizon network twice which is fine and work's good with Verizon but now all it wants to pick up is at&t and T-Mobile both of which are horrible and you'll always end up with #3 strict nat type. There's no settings and no reset button... On top of all that it over heat's "no it wasn't in direct sun light or covered up nor was it plugged in" it will stay functional for about 10 minutes then shut off due to heat. I had to hang it in front of my ac vent just to keep it on which interfered with the signal... So all in all the travlfi journey 1 is a nightmare and a regret i now have...

Dave, I checked into this a few months ago and they told me that you have to pay the activation charge every time you either change plans or stop for a month then start up again. Can you confirm with them?

What is the cost??

Journey xtr lte.

Posted by Tracy’s Oasis

Tried a few other options . Nothing really panned out . Decided to give this a try. So far it has exceeded all expectations . Streaming , no problem. Work remotely, no problem.lowest speeds have been in the 25 meg down and 3-4 up. Most of the time it has been above that. Highest speeds have been 125 down and 22 up. We’ve been to most of the places that we previously struggled to find service and so far this has hit the mark. I haven’t even had to break out my cell booster since starting this service. I did have. Problem with the router needing a reboot almost every day and recently I was losing the signal lights while still having signal. I call the tech help line and they did some hocus pocus with the eSIM and now the unit works even better. Was receiving around 30 meg down here at home and now it’s hitting 80. No reboot since. Great service as well!

Very Easy Setup

Posted by Kirby Spike

Just got my Travlfi JourneyXTR LTE WI-FI Router last week. Set up was super easy. At my first campsite now and I am getting good reception. The router has selected various suppliers throughout my stay.

When my wife and I decided to travel, live, and work full time in our RV, we did our homework and learned that the Travlfi Journey XTR would be one of the most effective and reliable options. Since starting with Travlfi, we have found the reception and customer service to be first rate---Highly recommended for anybody who needs to stay connected on the road 24/7.

Posted by Paige Bakken

While the majority of the time we are stationary, the five times we have traveled with the unit, it never disappoints. Even in torrential rainstorms, we have not had any issues.

I just recently purchased the LTE WiFi Router. It was easy to set up and has worked very well. It’s a total game changer!!

10/10 I Recommend!

Posted by Jasmine

Delivery was quick! Quick and easy to set-up. I’m a full time RV-er and use the WiFi consistently with my Blink Camera. No outages that I have experienced, and super portable! We have used this anytime we stay away from our RV as well.

Shipping was quick, the router works prefect. Easy to setup in your home or RV. So far I like how it works with cell towers, the signal is strong.

Perfect for my camper van

Posted by Romel

I love this device. I havens had any issue with connectivity so far. I can do streaming, email and connect to work whenever, whereever. Flexible data plans will suit anyone’s needs. Highly recommend.

Most reliable router yet for us

Posted by Anne Marie Munos

We live in a remote area where Internet service providers have a difficult time getting a strong signal. When all of our options for Internet connectivity dwindled to nothing, we tried this router and Travlfi service. It has been the most reliable service we've had in a few years after we lost our radio wave connectivity. Thank heavens we found this router. Speeds for data transfer are very acceptable. There are slow periods during midday hours, but that's not a problem for us. We're retired!

How to plan a weekend break in Cascais, Portugal

Framed by beaches and home to a collection of Portugal’s most eclectic historic mansions, this Portuguese Riviera town is a favoured destination for locals and is only an hour from Lisbon.

An important fishing town through the Middle Ages, an aristocrat holiday hotspot in the late 1800s and a safe haven for exiled European royalty in the Second World War — Cascais has lived many lives since its inception as a settlement for salting fish during Roman times. Today, reminders of this multifaceted history can be found both in the town itself and the wider area, such as in nearby Sintra.

The unhurried pace of life here is a distinct contrast to the constant hum of Lisbon, 18 miles to the east. Museums focusing on the region and its connection to the sea have found homes in the ornate 18th- and 19th-century mansions emblematic of the region, while the bounty of the Atlantic is celebrated at Cascais’s restaurants. Parks and gardens are   woven through the town and beyond it there are lush mountains, wild   beaches and hiking trails.

Benefitting from refreshing Atlantic breezes in summer, the town is a favoured destination for the Portuguese and especially residents of Lisbon — yet Cascais remains mostly hidden to foreign tourism. And unlike many resort towns and cities, it doesn’t lose its appeal — or its residents — outside of the summer.

Day 1: Museums & mansions

Morning Start your day slowly, like the locals do, at the revamped 1950s marketplace Mercado da Vila, with a coffee and sweet pastry such as pastel de nata. There are dozens of produce stalls to peruse and excellent shops for souvenirs of the edible kind — handmade chocolates, artisanal cheeses and reds from the Lisbon wine region. On Wednesdays, a vintage market pops up next to the fruit stands, and during summer there’s live music and a rotating roster of street food stalls where you can buy lunch. Try anything with sardines, a staple of the region, and eat your food at the communal picnic tables while watching market life unfurl. On the outer wall of the market, look for the traditional azulejo tile mural, which recounts the history of the region.

Afternoon From the market, swing past Cascais’s most photographed sight — the Italianate Casa de Santa Maria and adjacent blue-and-white striped lighthouse — en route to the Bairro dos Museus . The quarter is home to nine museums, all a short walk from each other, shining a spotlight on everything from local life to Portuguese culture. Start at the Museu da Vila, housed in a small but ornate 18th-century building. Inside, old photographs, ancient artefacts, music and film document the evolution of Cascais. Continue on to Museu do Mar, dedicated to the region’s maritime history, and finish with a visit to the Museu Condes de Castro Guimarães, for an insight into the life of the aristocrats who once spent summers here.

Evening Eat at Jardim dos Frangos , a go-to for traditional Portuguese piri-piri chicken, in central Cascais, but save room for ice cream at Santini . It’s the oldest parlour in Portugal and still uses the original Italian family recipe from 1949. Afterwards, head across the street for a drink at either John Bull or Chequers . These institutions, opened by English and Irish expats, might look out of place in Cascais but have a historical connection to the town. During the Second World War, they became gathering places for the city’s international crowd, including exiles, refugees and Allied spies. Today they remain a great spot for a local pint and people-watching.

Day 2: Sailing & coastal hikes

Morning Hire a solar-powered boat from the marina and spend the morning appreciating the Portuguese Riviera’s architecture from the water, keeping an eye out for dolphins and other marine life as you go. Many buildings are unique, taking influences from different time periods and geographical locations, including gothic, Islamic and Moorish elements. Heading east towards the town of Estoril, highlights include Casa Palmela, influenced by the neo-gothic mansions of England, and Palacete Seixas, an eclectic late 19th-century mansion. Once back on dry land, eat lunch the Portuguese way at Páteo do Petisco , ordering small sharing dishes of potato-peel chips, blood sausage and fried cuttlefish.

Afternoon Cabo da Roca, a half-hour drive west of Cascais, is reachable by hire car or bus and makes a good starting point for exploring the wild western coast. The cliffs here tower more than 460ft above sea level, offering spectacular views out to the ocean, with the waves of the Atlantic crashing onto the rocks below. The Miradouro do Cabo da Roca monument marks the western edge of the continent. From here, you can amble along the coast or join the Praia da Ursa trail for a gentle, three-mile stroll to a viewpoint overlooking the remote Ursa Beach. Alternatively, take a challenging three-hour hike around the cape, which includes a descent to the windswept beach. If you’d rather do a guided walk, book with Walk Hike Portugal .

Evening If you’ve hired a car, instead of rushing back to town, drive down the coast at sunset. Cliffs and crags give way to sand dunes and deserted beaches, and it’s especially scenic right before dusk when the landscape is painted golden. Once back in Cascais , take a loop around the town’s medieval fortifications to work up an appetite for dinner. The renovated square inside the fort hosts a contemporary art district with sculptures, statues and a small but excellent art gallery. Afterwards, bag a table at Taberna da Praça on the square. Its menu champions locally sourced ingredients and traditional dishes with a modern twist. Try the Portuguese fish stew caldeirada or steak with salty, cured Azeitão cheese.

Three more castle-palaces in Sintra

1. National Palace of Pena The bright yellow, red and blue domes and turrets of the National Palace of Pena crown one of the peaks of the Sintra Mountains, high above the town. Built in the 19th century by Ferdinand II, the king consort to Queen Maria II, it’s one of Sintra’s most iconic sights and also one of the best examples of Portuguese architecture of the period. Contrasting architectural and decorative forms bring together gothic, Moorish and Islamic styles to create this dramatic romantic revival structure. Now a national monument and a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1995, the palace is open to visitors — buy your ticket in advance and arrive either first thing in the morning or late in the afternoon to avoid crowds.

2. Sintra National Palace The country’s oldest royal palace and also the only one to still feature structural elements from the 1200s, the Sintra National Palace is a journey through over a thousand years of Portuguese history and architecture. First references of the palace appear in the writings of 10th-century Moorish geographer Al-Bakrî and since then nearly every Portuguese king and queen has spent some time at the palace. The building has been shaped by different architectural influences, especially Mudejar style — a combination of Christian and Muslim art — but its most striking feature is the two tall, white chimneys. At over 100ft high, they connect to an equally impressive kitchen, which was built to prepare and cook game meat after royal hunts.

3. Park & Palace of Monserrate This palace’s impressive pastel orange arches and ornately carved columns fuse Moorish revival and neo-gothic elements. An eclectic vision of the 19th-century British industrialist Francis Cook, the house and gardens represent the essence of Lisbon region’s summer architecture style, and the complex is much less visited than some of Sintra’s other palaces. Highlights of the house include the Music Room, with its ornate dome and excellent acoustics, and the curated gardens. In the latter, indigenous flora such as cork oak coexist with imported towering sequoias from North America, bamboo from Japan and ferns from New Zealand — it’s the perfect spot for a morning stroll or a lunchtime picnic.
