• After witnessing the continued decrease of involvement in the SpotterNetwork staff in serving SN members with troubleshooting issues recently, I have unilaterally decided to terminate the relationship between SpotterNetwork's support and Stormtrack. I have witnessed multiple users unable to receive support weeks after initiating help threads on the forum. I find this lack of response from SpotterNetwork officials disappointing and a failure to hold up their end of the agreement that was made years ago, before I took over management of this site. In my opinion, having Stormtrack users sit and wait for so long to receive help on SpotterNetwork issues on the Stormtrack forums reflects poorly not only on SpotterNetwork, but on Stormtrack and (by association) me as well. Since the issue has not been satisfactorily addressed, I no longer wish for the Stormtrack forum to be associated with SpotterNetwork.

    I apologize to those who continue to have issues with the service and continue to see their issues left unaddressed. Please understand that the connection between ST and SN was put in place long before I had any say over it. But now that I am the "captain of this ship," it is within my right (nay, duty) to make adjustments as I see necessary. Ending this relationship is such an adjustment.

    For those who continue to need help, I recommend navigating a web browswer to SpotterNetwork's About page, and seeking the individuals listed on that page for all further inquiries about SpotterNetwork.

    From this moment forward, the SpotterNetwork sub-forum has been hidden/deleted and there will be no assurance that any SpotterNetwork issues brought up in any of Stormtrack's other sub-forums will be addressed. Do not rely on Stormtrack for help with SpotterNetwork issues.

    Sincerely, Jeff D.

Hi everyone I'm New to the forum so I apologise if this is in the wrong place.

The thing is that I have recently got a TP Link 3G/4G router that I want to use to provide Wi-Fi in my vehicle but I'm not sure what setting I need to have the wifi transmit power on (High, Middle or Low) also what the best location to place the router inside the vehicle would be?

I am also wondering what you would recommend the best way to get internet on multiple devices or what you have setup to get internet on the move?

My current Router I have is a TP-Link TL-MR3420 3G/4G 300Mbps Wireless connected to a Huawei E392 4G dongle with an 15dB external antenna.
 
I don't think it really matters where in the vehicle you place it, or what power setting you use. You might have trouble if you put it on low and stick it in the trunk, but any wifi router should be able to reach anywhere within the small confines of a vehicle. I would just put it someplace out of the way and leave it on the high power setting. I don't see any harm in that. That router should allow multiple devices to connect, so you should be good to go.
