Winegard Air 360 Plus

Over the last three Montana’s we have had the regular Winegard antenna, added the uhf upgrade and the King Jack antenna. With DirecTV, we need access to over the air antennas when traveling outside our spot beam for local channels. With a 2021 Montana ordered, I am curious how the new 360 Air Plus is working for both over the air TV and how it works for boosting campground wifi signals. Do you need to buy the Winegard router in order to boost wifi? If so, how has it worked? We get 15gb of hotspot use each, but streaming, updates and surfing (along with the daily paper) burns through that quickly.

Is the 360 Air Plus standard for 2021? I've been wondering about a factory installed antenna. I don't see any information on the website.

Yes, it is standard on Montana’s. I downloaded the 2021 Montana Brochure. I then save it in Books on my iDevices for reference. I assume, but not sure, that it is also on High Country’s.

Thanks! I have found the owners manuals leave a lot to be desired. I wonder what else comes on these things that isn't a feature listing on the website? This is our first RV, hard to get a baseline of what to expect.

I just downloaded the 2021 brochure http://https://www.keystonerv.com/brochures from here. It lists every spec and option. It may help.

Take a look at this install manual. It should answer all your questions. https://d38mfwkkxtsm2m.cloudfront.ne...ts/2452440.pdf

I looked at it, but it doesn’t say how it performs in real life. I just talked to a new Montana owner today that bought the Winegard router. He is disappointed in how it works. So, have others had the same experience. He did say the TV side worked fine.
