I took my Sundance 3300RLB out of storage over the weekend and will be taking it on a trip this weekend -- first one with the family. I need Internet for work and I need to work on the trip, so I made my first mod with some pointers from this forum.
I purchased a wireless router, 3db amp, and Wilson truck antenna from the 3GStore. The antenna went on the ladder with the cable running through the refrig vent. I removed the microwave oven to fish a wire to a 12-volt light as a source for the router and amp. I added a power switch that is mounted in the cabinet of the microwave and fished all of the wires up through the top of cabinet. There is just enough room on the top for the router and amp to sit and this was a good place for the antenna wire to end up because it is next to the refrig. I will try to post pictures later.
The mod went better than expected -- I didn't break anything in the process
I still need to find a way to hold the antenna cable down on the roof -- there is about 6 feet of cable lying on the roof between the refrig vent and the ladder. I was thinking of using a few small strips of Dicor Roof Patch to hold it in place.
Anyone see problems with this approach?
