The RV IT Guy is a vendor that provides remote technical support services targeted to the RV, cruising, nomad, and related communities. They also offer unlimited data plans in conjunction with their technical support service.
Plan Information

The service includes a pre-configured tech support "beacon" that acts as a Wi-Fi router and contains troubleshooting tools. The beacon allows US-based IT professionals to remotely troubleshoot devices on the customer's network. Customers with problems or technical difficulties can flip the help switch on the beacon, or call The RV IT Guy operations center for remote troubleshooting and assistance.
The service is subscription-based month-to-month service with no contract. The set-up price includes rental of the "beacon" so there is no equipment to purchase. When a customer cancels service, the RV IT Guy will send the customer a shipping label to return the beacon.
