Large Amounts (20GB/day) of Mobile Bandwidth

When I'm not building Airstreams, I'm a filmmaker, so most of my "regular" income is derived from editing. To weather this Gig-Killing Epidemic, I have been editing Real Estate videos and virtual tours. I am getting ready to take a gig that will mean spending three weeks in the field (in the Airstream), so I won't have access to my studio bandwidth. I would really prefer to NOT give up the real estate income while I am traveling, but I'm having a hard time figuring out how I can maintain approximately 20 GB up and down each night while on the road.

I know there are a lot of people who work from their Airstreams on the road, but probably without needing *so much* bandwidth. Still, I'm hoping there are some who have found a workable solution that they might be willing to share.

Thanks in advance for any advice you can post!

The folks who seem to keep up with the latest and greatest are
The Mobile Internet Resource Center.
https://www.rvmobileinternet.com
They split their time between a boat and an RV.
What's available changes a lot quickly.

Looking forward to hearing what you find.

I'm also in a similar boat. Musician, but also tied to corporate America and conducting cyber security sales.

I'm interested in what you come up with.

This could be a good thread - https://www.airforums.com/forums/f45...an-203962.html

And I ran by a local ATT and they recommended a WHPI plan -

https://www.reddit.com/r/ATT/comment...the_new_plans/

I don't think the plan is talked about much, but they were quoting me 100/GB a month at $69.99 which may be doable.

This is referenced in another forum/thread as well, but it's pricey IMO.

Let me know what you're seeing? I missed the truly "unlimited" bandwagon, unfortunately.

Have You Checked Viasat?

For the type of data per day you're talking about - could be a viable option.
