Long Range Internet Access for Boats and RVs Revolutionized with the Wirie Pro

Island Consulting has introduced an affordable "all-in-one" internet product with The Wirie pro by adding worldwide 3G and 4G data support to its popular long range WiFi systems, offering the ultimate flexibility to get online from the boat or RV.

Island Consulting, Inc. has introduced an affordable “all-in-one” internet product with The Wirie pro. By redesigning its product line from the ground up and using the latest technology available, the company has added worldwide 3G and 4G data support to its popular long range WiFi systems. Having the ability to switch seamlessly between a remote WiFi connection and a 3G or 4G data connection provides a level of flexibility and convenience never before available to smaller yachts and RVs.

The Wirie pro builds on the success of Island Consulting’s first and second generation Wirie products. It includes a wireless access point (router), the best long range WiFi adapter available, and a worldwide commercial grade 3G/4G router. The Wirie pro continues the tradition of being a fully waterproof, self-contained unit, powered by a 12-24V DC electrical cable, which eliminates the need for Ethernet and USB cables. No software is needed to run The Wirie pro.  Completely redesigned, a single user interface manages the onboard local network, long-range remote WiFi connections, and 3G/4G data connections.

3G and 4G data services are becoming more prevalent in the cruising community as their popularity and accessibility has spread throughout the world. They typically provide a level of reliability and speed not always found with WiFi connections. With The Wiriepro, users can easily choose either option based on their location and availability. This offers them the ultimate flexibility to get online, without the complications of similar systems currently on the market, and at a very competitive price.

The Wirie pro allows all WiFi enabled devices, like laptops, smart phones, tablets, chart plotters, and printers to connect to the local WiFi network and in turn share the long range internet connection from either a remote WiFi network, or a 3G/4G data connection.

All of The Wirie products are built with high quality marine grade components and are easy to use and install. A one-year warranty, 10-day return policy, and suburb customer service are standard.
