I want to replace my WiFi Ranger Sky4

[Almostblind]

I'm not sure if this is the proper category or if it should be in Appliances or Upgrades.
I have a 2021 Rockwood Mini Lite 2305S. It came with the WiFi Ranger Sky4 mounted on the roof. I've never had to use it until recently when we were at Camp Verde in Arizona. The campground had wifi but we were too far away and down the hill from the antenna. I tried and tried to get the Ranger to work, with no luck.
Fast forward, when we got home I tried to do a factory reset, again with no luck connecting to my home wifi. I got on the roof and removed the cover. Both antennas were unscrewed and the computer board was rusty and corroded. Oveously, completely ruined.
I am looking for either a simple replacement or something else that would work better. I usually us my phone as a hotspot to connect to a laptop and Roku, but I have to get a wifi connection or good Verizon cell signal.
Any advice is welcome.

This is what I use:

You can really reach out with these.

I don't think the Wifi Rangers ever work. There was a thread on it here not too long ago.

I also have one of these I use for when I don't have to reach a distant access point.

Well I have one that is basically new i took it off mine when we first got it and replaced with the winegard 360+. I already had the gateway and was paying for the sim card so I just swapped it out.

Moved thread from the General Tech and Repair section to the Appliances and Electronics sub-forum since the OP's questions are specific to Electronics and are not general tech questions.

How do you like the 360+? I was thinking of going with that one, but some of the other threads said that it was junk.

I absolutely love it. I know a bunch of other folks hate it, and call it junk, but I have never had an issue and usually always have service either over the air antenna of streaming. I will tell you that if you get it, go to your cell phone store and get another line added to your account for the SIM card, unlimited streaming and no slowdown for whatever you are paying vs. what wineglass wants to charge you.
