Hi all,
Just purchased a Momentum 376THS and I'm trying to figure out how best to utilize the Compass Connect (CC) app. I'm not a tech genius, so my questions may seem pretty stupid to some, but I'm befuddled. I was able to download the One Control app on my Android and get connected with the RV. It seems the Momentum only uses Wi-Fi to connect, so my phone has to be on the RV Wi-Fi which doesn't have internet connectivity. While connected to the RV, my phone is fairly worthless for anything else. It over-rides using cell data or any available wi-fi that has internet capability. So I have to keep switching back and forth. There are several posts regarding adding a SIM card to the Wi-Fi controller (I use AT&T) and some that say a plan has to be purchased from LCI? I'm having a heck of a time finding information on the subject. Is it just assumed everyone knows how to operate this stuff?
My current AT&T data plan is unlimited, but doesn't allow for hotspotting or tethering. Assuming I adjust my plan to allow it, do I just need to get another sim card for the RV? I don't like the idea of spending extra $$ to have LCI service (additional data line) when we don't use it but a couple of times a month. What have you all done to use this system?
Any guidance would be helpful and appreciated,
-Mike
