While camping has traditionally been about escaping the hustle and bustle of city life and enjoying the outdoors, the increasing reliance on technology (home office, social media, etc.) has meant that Wi-Fi is also an important factor for campers on campsites. Not only does it provide access to important information such as weather forecasts, navigation maps and email programmes, but of course also offers an entertainment component when the weather is bad (Netflix, Disney, Prime, ...).

WLAN on campsites
Comfort & convenience

Campers in their caravans or guests in their tents can use their mobile devices such as smartphones, tablets and laptops permanently thanks to stable Wi-Fi without having to rely on mobile internet. This allows them to stay in touch with their friends, check emails, use social media or stream online content.
Online reservations, digital maps (traffic, weather) and information about local attractions (opening times, prices) are thus more easily accessible.

Working while travelling

Many people have been able to work remotely (from their home office), especially since the pandemic. With stable Wi-Fi, the home office can be anywhere. Campers can also work from their tent or motorhome, which allows them to stay longer and be more flexible in the long term.

Safety & emergencies

A stable and reliable Wi-Fi network facilitates communication in emergencies. Guests and operators can call for help more quickly, as Wi-Fi can replace the mobile network and be used as a base for calls. In addition, important information can be retrieved from the internet (e.g. in the event of poisoning or an animal bite).

Entertainment & Education

Families with children also benefit from stable WiFi for accessing educational offers and entertainment programmes, especially on rainy days or after a long day in the fresh air.
For example, interesting information and educational videos on natural history, hiking trails or local sights can be easily accessed.

Business benefits for campsite operators

Google and Tripadvisor are just two ways to leave online reviews for campsites. The better the rating and thus the satisfaction of the guests, the more attractive the campsite is for new customers.
Stable Wi-Fi also offers the opportunity to generate additional sources of income, e.g. through Wi-Fi fees or premium services.
