Here is the step by step instructions ( detailed instructions ) covered in this video:
1. Un-screw the plastic cap - factory-ready Winegard Prep!
2. Pull all the wires out (12volts positive and negative wire AND the 3 wires from the Winegard 360+ Antenna). Be careful handling the antenna wires... they are very thin... handle with care.
3. Remove the mounting bracket from the Winegard gateway.
4. Use or remove the standard SIM card that came with the gateway
4. Stop by at your cell provider's store. Mine is AT&T. *The only RV Data plan left is the "pre-paid" version. I was not able to add it to my existing cell phone's data plan. I opted for a 50 GB per month without auto payment. This way, it is almost pay-per-use. Install your new sim card! SIM card’s size is standard aka mini.
5. Find a suitable spot for the mounting bracket. I used double-sided tape (doubled up - two stacks) and screws. Line the hole of the mounting bracket with the ceiling hole where the wires are coming from)
6. Pre-wire all! Splice the negative wire of the "whip" of the cable that came with the Winegard gateway with the negative of the RV. Get yourself another wire to splice the positive of the RV. Connect a female quick connect on the other end. Add shrink heat wrap to it (insulate).
7. I covered a summary on "how to wire" everything.
8. Tuck all the wires back in the hole.
9. Optional: I installed the on and off switch onto the Winegard gateway itself using Dremel and exacto knife.
10. Connect all the skinny Winegard 360+ wires using the stoplight mnemonic. Red, yellow, and green.
11. *Make sure the switch is in the OFF position! Connect the two positive wires to the switch (the outside prong is the RV's positive aka power source. The center prong of the switch is from the red wire of the whip.
12, Slide the Winegard gateway router to the mounting bracket.
13. Power it on! Wait 3-5 minutes a new WIFI ID containing "Winegard" and connected to it. The wifi ID and wifi password is on the sticker located on the back of the Winegard gateway. That is the sticker I blurred out in this video. Note: I changed the WiFi ID and Password anyway... but best to NOT make it visible...
Happy and Safe Travels!
