Product Description
The Peplink MAX BR1 Mini receives wireless cellular signal and converts it to WiFi, creating a large WiFi “hotspot” in and around your RV, motorhome, motor coach, fifth wheel, trailer, van, or other vehicle. With the Peplink MAX BR1 Mini, computers, tablets, smart TVs, and other WiFi devices can use your cellular data plan to access the internet.
The Poynting PUCK-5 MIMO (multiple-input, multiple-output) antenna sends and receives signal to the cell tower through two simultaneous data streams, providing improved signal strength and quality. The same antenna also broadcasts 2.4 and 5 GHz WiFi signal through twin MIMO connections.

To use the Peplink MAX BR1 Mini as a cellular–WiFi router, you must have an activated nano-SIM card with a data plan. You can obtain a SIM card from your cellular carrier (Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, etc.) and add it as an additional line on your existing plan. You can also purchase SIM cards from many retailers, including Amazon, Walmart, Target, and Best Buy; the data plan will either have a recurring monthly payment or will be a prepaid “pay-as-you-go” plan.
The Peplink MAX BR1 Mini router works best in areas where outside cellular signal is fair or moderate. For locations with weak cellular signal, a cell signal booster may be a better option in your RV, trailer, or van. If you have any questions about which option is right for you, please feel free to contact Powerful Signal—we’ll be happy to help you!
The PUCK-5 has six mounting options. (Click here to download the PDF user guide with installation instructions.)

One year of PrimeCare service is included with your Peplink router. You can extend your service and enable additional features with the purchase of a PrimeCare+ subscription, available in the dropdown at the top of this page.
* Once purchased with a 2‑year or 4‑year PrimeCare plan, WiFi WAN and Ethernet WAN remain active features for the life of your router.
The Peplink SpeedFusion Connect app for smartphones lets you monitor and configure your router, switch between WANs, prioritize traffic by application, activate features like SpeedFusion Connect and hot failover, view reports, and share access with others to manage your router.
Using the SpeedFusion Connect app to check your router’s states and make changes is often faster and easier than logging into the router’s web-based dashboard or using InControl².
