How to get internet on the train?
Hello!
We are going on a train tour. We need internet. But how to get it there if the train will travel through forests and fields where there is no connection at all. After consulting with the expedition members, we found several ways to solve the problem:
1. 3G/4G unlimited.
This method involves the use of an antenna for receiving 4G in the Caucasian outback and for receiving digital TV.
2. Satellite Internet.
This method involves using geostationary satellites to access the Internet and watch satellite TV (Tricolor TV, MTS, etc.).
3. Offline Internet.
This method involves the use of content previously downloaded to a portable server and the use of IP packet redirection to access virtual Internet sites.
4. Optical Internet.
This method involves the use of a contact network of an electric locomotive for laying an optical cable and distributing the Internet over the air (as in the Moscow metro).
5. Radio or Wi-Fi internet.
This method involves the use of technologies such as Wi-Fi, DECT, Bluetooth and other Internet transmission technologies over the air. The judge lies in the fact that radio transmitters are fixed on multi-storey buildings, and receivers on the train, and then everything is in the air.
Technical requirements:
1. Efficiency, i.e. not even necessarily a stable and fast connection, the main thing is that it just works.
2. Use of IP-TV and IP-telephony.
3. Ability to use VPN (or SSH Tunnel) to access local networks.
4. Watch videos on Youtub at least in 480p.
Which of the above methods is best to use or do you have other ways to implement the project?! Please help without being ignored!!!

As a technician who maintains some systems on long-distance trains, I can say that there is no magic pill here! We have about 300 wagons with our systems in different directions. Communication in transit via 3G/4G is crappy everywhere except at hubs and in cities. If you want to improve it somehow - take a GSM modem with an external antenna, but this will not save much either :-(
The best way to be in touch is to buy or rent a satellite terminal or phone ~ 300 rubles per day. Phones and tariffs here - iridium- russian.ru
With data transfer it is more difficult - only 3G / 4G, and as I described
above.Total: for you only 3. Offline Internet ... Plus, at the stops, it is very possible that you will have 3 / 4G.
There is one thing here - you will practically not have 4G near large stations - the cells are overloaded, if there is a connection during the day / evening, at night.
Use the Internet with mobile.
Receiving satellite Internet on the train is unrealistic due to the fact that there may be a contact network or a tunnel ceiling above the car.
1. 3G/4G unlimited.
This method involves the use of an antenna for receiving 4G in the Caucasian outback and for receiving digital TV.
In the outback or in the mountains there will not be such a connection that will allow you to comfortably use the Internet.2. Satellite Internet.
This method involves using geostationary satellites to access the Internet and watch satellite TV (Tricolor TV, MTS, etc.).
And a platform to correct guidance as the train moves?4. Optical Internet.
This method involves the use of a contact network of an electric locomotive for laying an optical cable and distributing the Internet over the air (as in the Moscow metro).BradSome kind of fantasy. And in the subway, the Internet is heardnot atall not quite like that.5. Radio or Wi-Fi internet.
This method involves the use of technologies such as Wi-Fi, DECT, Bluetooth and other Internet transmission technologies over the air. The judge lies in the fact that radio transmitters are fixed on multi-storey buildings, and receivers on the train, and then everything is in the air.
And do you plan to have many multi-storey buildings there along the route to Pyatigorsk?3. Offline Internet.
This method involves the use of content previously downloaded to a portable server and the use of IP packet redirection to access virtual Internet sites.
The only reasonable option, if you really need it, is to pump up serials on an external screw, kill time on the road.
1. 3G/4G unlimited.
