The sky's the limit as they say.
I have an AT&T mobile hotspot and an external Mimo antenna that I suction cup to the side of the rig. It has worked quite well for us and I haven't had a need for any booster setup yet.
There is a lot of info on Techno RV about what's available and getting the most out of what you have.
Just sharing my experience... I used the Wifi Camp Pro for a few years. When it works it works pretty good. But, the "tube" (the part that the antenna attaches to) seemed problematic. I had to replace it about every year, and they kept saying it was due to water getting in around the antenna. Yet, I had installed it as directed with their outdoor tape, etc. I hesitate to recommend the Camp Pro, other than it is a good "starter system" and relatively easy to use.

The Ubiquiti is rock solid by comparison and able to boost weaker signals far more than the Camp Pro.
