Owned my 2019 Leprechaun 319MB for one week now. Just now noticing a WIFI on/off rocker switch under the bottom of the cabinet above the kitchen sink. Is the motor home installed with a wifi service of some sort? What type of WIFI functionality is active when I flip the switch On? TIA for any info you can provide. Marc

My guess is that your RV has a roof-mounted router. Most likely it is a Winegard Connect 2., a WiFiRanger SkyPro, Sky3 or Sky4, or a Furrion device.

Tuning on the switch powers on the device, but it's not going to do anything for your internet connection until you connect it to a WiFi source. The procedure for that will depend on which device you have.

Thanks Joel! I'll go up top and hope to spot something. One other item to note, the switch is the same type of rocker switch design that all other factory installed switch's are say for turning lights on and off. Looks exactly the same except it glows blue when I turn it on. Any chance this was a factory installed option for the Leprechaun 319MB? I bought it used. Any Leprechaun 319MB owners out there who have the same switch and know why it is there? Marc

All the products I mentioned are installed as original equipment on thousands of new RVs every year. It's highly likely that yours was also.
