This thing works GREAT!!!! I went from 0 service to 4 out of 5 bars of service with this thing. However, there are two things you need to know to get that kind of performance, so I will tell you those two things, and then post a how-to for how I set mine up. 1) You have to research which bands the booster will boost and compare them to which bands your cell phone provider (and your specific cell phone) uses. WeBoost (and others) sell different boosters for different bands and carriers. It would seem obvious - but if this booster does not boost the band(s) you need, then you will get no boost (which is the main complaint the negative reviewers post). 2) The antenna is DIRECTIONAL, which means you need to point it in the direction of the tower(s) you are going to be using. If you don't, it can drastically affect how well it works (or doesn't). How-To (or How-I-Did): Before I ordered: I used a free phone app for Android called "Network Cell Info Lite" (there are others that do the same thing), which would tell me 1) what bands my phone was using, and 2) what direction the towers were from my current location. With the app installed on my phone, I climbed up on a ladder until I finally got a signal (I got 0 signal on the ground, so climbing the ladder was a necessity). About 15 feet off the ground, I got about -110dbm of signal, and found that the phone would alternate between band 5 and band 13. I checked, and this booster does both of them, so I ordered it. I also checked, and it showed me the location of the towers, both of which were in the same direction, north and east of my location. When the WeBoost arrived (along with a $18 Wilson mast I bought to mount it to the side of my barn), I unpacked the unit and read the directions. I mounted the antenna on the side of the barn about 18 feet off the ground, and pointed the antenna roughly in the direction of where I knew the towers were from my pre-order checklist. Then I ran the cables, and setup the booster and the inside antenna as explained in the directions. I turned everything on, and was disappointed to find I got 0 signal boost. I pulled out the app again, and checked the location of the towers, and realized I had the antenna pointed about 20 degrees the wrong way. When I looked close, I also saw I had it probably 15 degrees out of line on the horizontal axis as well. That's what I get for 'eyeballing it'. Back up the ladder with the phone in hand, and this time I got it lined up within about 1-2 degrees of 'perfect' (at least according to where the phone said the towers are). OH SNAP, THAT WORKED!!!! The light on the booster unit went from red to green, and I found I suddenly had 4 out of 5 bars of 4G signal when standing in the exact same spot(s) where I previously had 0 signal at all (no 3g, no 4g, not even 1x). Phone worked fantastic, download speeds were great, etc. This specific unit has a higher level of boost (covers more area) than most, and I find that my phone works anywhere within about 100 feet of the inside antenna that re-transmits the boosted signal. So in summary - the antenna is pretty directional, so you need to get it lined up on the tower you want it to boost from pretty well, and you need to have a unit that boosts the band(s) your phone/provider uses. If you can do those two things, this thing works GREAT. If you can't do those two things, you may have a less than happy experience with this thing (and probably any booster, as they all work on the same principles). Hope this helps.

I’ll start by saying that 5 or 6 years ago I bought the prior version of this WeBoost MultiRoom. I installed it at my house, where I had very bad cell reception inside, but outside or at an upstairs window I got OK reception. I bought this version for the similar directional antenna, better gain, and the larger coverage area for inside my new home. Last year I moved, and the old WeBoost stayed at the old house. For the last 13 months I have struggled with dropped calls, poor data rates, loss of data connectivity. I needed to solve the same problems I had before, so I went with a brand that lasted me 4 years or more and did a wonderful job the whole time. First, I did a dry run or ‘soft test’ by placing the antenna on the upstairs deck rail and running the cable through a doorway. Worked pretty well, in my kitchen I went from one bar 3G 1MBPS download to 2 bars 4G/LTE and 10MBPS download, which was as good or better than I expected. I installed the directional antenna outside under the eaves of my house, and used OpenSignal app to get a rough idea of which direction to point the antenna, routed the ouside cable under the eaves and used the included flat connector to come through a slider window. WORKED GREAT. Once inside I mounted the interior antenna on the slope of my interior roof, pointing down at about 45 degrees across the kitchen and living room. Signal test after final placement was 16.2MBPS and phone shows 3 to 4 bars of LTE. Perfect - as good as I get in town on a good day. Note: My install is NOT perfectly in line with the instruction book. The two antennas are at the same height, and I only have 20 feet between the outside antenna and the inside antenna, but they do face away from each other. The book calls for as much as 50’ separation, and encourages 20’ of vertical separation, but as far as I can tell I have no significant interference and the speed increase was 10X to 15X improvement. I even have LTE at the other end of the house, and 3 to 4 bars of 3G in the basement where I was lucky to show any connection at all before. The multi-room unit with directional antenna was priced higher than I liked, and I will be watching it pretty closely for the next few weeks to make sure performance holds, but if it does as well as my last one... I will count it a success and well worth the extra money. I do not have a 5G signal in my area, and have an older IPhone 6S, so it may be a year or three before I use that feature, but its nice to know the new units will also work for 5G when it comes my way.

So I purchased this for our house in the Phoenix area. We have plenty of coverage most of the places around us, but for whatever reason the signal in our house was not that great. Our phones would not get better than 1 bar and we would lose phone calls and our data was slower than I thought it should be (of course we are on wifi all the time). After talking with ATT over and over and over and over, it was obvious they were not going to do anything to help us out so I decided to give this a try. To be honest I was kind of hoping it would not work since it was $550 and I was not to excited about spending that kind of money on a device to make a cell phone work! But working from home I live on the phone and using WiFi calling never seemed to give the same overall quality, was delayed, etc. Just to give you a quick idea of how I found the towers, since we are all iOS users, there was not a great app for it and you can't get a great signal meter on the iPhone anymore even with going into the test mode of the phone. This may not be the best way, but it sure worked good for me. I have seen many towers when I am out and about so I decided to drive to each tower that I have seen within a couple of miles of me, and mark them on a map if my signal on my phone was really good when close to it. Each tower I got to, I would turn airplane mode on and back off to make sure it got a fresh signal and if the signal was not that strong, I assumed it was not a tower for me. After getting those marked on a map, I went home and opened up google maps and found the location of each tower, then i used the measure feature (right click on the tower to go to measure) and drew a straight line to the location on my house I was going to place the antenna. After doing this and being in Satellite view, it gave me a very good line of sight and direction to point the outside antenna. I mounted the outside pole on the peak of the roof since that was where it was going to live, and then ran all the wires through doorways before I got crazy drilling holes, etc. Having the outside antenna mounted is important though so that you know it did not end up hanging down and pointed at the ground when you are inside checking signal. After getting things hooked up, I turned on the repeater, cycled airplane mode on my phone and BAM I instantly had full bars! You can see on the images that the signal increased and the speed test was a huge difference! I decided to not even try the other towers since this one worked so well for us. I have not checked other providers yet as we all have ATT so I did not worry about it that much but I do have the ability to rotate the outside antenna pretty easy if I need to. The inside piece looks like a doorbell or something so it's not that "ugly" and we have it facing out into the larger area of our home. Our home is about 2100 sq ft and it seems to have made a big difference no matter were we go as long as we are not behind the inside antenna. Even directly beside it and around 15' away we still get a very nice solid 3 bars and calls are perfectly clear. The main reason I did not give it 5 stars is I would like to see a few things different for the price. 1. Would be nice if the amplifier had more than just lights on it. Seems like it would not be hard to put an LCD display that gives a bit more info rather than different color lights. I know they have commercial units that do this from Wilson, but for $550 I think it should. 2. I would also like the ability to put more inside antennas, maybe ceiling mounted ones in different rooms. Now to be fair, I have not asked Wilson about this yet, but I do not see anything on their website that states I could. 3. I wish there was a better way to search for and find your outside cell phone towers. I know this is not their fault, but maybe they could somehow work with a company and develop an app. I mean this is their primary business of celling cell phone repeaters. 4. I wish the price was not so high for the features we get. Again as I had mentioned before I was shocked how well it did work. It has only been in for a day but so far it's been solid. Time will tell and if anything changes I will be sure to come back and update the review.

Got it for my parents who live in a rural area. They get 5G occasionally, but the signal fluctuates between SOS and 2 bars. Nothing consistent enough to do anything data-related. Instagram would load a couple reels and show maybe 3-5sec of a clip. Basic webpages *might* come in after a few minutes. They had one window in the house that they would sit next to do any FT or phone calls, but it was intermittent at best. After installing the receiving antenna about 20’ above the roof line and the internal antenna in the main living area, we had consistent 2-4 bars of 5G on both AT&T and Verizon. I was able to FT anywhere with no lag and even used my personal hotspot to watch YouTube videos on the TV. Their house is small, but it seems to work well between walls about 20’ away in basically any direction. Beyond about 20’ and the connection drops significantly.

This is a really great product! (B07VG9ZZMV) My install location is tricky because the only tower that supports my carrier (T-Mobile MVNO) is 8.8 miles away across a hilly area. I had bought a different booster before this (B091CH2Y59), and I ended up returning it within the 30-day window because it couldn't boost the outdoor signal enough to be usable inside the house uless I was within 5 feet of the indoor antenna. I ended up adding a 15 foot mast on top of my garage peak and it was still not a strong enough signal. I used that same mast to mount the log period antenna for this system, and was able to get an adequate signal. The install was fairly easy, I did have to drill through a couple walls to get everything installed. The F-style connectors provided (think cable TV coax) made it very easy to hook up and only required 3/8 inch holes in the wall. Once everything was hooked up, I was getting very decent signal in my living room area, and the surrounding rooms as well. I'd say the signal is usable up to 20 feet away from the indoor antenna. But mostly that is because the outdoor signal from my roof is so very low. I can barely register any connection at all from my phone when standing on the roof. Now I am receiving SMS and phone calls pretty much everywhere in our living area. This product was more expensive than the first one by almost $300 ($601 vs. $297), but the performance of this product made the difference! I was even able to add additional length to one of the cables with an extra piece of RG-6 cable and an F-type coupler in order to place the amplifier where I wanted it.

The item is listed as like new but it's not it's used and not Amazon standards of like new condition. It's was missing parts and scuffed in multiple places and was not in it's original box. It also doesn't work correctly, light is green and everything is setup correctly but doesn't do what it's suppose to."Used - Like New or Open Box: An item in like new condition, without any scratches or scruffs and in perfect working condition. The original protective wrapping may be missing, but the original packaging is intact and in good condition with minor damage possible. The item should be free of any defects and in perfect working order, just as it would be had you purchased a brand new item, just the package is no longer sealed. Instructions are included."

I wanted to give a 1 star review since the device made my connection worse. My experience with it has been a real joy *sarcasm* however it seems to work OK after adjusting it way too many times. I attempted the soft install but the cables are way too short in order to position the antennas to test with. On that note, there's no such thing as a soft install since you will have to mount the external antenna somehow and make sure it's pointing to the tower. If it's on the eves of the roof then... you have to install the mast pole it can mount to. The only soft install part is the booster and the internal antenna. The only way to soft install the external antenna is if you have poles already on the roof on the side that you need to point the directional antenna. Initial install with running the booster and antenna in the garage didn't work. Even though it was showing 3/4 bars when I had been getting a consistent 1-2/4 bars; it degraded my connection. Interestingly enough, the up speeds actually improved however it crippled the down speeds. Back to the drawing board... I didn't feel like pulling cables out of holes that I had drilled into the soffit leading into the garage so I decided to order a couple 6ft RJ6 (in the case that I would be returning this and trying a different brand). The new placement would be the wife's craft room through the window with the provided flat window cable. Surprisingly, I noticed an improvement compared to the garage install. Sadly, I had already tested this location and didn't see an improvement early on. Makes me wonder if the new RJ6 cables along with the flat window cable helped with the improvement. Strange... but it seems to be the case. The install manual shows the external antenna using both 15ft cables with the window cable. Who knows... # Performance Before Booster - Around 5 - 6 Mbps down and around 2 - 3 Mbps up - Around 25 ms ping - 1/2 out of 4 bars on iPhone x # Performance After Booster (After MANY Adjustments) - Around 6 - 8 Mbps down and around 3 - 5 Mbps up - Ping time increased about 2x # Pros - Increased Sprint LTE down/up speeds. T-Mobile and Sprint are in the process of merging so not sure what to expect. # Neutral - Should be future proof for 5G but I have read that it depends on if the 5G band changes. We've already seen what happened with 4G vs LTE. The carriers are more than likely to introduce their own band so is it really 5G future proof? There's no firmware update feature with the booster so I doubt it will be supported. # Cons - Increased the ping latency. Sacrifice for better down/up speeds. - Cables are too short for real world installation, specifically in a 2 story home. Might be perfect for a single story or ranch style home. - Spent way too much time to get it somewhat working. Competitors such as HiBoost have an app to manage the booster. It includes utilities to help with signal quality and ways to manually adjust the band gain. This product doesn't provide any insight besides the colored lights so it's like driving without a speedometer or monitoring weight without a scale. Going back to the 5G "future proof", if they had an app that could push firmware updates then they would be way ahead of the competition and I'd be more confident in the 5G support claims. Being able to disable certain frequencies would be a plus since the antenna is directional anyway and would help limit the unnecessary RF noise. WeBoost seems to be the most popular brand and I'm shocked they haven't created their own app yet. They have to recommend other apps to help find signal to the closest tower and instructions on reading the dBm. - The up to 5k sq ft is based on the strength of the outside signal from the tower to the external antenna. You can research the coverage estimates online via their manual. These estimates are not included in the product details. It's on the box but that side isn't shown in the photos. The 2 of 4 bars I get outside, the range is estimated to be about 1500 sq ft. # Conclusion The product is OK - 3 stars. Purchased the booster just in case the internet goes out and to help with the dropped calls. I think the booster is overpriced just to get 1 or 2 additional Mbps and up to 5k sq ft range but time will tell specifically with dropped calls. I have a few other ideas I will try out and see if it improves anything. If it doesn't improve and I continue to have mixed feelings with the product, I will have to return it and order the HiBoost. The 5G future support claims is another reason I purchased it but after dealing with the product, I doubt it will work with 5G. The HiBoost supports up to 10k sq ft for almost the same price... As always, I will update the review as I gain more experience.

I watched an install video prior to getting the device. Watch some of the videos before you get started because it will simplify your install. Once it arrived and was unpackaged, I attached the antenna to my 6' Directv mast, pointed it at a cell tower about 2 miles away, ran some RG-11 cabling that I purchased separately to a window and used the included flat cable to enter the house via a window. I used an included 15' run of cable to take the outdoor input to the booster and another 15' run of cable went to the antenna. I basically installed it in the reverse order that was recommended; there is no point in positioning the indoor antenna if you can't reach it with the cable that you have. I powered it on and went to a full 5 bars in much of a 3000 square foot house. This took 45 minutes and the only thing that I looked at was a diagram for the outdoor antenna mounting assembly - this isn't too difficult. I am a t-mobile customer. T-mobile will provide a free signal booster which I had used - I live in an earth contact home with a metal roof, so very little outside signal goes into the home. The t-mobile booster was giving me around 4 megabits per second transfer speed that fluttered up to 6 megabits and to as low as 3 megabits per second. Not bad, but my wife is going to start working from home in a job that requires at least 10 megabits per second speed. How'd the weBoost do? It boosted us to 14 megabits per second up and 12 megabits per second up - and these are very stable, reliable speeds. My wife can apply for the job! Being able to move the antenna near her work spot is a big help and this flexibility is exactly why I selected this model. At any rate, you can expect to at least double your speeds over a freebie t-mobile booster. I am a bit torn on permanently mounting / wiring the weBoost. I have an existing aerial antenna on the roof, so it would not take much to mount it there, but I also travel via an RV and keeping the weBoost where it is easy to load-up and travel with is pretty tempting. I will probably bury the cable and stick to the low impact (but rather ugly) through the window install. CONS: The amount of cable provided is 60' total which is totally inadequate for most of us. If you anticipate a long outdoor run, get yourself some RG-11 cable; it is extremely well shielded and will keep electronic noise from wrecking your install. (I used a 75' run of RG-11 - expect to pay about .50 per foot.) And the cable that they do provide is the more lightly shielded RG-6 which is probably more suitable indoors as the cable is more supple and flexible. The cabling solution comes with a male to male coax connector. You will probably also find a double-female coax connector handy - it is somewhat annoying to pay $550 for a device where they don't include a helpful $1 component. IMO the install order as written isn't ideal. It assumes that you'll be able to reach the indoor antenna with the meager amount of cabling provided. Good luck with that. Note that these cons are pretty minor gripes about accessory items. I am very pleased with the core components; the directional outdoor antenna, the easy to reposition indoor antenna that has an arm to help it stand, and the booster are all fantastic, high quality components. I expect to get many years of service out of the weBoost and will get much more out of my unlimited data plan as a result. Time to go get an HDMI adapter for my smartphone - I can finally steam Amazon Prime video.

Para los usuarios de telefonía celular en México. Este producto sirve para amplificar la banda GSM sin usar Wi-Fi. Me resolvió un problema de señal que Telcel no atendió. Este es un excelente producto para aquellas personas que tengan problemas de falta o intermitencia señal. Sin embargo requiere una instalación de una antena con un poste debidamente orientada a la torre de servicio celular de tu proveedor de telefonía móvil (hay aplicaciones que buedes instalar en tu teléfono para orientar la antena). Además requiere una instalación de cable coaxial RG-6 o RG-11 a una antena dentro del domicilio como si contrataras un servicio de Internet. Pero hecho esto adiós a la falta de señal. Lo que si recomendaría buscar una buena oferta porque es un equipo algo caro.

De no tener señal a tener el 100%, funciona fantástico con Telcel y AT&Y

He comprado 2 signal booster de otras marcas que de inmediato emitieron la señal que requeríamos pero en este caso elegí este producto por que queríamos algo de mayor calidad y mayor potencia pero por algún motivo jamás emitió absolutamente ninguna señal a pesar de que el dispositivo principal siempre tuvo el foco indicador encendido en color Verde, y lo peor es que la aplicación para controlarlo no está disponible en México.

No sirve para nada, se intentó instalar de varias formas, calibrar, etc y simplemente no funciona.
