Log Periodic Directional Yagi Antenna 15dbi Gain for 3G 4G LTE XLTE AWS IDEN PCS 698MHz-2700MHz Wide Band Full Band

I bought two of these to upgrade reception and bandwidth for our cellular internet service. I mounted them sideways on an old free standing light fixture first, keeping them close to the modem. This was meant simply to try them out, but these worked so well inside that I never bothered to mount them outside as originally planned. I might still do that next spring, but for now, I am extremely pleased. Our cell tower (ATT) is about 2 miles away through a forest and throughput has improved from about ~20mbps (but unsteady with frequent drop-outs) to a steady 35mbps.

Very nice all-band cell booster antenna. Huge upgrade over the OEM antennas, at about 44" long. Smart size saving packaging and you easily put the 2 parts together without tools. Worked great with my Wilson booster at Cabin deep in woods. It is very important to take the time to properly aim this, like all yagi antennas. because you are long way from the tower. A slight movement can make a big difference in signal strength. To best aim, I use a pigtail directly from the antenna to the Jetpack's external antenna ( be sure your hotspot has an external antenna input and plan ahead to have the right pigtail setup when you do this) and then run Okla speed tests on my cell phone. Once it is zeroed in and tightened down, then attach to the 50 Ohm low loss cable and turn on the booster.

Totally dependent on your own unique situation. If you have a least some signal this will help on your booster. It you have nothing in the first place forget it.In our situation we went from using one of the generic WeBoost plastic triangle boosters antennas that are rated -from like 7dBi to 9dbi gain to this one that has a 15 dBi gain.We were getting 1 to 2 bars 4GLTE and sketchy downloads and calls with the generic antenna. With this 2 to 4 bars, a bit better download speed and more solid calls and connections.YMWV

I have purchased my share of antennas for LTE testing and this stands out as one of the best. Speeds and latency are slightly worse than my 250 dollar Parabolics while being much smaller and easier to work with.I would say these are well worth the extra cost over typical LPDAs, it's probably the best antenna you will buy before stepping up to a Parabolic which are not at all necessary for most people.Pros:Excellent BuildHigh Speeds and LatencyEasy to work with vs ParabolicsCons:No Horizontal Adjustment, you'll be stuck at 90 degrees from the pole. Technically that is how an antenna should be, but we all know there are some times where you'd like to angle them up or down. However I will say shooting out of a valley to a tower 5 miles away with zero angle has exceeded my expectations.I would highly recommend this antenna, I have owned 4+ different types of antenna for LTE and this is my favorite one.

In my situation old antenna -83 to -93db..New antenna -90 to -107db.Tried for 1 week and put old antenna back. I am not line of site and probably 5 to 7miles from tower.

The media could not be loaded. Honestly I already had the WIRENG MIMO antennas I thought for the price were the best thing out there for $400. I was wrong! These antennas surpass them! I live 12 miles from cell tower and shoot through trees. The DBs were slightly better and the strength was more stable in my comparison video on YouTube. These antennas are SO sweet! Worth the value of $120 for two for the cost! Highly recommend for your rural internet solution. Just make sure if you run them to booster or mofi you get the FME female to N female adapters for them and you are golden! Great great job on these for my situation! Use2 antennas on a mofi or similar MIMO SIM card router! I was getting about 21-25 mbs on WIRENG and these get 26-32 mbs down consistently! Game and stream all day! Remember get 2 antennas to make MIMO, boosters are only really good for voice hence why I have a booster separate but technically don’t need.

I am impressed with this antenna... a little pricey but it simply works well. I am using it on a Game Trail Camera that was not even getting 1 bar signal (it had zero)... I put this antenna on a tree... used my compass to point it where the cell tower was 10nmiles away... and instantly I got 2 bars. You really have to appreciate how remote and signal starved the area I put this in actually is. I have tried other brands YAGI and others - this is the ONLY design that works and works well.
