Cellular Extender

I installed the cell phone booster in my home work shop. I only had one bar on my vorizan net work. I installed it the way the directions showed and now I’ve have four bars all the time. But it must be installed the way the directions show!! Thank you for a good product.

hated the plastic they use on the coaxilbut increased reception inside my pole barn by 2 to 4 bars

I walked around wit a phone to find the best location for the receiving antenna.Tried to put the inside antenna centrally, but it is only good for about 25 feet from the antenna, not 6000 sq ft so 50x50 is about 2500 sq ft.The display yielded little information except the few bands to actually be amplified, and if the antennas were to close together, it gave an error message. the level readings never changed for me.My CDMA phone gave a couple of bars and could watch video using CDMA.The GSM phone had swings in signal strength. (from 5 bars to none, but it worked.)The area was surrounded by high power lines and was a house in the country that had reception in a spot in the yard.Ended up putting the antenna on the TV antenna pole.I am sad the display on the device was not useful for me to find the best reception. I thought I had paid the money for one that was smarter.

Easy to install, I did exactly as the directions said. Mounted the antenna 25 feet up on my roof, had the booster and indoor antenna 40 feet away, turned it on and my internet streaming stopped and started loading. I uploaded 2 pics first is my wifi with out the booster plugged in and the second is with the booster plugged in. Yea it increases my upload speed but slowed my download speeds. I don’t upload much so that is not a benefit to me. I will be returning this

This signal booster set looked pretty intimidating when I first opened the box but after examining it I think it will be a relatively easy installation. I haven't used it yet because the weather is just not suitable for climbing on the roof and doing electrical work. The antenna is heavier and sturdier than I thought it would be and should hold up well. The cords are long enough to reach the length of a pretty large home and other than that it pretty much just uses coaxial connectors to connect everything and there is a mounting bracket for the antenna. One thing that is very nice about this set is that it has a LCD screen to tell you when you have the best signal and what working mode it is in etc. I'm hoping that I can mount this to a vent pipe on our roof top and get good signal strength there but if not I may have to put the antenna on a pole. Time will tell and I will be back to give a report on how it does.Ok, I'm back. The weather finally cleared and I got it all mounted. That's the good news. The bad news is that it just doesn't work here. The signal strength is 0. The screen shows that all is working well but still nothing. What is puzzling to me is that some people can make phone calls from inside our home and they are clear with good reception. That's why I went ahead and ordered this booster, I had hopes that it might work. Maybe it's the carrier that we use. I'm going to experiment with friends phones and see if they get the boosted signal. I'm not going to reduce my rating of this product because it is obviously a good product that will work for most people, just not for me in this location at the present time, but I'm not done yet....

The cell phone booster kit allows me to get a full signal in a room that drops calls in my house. I was hoping that this kit would be easy to transport if I just did a "soft setup" without fully mounting the hardware. A soft setup does work but it is not nearly as easy to take on a vacation to remote areas for better reception. The antenna is larger and bulky and not as modern looking as some which I do not find as visually appealing. However, this may also be a benefit because it extends higher into the air while some antennas are not able to be mounted this way on a pole. You will need to have your own extending poles in some locations. I was able to use this without an extension pole. It works but is best for permanent mounting and if you do not mind the appearance.

5 stars because of the quality of the equipment, but it did not meet our needs through no fault of the equipment manufacturer. In Florida the pole legally cannot be higher than 30ft in residential applications and our home is in a low lying area of a place with lots of hills so any tower signal is skipping right over our property to make it even more difficult for equipment such as this, we're not directly in the path of coverage.Check cell mapper BEFORE buying any booster. Cell mapper let's you view the precise directional coverage for every cell tower, for every carrier, on every band the tower is emitting down to the individual parcel level. If your house is not in the path of the signal then no booster of any kind will work for you. I only just found out about the site tonight when researching why this one was not working either, so again this failure is on me, not the product!This is the 2nd booster I've ordered that did not increase signal in any way. I currently have AT&T, which is on bands this booster does support, but I live out in the country and have had awful signal for years. Have to use WiFi calling because of 1 to zero bars in my garage & outside. Had I not switched carriers from Verizon I'm confident this one would have worked well as it was the only carrier that worked for anyone in our neighborhoods.Long story short, my 5 star review is based solely on the quality of the equipment I ordered, not my cellular provider, or my city's lack of infrastructure!
