The Weboost Drive Reach RV is a small cellular signal booster that is easy to setup and use. The design is good as the Weboost itself isn't very large and should be something that can be mounted just about anywhere inside your RV or travel trailer. It's case has a solid construction feel to it. You only have to connect 3 cables to it, the outside antenna cable, the inside antenna cable and the power cable. This makes it incredibly easy to setup. Mount the outside antenna on your RV's or travel trailer's ladder, mount the Weboost inside where you want it mounted, and set the inside antenna in your RV or travel trailer's living space. Run the cables and plug the power cable into the Weboost and that's it. The cables that come with it are small diameter cables so running the outside antenna cable to the Weboost shouldn't be too bad. If you don't want to run the outside antenna cable yourself or are worried about doing that, you can get an RV service department to do it. There is a light indicator on the front of the Weboost that indicates various statuses so you will easily know what state it is in. It also comes with a spring for the outside antenna and mounting hardware to mount the outside antenna on the ladder of your RV or travel trailer. Minus the running of the outside antenna cable, this is about as simple as it can get. It's also 5G ready which means you won't need to upgrade to a different model anytime soon. One of the locations that I sometimes go in a nearby National Forest is where my cell phone gets only 1 bar of signal, but with the Weboost, I'm now able to get 2 bars of signal at that location. I moved my toy hauler about 100 yards away from that location which allowed me to get 3 bars with the Weboost. So far I am really liking the Drive Reach RV. I don't have to worry as much about where I can be in a national forest or what RV parks I can go to and still get my work laptop connected. This opens up a lot of places for me to visit and still be able to get connected. I would recommend it to anyone looking into getting a cell booster for their RV, travel trailer, 5th wheel, or toy hauler and especially to those who work remotely from their RV and depend on cell service to get connected.

First let's talk about what really matters, does this actually boost cell signal? I got to test this out during a weekend camping trip in my travel trailer at a State Park. Unlike RV parks, State Parks are more about nature and escaping the real world. This means less amenities, no wi-fi, and horrible cell coverage. This particular park was next to a small town with a population of 4500, so it does get some coverage, but it was spotty. With no booster, my phone (a Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra 5G through T-Mobile) would continuously jump from 1-2 bars of 5G to absolutely NO signal at all and everything in between. With this booster setup inside my trailer, my service did in fact improve. My signal continued to jump around, but instead of going all the way down to zero, it jumped anywhere between a few bars of 4G up to 2-3 bars of 5G. That said, it didn't jump around as much. Overall it was a steadier signal. But that steadier signal is a bit deceiving. When it comes to talk and text, aka using your phone as a regular phone, this booster works well and you don't have to worry as much about being completely disconnected from the world. However, when using apps that require data (youtube, facebook, instagram, etc.), it's not as reliable. So if you're in an area where you're already having trouble getting data, this booster isn't going to improve it all that much. Not that it doesn't improve it, I just still had issues with my apps freezing up or taking a lot of time to load data. So if you're someone who has to work remotely, I wouldn't rely on this booster to give you a signal good enough, or reliably enough, to work nomadically. But for minimal use, or just to at least be able to call someone if needed and not be completely cut-off, then this works as advertised. And even in the product FAQs it'll tell you that there has to be at least some signal for it to boost, so if your phone doesn't work at all without it, chances are it won't work with it either. On the hardware side of things, setting it all up is fairly simple. The hardest part is really just figuring out the best way to route the cable from the outside antenna to the booster. You want to be able to use it during all types of weather but obviously you have to make sure wherever the cable's entry point is into your RV, that it doesn't let water through. I actually found a good temporary spot going through my range hood exhaust fan, which has an exterior vent made to allow for it to be open even in rain. I figured out how to make it permanent too while only drilling a couple holes in the vent and range hood itself, so I don't have to worry about going through any of the actual exterior structure. I want to also add that the main cable for the outside antenna is separate, so the antenna itself only has a very short cable on it. I mention this because I had the weBoost for trucks and that one had the full length cable as part of the antenna. That made taking the antenna off and on tedious because of how it twists the cable. That problem doesn't exist with this booster made for RV's. That means it's extremely easy to remove and re-attach the antenna whenever you want, so you don't have to keep it on while traveling. This also allowed me to attach the antenna bracket to a portion of my ladder where it allows the antenna to be at the highest point possible, and then when I'm hitting the road it only takes a few seconds to take it down. Finally, I want to add that the cable should be plenty long enough for most RV's. My trailer is only 25', but I had more than enough cable length rolled up that it would have worked on a much longer trailer as well. Overall, it's tough to say if this booster is really worth it. It does improve the cell signal, but it's only a slight improvement. If you tend to go out into remote areas a lot and you just want it for a more reliable signal in case you need it, or for minor tasks or data usage, then it's perfect. If you want something to allow you to work, stream, or play games in areas that wouldn't normally have a good enough signal to do so, this isn't going to fix that.

OK, in all this is a great system. Installation was a cinch. Mount outdoor antenna with any of several supplied mounting brackets, drill a hole, run external cable, plug power in, plug external antenna lead in... Then plug in internal lead, connect internal antenna and bam, system should be good and it is. That said, it is VITALLY important that you place the internal antenna roughly table-top height AND in main part of RV where you are going to use it. The internal antenna has a relatively small RF throw area. If you are in visual range of that antenna, you are good to go but if not, you might have some challenges. We tested this at a private camp-site in Menooka Park at Wilson Lake in Kansas. Outside of the RV, data was spotty at best all over the campground. Inside the RV (without the weBoost) data was virtually non-existent. As soon as you power on the weBoost, and are in range of the internal antenna, data was excellent. both 4G and 5G and we had seamless streaming on multiple devices. End of the day, this is a very good unit BUT please install to recommended guidelines, specifically mounting internal antenna at table-top heights and mount it where it would be used most. I would have given a 5 star if the internal antenna had slightly more range and coverage, but end of day, very good system. I would certainly recommend to a friend.

We camp nearly every weekend in our 5th wheel and the state parks are always in bad cell phone reception areas. When you have 2 kids and need to stream Netflix on rainy days, this Weboost is your ticket to parental happiness. Pros: • Very straight forward install • Comes with all the needed parts • High quality parts Cons: • Limited to 110v outlets • Ladder mounting bracket will mar your ladder’s paint • 25’ Cable length is questionable for very very large rigs • Amp can get really warm First and foremost, this thing does what it’s intended to do. It boosts available cell signals. It doesn’t magically create cell signal so if you get zero service, this booster will not help. We were getting 2 bars at our favorite camping spot and this booster will get me the full 5 bars. But full 5 bars only if you are within a foot or 2 of the “indoor” antenna. That’s the caveat. You have to be very close to the inside antenna to have the best results. Luckily in my situation, I have the amp and indoor antenna in my living room of the camper where we would normally need the fastest data speeds. The indoor antenna is also on a 20-25ft cable so technically, you can move the antenna around to where you’re going to need the best service. We have our amp and antenna hooked up behind our main TV. I place my iphone near the indoor antenna and setup the phone as a mobile hotspot so that my TV can stream Netflix with very high quality. And you can easily move the indoor antenna to a table where you need to do some computer work with the included long cable. I did include a screen shot of my data speeds before and after the install. What’s interesting is that even though my phone was at 2 bars, the download speeds were the same if it was 2 or 5 bars. The upload speeds saw the biggest increase as it went from 4.39Mbps to 12.1Mpbs. In summary, we are very pleased with the weboost. It does what its designed to do but you just have to know the limitations. It does increase your data speeds to the point that I can stream Netflix or work on my laptop with no issues. If you intend to use this booster while driving, either have a power converter to run the amp’s required 110v outlet plug or run the generator while driving.

I've been camping on and off with my new RV for about 9 months now and I've been in several different campsites where I didn't have cell signal or wifi. So I figured what do I have to lose by trying the WeBoost and man what a good decision. I will say that installation of this unit wasn't easy, but if wasn't do to WeBoost, but because of my RV manufacturer. The actual installation of the WeBoost was straight forward and easy. So if you're pretty good as a DIY person you shouldn't have any reason to hire a professional. It came with plenty of cable and attaching hardware for a clean installation. Now as far as performance this unit performs well. I'm really glad that I got this cell signal booster. I've been using this unit for a little over a week now and I have experience great service everywhere I've been. I use a cellular hotspot for my streaming services and I've enjoyed the speed and no more buffering. I do recommend this item for anyone wanting to get cell service while out camping or even at home if you don't get great service.
