“We live in Vermont and have to go up the road (around 300ft from the house) to be able to make phone calls and depending on the weather, sometimes a little further. Would the booster work for us and could it be run off a generator?”

Yes,that is the same situation Y I bought it. I am in VERY RURAL MS, and cell towers are few and far between in the poorest state in the country! And.it uses little power so, yes, a generator has no prob ! I went to electronics school; I know about such things!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.We had a similar situation in Colorado and it works for us. We ran off a Honda 5500 watt generator or with some 24 bolt batteries and an inverter. You just won’t know until you try it though (because you may not have enough signal to boost)
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The weBoost Home Room doesn’t create cell signal. It picks up the outside cell signal (no matter how weak) and amplifies it inside your home for better talk, text, and data. The connectivity bars on your phone are not a very good source of determining your signal strength. We recommend checking the actual signal strength outside your home to confirm you have greater than -110 dBm for 3G or -120 dBm for 4G LTE. You can visit the weBoost blog for detailed instructions on how to find your cellular signal strength. https://www.weboost.com/blog/how-to-access-iphone-field-test-mode
