It took a mediocre 3G signal to 2 bars of LTE. We were able to surf the Internet and stream video on our phones. When I used the phone as a hotspot it didn’t seem to work very well though. That may be the phone though, it was an Apple 8 plus.

We did a preliminary set up for the WeBoost for our motor home in our driveway. We were amazed at the increase in cell phone reception. We live in the country & our reception is normally poor. However, Internet reception was not increased very much. Our motor home is 39 feet. We ordered a longer cable for installation that has not arrived yet.

I bought this to get cell coverage at a remote camping spot. Put it on a 25 foot pole above the travel trailer and was able to get 4 bars of Verizon cell service and 4G on my cell phone. No one else in the area was able to get any cell service at all.
Only drawback was that I had to put my cell phone right next to the desktop antenna. But at another, less remote location, I could have my phone 3 to 4 feet from the desktop antenna. We did not permanently install the booster, but move it inside and outside the trailer so we can use our phones in lots of areas. I would highly recommend this product.

Product amplified the signal to show 4 or 5 bars, but could not make a call or pull data even if I held the interior antenna to my phone. Might work for you but didn't for me.

Brand response from weBoost Customer Support

Thank you for your review! We appreciate you looking into our solutions and trusting our units to bring signal into your RV. I am sorry that the unit wasn't able to perform it's role in providing that service. Sometimes with our units there are unseen factors that may play in affecting how the amplifier will work. In your situation, it sounds like there was excess signal "noise" outside your RV. That means when the amplifier picks the noise up from outside, your phone can confuse that for actual signal and makes the signal worse or unusable. Unfortunately, there's no way to change the signal outside but we could replace parts and the unit itself, make changes to antenna placement and other testing to be sure that you can receive signal the best way possible. We would love to give you some help on how to assist you in all of these things.Please give us a call at 866-294-1660 or contact our online support at: [email protected] Thank you once again and we hope to hear from you soon.

I bought to use on the road when we travel in RV often to campsites in the middle of no where. We also live in rural Virginia so it helps at the house. I do get more bars with the unit. Wish it was even more helpful considering the cost.

I could have purchased this item at many different places but because of Best Buys return policy this was a no brainer and I knew I would be going on a 24 day RV trip and test the product thoroughly especially at a place I knew there would be no service and it worked like I could not believe.

If signal is weak 1x-3g it will get you LTE, dont expect miracles though. Interference can also happen.

We are not seeing any difference, we even purchased the R11 cable that was suggested by weboost support. We have seen great reviews so we are still looking for solutions to get results.
