Verified Purchase:Yes
I purchased the 4G through Uber Signal. Reading the instructions, it show a surge protector for the outside antenna. I should have been told about it when I ordered. It is $69. I ordered it only to find out it need a lead coax to work. I called and was told to go on line to find one. I told them this was not acceptable. They finally agreed to send me one. This could all be avoided on the front side if you tell the customer they need these. The we boost does work and we were able to do away with our land line
I purchased 23 acres of land in Texas. I was very frustrated as I could not get any cell coverage at all, no bars at all. I did get 5 bars LTE about 6 miles away. I purchased this product, laid the outdoor antenna on the deck of the cabin, did not even unroll the cable to the indoor antenna, unrolled the cable to the outdoor antenna and immediately had 1 bar. I knew then it was working. I then purchased a small pipe and used it as an antenna mast for the outdoor antenna, with 20 feet of pipe for the antenna mast I get 3 bars LTE on my phone. I can make calls, use my AT&T Hot Spot within the cabin. REALLY NICE PRODUCT WORTH THE $$.
I can now use 4G/LTE where I had NO SERVICE! The only thing I would improve would be to have the ability to order the length of cable you need. The standard order came with significantly more cable than needed. So I had to order a smaller (2 ft) connector. But the service I receive from the unit is astounding.
Have had the connect 4g-x for about a week now and the amount of increased signal is great. Before we installed the booster our phones had one bar of 3G on the best days but usually stayed on 1x. Now my son even gets LTE in the basement and he couldn't be happier.
I have a cabin in the Adirondacks in NY. Cell service is -110 to -125. Weboost doesn't recommend this product for such bad service (nothing worse than -95 to cover their butt understandably). Weboost offers a 30 day money back guarantee if not satisfied though, which is very important if your considering to spend the money(this was the deciding factor in my purchase with these guys). I installed it and was surprised that I now have service (-85 to -95). Except when the clouds roll in low, then it gets sketchy, but you can't boost zero service. Overall, this product works. Only critique is that it does not cover the square footage inside as advertised. The 12' by 20' room the interior antenna is in is great, the service drops significantly in the adjacent 14' by 14' room (goes from 4 bars down to 1). It's a very pricey unit but if your on the edge of service this product will boost as advertised. A bit of constructive criticism to Weboost would be to offer different size wire for the hookup from the booster to the interior antenna. The 60' provided is way to much for the average customer in my opinion (I only used a two foot piece). I think It would also cut down on the db loss and you wouldn't have to deal with hiding all the extra wire. Offering lesser cable runs should increase your profit margin and would be a custom fit for each customer.
We travel in an RV and some of the parks are not near a tower. The weBoost makes the signal stronger. You won't see more bars but the signal is lost less often. Less dropped calls!
I live in a super insulated house in the sticks and had to walk 3 houses down to get 1-3 bars. I installed a Wilson Desk Top unit that gave me years of intermittent 1-3 bars inside replicating down the street reception confined to certain areas of the house. I installed the 4G-X directly to my old exterior antenna and wiring and got a steady 3 bars. Support directed me to OPENSIGNAL and I found a hot spot in a different direction, I installed the new antenna and pointed it there. I now get an incredible 5 bars on both floors with a never before 3-5 bars in the basement! All with LTE and 4G! A great unit worth every penny! Thank you weBoost.
