We have only used our WeBoost on one trip but it seems to work great. We are looking forward to our next trip to the state parks in Florida to see if our service is better.

Installed the weBoost Drive 4G-X RV in our motorhome. I was tired of getting to a location only to find I had little or no service available in the campsite. This product improves our cell phone and data capabilities to make them usable again. Having a job that requires constant internet connection, this cell phone booster gave me the peace of mind to work on the road. It was easy to install and has worked great for our needs.

I am reviewing the weBoost Drive 4G-X RV. I purchased and installed this booster just prior to a trip into the Sierra Nevada of California. We were planning on staying at several campgrounds previously visited that had limited or no cell service. I installed the exterior antenna on a closet dowel attached to the rear ladder on my trailer. By loosing two hose clamps I am able to raise the antenna about two feet above the roof line. Lowered it sits at roof level, protected from trees and such. At our first stopover I checked my phone signal and had a no service message. I powered up my booster and I was greeted with 3 bars of service and 4G data. My wife and I were impressed. The signal would vary between 3G and 4G and 3 or 4 bars of service during our 6 day stay. Without boosting sometimes we had 1-2 bars and 1X data, or no service. We did notice that if both of us were using data, it would slow down and not work so well. So sometimes we would just take turns in order to stream data seamlessly. On Monday night I was able to watch NFL football, with an occasional buffering delay. Impressive! Our next stop was Convict Lake south of Mammoth Lakes, CA. Here we had similiar results, although we had a large tree trunk blocking the line of sight to where we thought our signal was coming from. This location typically had 1-2 bars and 1X or 3G without boosting. Our next location at Rock Creek Lake had no signal with or with out booster, but we had expected this due to the remote location that required a 6-7 mile drive down the canyon in order to get a signal (Verizon). In summary I believe my RV booster performed as advertised. Pricey, but that is another subject. Reasonable expectations based on your location of usage should be considered. Also, I believe a proper installation is necessary and the bad reviews based on a poor installation by someone should not determine your purchase. My IOS 11 software would not do signal strength.

We boondock in a Class A Motorhome about 90 % of the time and it is so nice to be able to increase that iffy cell signal in some of the places we camp. We have the outside antenna on an extendable pole that snaps into command strips attached to the side of the coach and run the cable through the side window to the booster. We didn't want to drill a hole in the coach for the cable so I called the company and told them my issue and they sent the flat cable to us to solve the problem. Takes about 5 minutes to set up. These people know how to serve the customer.

Purchased the unit for RVs and was excited to use it. I am a full time RVer and can honesty say I have never experienced any improvement of any kind in the western half of the US. This winter while I stay put for a few months it will be removed and thrown away!

Not much for comments, however this cell booster, I have the Drive 4GX-RV does just that. Installed in August and now it's September 27th,2018 with 3500 miles clicked off from Fairbanks, AK to Greeley,Colorado. Sure there's a lot of obvious no service stretches but having much more connectivity than any of the past 3 years without the Weboost. Proving itself most of the time but threre are those times that really make me go wow. For instance a city park outside the middle of somewhere in Saskatchewan. Camphost greets us and we yap a bit, yea you don't get any cell service here, oh well. Settled into our campsite, dinner relax what have you and amazingly enough, service! Not great by any means but texts and mail slowly came through. There it is. Was I skeptical? Yes, but not anymore.
