Well I do a lot of traveling and Overland camping and so far it does search for tower reception when there is none and I get at least 1 to 2 bars depending on my location. Overall the wife likes it and thats what counts happy wife happy life.

Well designed, simple to install, works as advertised

Purchased this with the OTR-RV antenna kit for our Travato. Review tests indicated that even though this antenna is not optimal for the Reach, it's better than the mini-mag antenna included for car use, which would not have worked because the cable is too short for RV use. The OTR-RV antenna is an excellent match to Promaster/Sprinter conversion vans. No oscillations detected anywhere within van. The central location of the amp module and the 8' interior antenna cable length allows effective positioning most anywhere in the van...and you do need to be within about 2' for positive effect. About a bar to 2 bars enhancement in deep fringe areas. Turned several of our favorite campsites into useable reception zones. Major gripe is the 12V power adaptor. It fits extremely loosely in standard cigarette lighter sockets and makes intermittent electrical contact unless physically held down to one side. The trouble appears to be spring contacts on the adaptor sides are not springy enough and don't protrude far enough to guarantee robust contact. The adaptor also powers up when coach 12V is powered up, so it can be on and you won't know it. Need a more positive power switching that only comes on when you physically push the switch.

Works as expected

Works as expected. I leave it off until I get somewhere with poor coverage, switch it on, and my phone shows full bars. Phone calls and internet access quality improves accordingly. "Range extender" seems like a poor description, but certainly "signal booster". My hatchback is fairly short by car standards, and trying to run the cable the recommended way get me 1m (3ft) short of the passenger seat. Had to cable it through the door in a not-elegant way. The power and internal antennae cables are probably longer than they need to be, by comparison.

My job requires me to be in locations where cell service is very weak, if not non existent. Since I have installed this signal booster, I now have service. Love it!

I go off road a lot and routinely lose signal. Total loss. I registered on Verizon, all the info on the back of the unit. Took 3 minutes and done. Plugged it in per instructions. 2 min. Signal before use about 98 dB. Turned on and it goes to 54 dB. Works great. Proximity to the internal antenna is important. About 12 inches away, I lose about 10 dB. It's great. Thanks Weboost.

I am very pleased

I bought the Drive Sleek 470135 rather than the more powerful RV models because my Travel Trailer is tiny and I could not risk the potential for oscillation due to proximity of the external antenna. Despite the lower power, it has made a significant difference. In a place I often camp, my friend has a weak signal, but with the WeBoost, it is strong with excellent voice and data throughput. I have a different carrier, and I have absolutely zero service without the WeBoost. Zero bars, zero connection, zero registration even. I may as well be on the moon with a dead battery. With the WeBoost however, I am able to identify and register with my carrier, and while I cannot maintain a full-duplex phone conversation, nor can I manage an SSL data connection, I can reliably send and receive SMS texts from this location despite the near zero signal. This is truly great, because I am available to people who may need to reach me; if I get a text needing my attention, I can simply call with my friend's phone, or if by myself, climb up the hill to find a signal. All in all, I am very pleased! The only improvement I'd like to see would be if they offered an option for a shorter antenna cable. A 3 foot cable rather than the 6 foot, might give me a few extra decibels in such a weak signal area. I would totally recommend this product based on my usage so far.

Works perfectly to boost connection to the AT&T Cloud.

Bought this product to assist with connecting new vehicles at a dealership with the applications on the customers smart phones. Boost sign al perfectly for a seamless connection. Helps us save them 30 to 40 minutes now. Great device. I recommend it. Other options ran in the 5-30 thousand dollar range.
