How It Works
Signal boosters increase cell signal by collecting signals with a powerful antenna, delivering those signals to the booster, amplifying the cell signals so your devices receive them, and delivering your device's boosted signals back to the cell tower.
Receives
Signal
The outside antenna reaches out to the cell tower to access voice and data signals.
Transmits
Signal
The booster receives the outside signal from the outside antenna.
Boosts
Signal
The booster amplifies the outside signal up to and sends it to the inside antenna.
Expands
Signal
The inside antenna broadcasts the boosted signal inside the vehicle.

Absolutely epic!
This thing is amazing. I live in a Sportsmobile 4x4 converted van and work remotely. Without the weBoost 4G-X I was finding myself tied down to urban areas during the "work week" and really being frustrated that my off grid capabilities were being impacted by Verizon's network coverage. I was up in Banff National Park and had 1 bar of LTE from my campsite, it was super unreliable and I ended up spending most of my time parked in my van in town. I had to fly home to CA for a quick wedding and while in CA I purchased the 4G-X. I flew back with the device set it up on the van in about 10-minutes (super simple). To my amazement, I went from 1 bar LTE up to 4 bar LTE! I was able to spend a full week in a back country campsite and had a super productive work week because of this device. I cannot recommend it enough to anyone that needs to stay connected and can't afford satellite internet data plans. I have even engineered a way to make this thing portable! Also, the device is super rugged. The antenna is small and super durable. We are always driving 4x4 trails in all sorts of weather and the antenna can take some serious abuse. It still looks and functions as if it was brand new. Awesome product, I highly recommend.

It works...
Use this in my semi. Im usually right outside of a good service area, i can drive 5 to 10 minutes and be back in an lte area. When I first started I wasnt seeing a great improvement so i called customer service. I was told it only boosts 3g signal and I would have to turn the lte off. Downloaded the rf monitor app and as far as i can see it only boosts it from about -97 to -82 or so. It does work though. I can connect to facebook, the internet is slow but usually works. Things like youtube or videos on facebook are hit and miss. It was easy to install, took me about 20 minutes. Overall i have recommended it to friends because it is an improvement but i also encouraged them to shop around and see if they can find a better deal on a different booster similar to this one. Given the chance i wouldnt spend another $546.74 on it.

Wish we got one sooner!
We noticed we do not get an increase in signal bars, but emails and web pages load much faster, and so far have not had someone say they could barely hear me (which happened right before we installed the WeBoost - my version of product testing).
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

Good replacement for my 3G booster
I had an older Wilson 3G booster that served me very well for years, but my new phone would not allow me to shut off the 4G and use only 3G, so I no longer had service in the fringe areas. This booster gave me better coverage than I ever had with my previous booster. I've only been using it a week, but so far, I couldn't be happier with my purchase.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

NEVER!!!!!!! Extreamly disapointed
I live full time on the road in an RV and rely on signal booster due to the remote places I go. This is my second Weboost I have purchased from this company only to have it fail soon after warranty. The reliability of this product is highly in question and the company will NOT stand behind their product. I will not make the same mistake again.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

Impressive for my ATT service in New England
Short and sweet, this is one of the best investments I have ever made considering I travel all over New England for work and NEED my phone. I pretty much never give 5 star reviews for anything but this gets it because of my coverage is so great now. This has already paid for itself 10 times over because I can be that much more effective communicating with my clients. - was a bit of a pain to install and make it look nice - I go through the car wash all the time so I have to keep removing the magnet mount antenna and then remount after the wash. Not a huge deal but a pain and PAINFUL if you forget it's there or someone else wants to be nice and wash your car not knowing they need to remove it - haven't bought it yet but I'm looking at installing a permanent antenna from Wilson - plenty of length to the antenna wires, got where I needed in my Jeep Cherokee with no problems - hiding the wires behind trim takes some time but well worth it for a quality install - stupid me installed the inside antenna right next to my head, recommend installing it on the passenger side where a person is less likely to be - just for reference, for approximately 45 minutes from my house to the city I used to have intermittent service and could not hold a call for more than a minute. Now I can be on a call the whole time with 1 bad spot where I have to repeat myself but don't lose the call - I really can't say enough good things about this. If you're in New England, I know you'll be impressed with the improvement of your cell service. It actually is a bit of a pain driving my wife's car now without the booster because I realize just how much extra coverage I get when I drive my car with the booster.

I would buy this product again.
This booster does allow me to make calls at my home when it's impossible to make one without it. It also gives me more coverage to make calls in my home area where the signal is very weak. I've tried other boosters but this brand seems to be the best of the best. No complaints.

Bought a second one and wouldn't be without it now
We absolute love that this product works. It is almost a necessity these days to have good cellular reception where ever you are and we live way out in country with barely any reception. This booster has made that almost completely resolved. Still some dead spots with no signal to boost but otherwise works great. Only downside is installing. While they work without actually fully installing, fixing the wires and mounting the device takes a little time which is why it hasn't yet been done on either of the vehicles so we have wires hanging around every where. Would gladly pay someone to take care of it.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

Asked by Tony 2 months ago
Question: How do i connect to device
Answer: Hello! The booster will automatically amplify the available cellular signal and simultaneously provide it to the available phones. If you are not seeing an increase, I suggest checking for a red light when the booster is first powered on. If you get a red light, this means that the antennas are interfering with each other causing the booster to lower its gain. In this case, you will just need to separate the antennas farther apart. If you are still not seeing much of a gain, even when placing the phone right next to the internal antenna, then I suggest reaching out to our customer support team at 866-294-1660 or emailing our online support at [email protected] for further troubleshooting. Thank you!

Question: Will it work if your outside of the vehicle like 3 feet away from it.
Answer: This system is for indoor use only and is regulated to cover up to 5 ft. However, it is important to keep in mind that the booster's performance is highly dependent on the outside signal strength. The weaker the outside signal is, the smaller the coverage. If you have any other questions that need to be addressed, please feel free to reach back to us at 866-294-1660 or email our online support at [email protected] Thank you and have a great day!

Question: I had to attach my outside antenna with the sticker and I do not think I placed it far enough back. How do I move it without wrecking the sticker?
Answer: Thank you for your question! The sticker will most likely not have the same adherence even if carefully removed. I suggest reaching out to our customer support team at 866-294-1660 or emailing our online support at [email protected] where they would be happy to provide you with a new adhesive as a courtesy. Thank you!

Asked by Mjstacoma 4 months ago
Question: How many miles away from the nearest signal can it boost or provide signal
Answer: Good question! The distance from towers does not really matter when trying to boost a signal. The antenna will not actually reach out and grab a signal from a tower, but work with what is surrounding it. The distance that a signal travels from a tower depends on the carrier and its surrounding. Buildings and trees act as barriers and affect the way a signal can travel. So as long as there is a signal in the area that the antenna is placed, it will be able to bring it in and amplify it. To get a better idea on how strong the signal at the external antenna is, we recommend taking some dB readings right next to it. If you have any other questions in regards to how the signal is amplified, please feel free to reach out to our customer support team at 866-294-1660 or email our online support at [email protected] Thank you and have a great day!

Question: Are there any weboost models that offer a USB port in the power supply?
Answer: Thank you for your question! Both the Drive Reach and the Drive Sleek offer a USB connection port in the power supply for you to charge your cellular device while using the booster. The vehicle boosters themselves are powered by a DC power supply, hardwired power supply, or an AC power supply depending on the model. If you have any other questions that need to be addressed, please feel free to reach back to us at 866-294-1660 or email our online support at [email protected] Thank you and have a great day!

Question: Referring to the antenna that sits inside the RV; should that receiving antenna have a red or green LED lite on the top? I'm seeing what appears to be a little dot on the top of that antenna that isn't lite. Thanks
Answer: Thank you for your question! The internal antenna does not have a light on it. The only component that has a light on it is the booster itself.

Asked by Andy 5 months ago
Question: Can I order a separate wireless antenna like the RV model to use with my Drive 4G-X? The stick on wired antenna installed by Airstream dealer is located in a difficult place to get close enough to.
Answer: Thank you for your question! Unfortunately, we do not have a wireless antenna option for any of our boosters. All of the components need to be connected to the booster via a coax cable in order to properly transmit the signals. I recommend reaching out to our support team at 866-294-1660 or our online team at [email protected] so that they can assist you with a better solution. Depending on what your setup is like, you may be able to just relocate the internal antenna to an area where it is more accessible and more in line of sight to your phone(s). We'll look forward to hearing from you! Thank you!
