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 booster reaches out to the cell tower to access voice and data signals.
Boosts
Signal
The booster receives the outside signal, amplifies it up to 32x, and sends it to the inside antenna.
Expands
Signal
The inside antenna broadcasts the boosted signal to devices inside the vehicle.

Can you hear me now?
I purchased the OTR kit and it comes with everything you need. The antenna was overly tall so I removed the shaft extension for a lower profile mount. I have had it installed in my '95 Kenworth W900 for several months and it has performed well. In weak service areas it keeps the calls connected. There are still some remote areas in the country where I drop or can't call out.

Warning to sprint users
This product is easy to install and appears well built . BUT Sprint uses frequencies that are too close to emergency frequencies and the LTE cannot be boosted . It does somewhat boost the talk and text on sprint . It boosted my Verizon tablet pretty good . Just be warned . I needed internet boosted in my semi , and for sprint users , it won't do that .
It works!
Seriously. I bought one of these to be able to work on the road from my camper. Web meetings where I need to host and present is part of my job. This baby takes little to no service and give you the "boost". In dead spots once I turned it on- "ding, ding, ding" messages start coming through. Where I would have two bars the weboost jumped me to full bars. Get one.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

It's a joke.
The signal does not amplify. Nothing strengthens. My second driver, on the second truck, also bought himself the same. Now he and I, sorry for the lost money. Just lost almost $1000 for two, for this beautiful deception. Who then asked, no one does not work. They do not accept it back. Ask before buying, not from sellers, but from those who have already tried it.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

Don't be Stranded W/O one.
I work in the oil patch, which can take me to some pretty remote places. The weboost helps improve my Cellular and Data signal quite alot. I was Amaized. I am considering purchasing these units for all of my personal vehicles. Think of it, No more dropped calls, Data interruption while trying to send reports in from the field, or Emergency situations, which always seem to take place in the worst cell phone receptive areas.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

Question: How far apart do the interior and exterior antennas have to be to prevent oscillation? My old sleek is 3-4 ft from each other and can see each other through the sunroof and was wondering if the 4gx would be to powerful to have the interior/exterior antennas in the same position
Answer: Thank you for your question! As long as the lights are green and you're getting the gain increase that you want then it should be okay. If you're getting red lights then they do have to be separated.

Question: On the antenna...I know it has extensions...does it matter how low or short the antenna is with the extensions...does it get the same gain whether it uses no extensions or all is what I'm asking
Answer: Thank you for your question! Same gain throughout, even with extensions since the coax cable is the same length with extensions or without.

Asked by Nick 2 months ago
Question: What does it mean when the 4G-X has a red light on instead of a green
Answer: Thank you for your question! Typically this means that the antennas are too close and need to be separated further for optimal performance. After separation the unit needs to be turned off and on again to receive it's new reading. If the lights are green and you see improvement, it's working, however of it's still red, more separation is required. If you have no more coax length and you're still getting red lights, there could be another issue and it would be best to contact customer support for further instructions.

Question: Looking for high-gain system for travel in RV/Van to a 'cabin' in woods. Then take system out of vehicle for use at Cabin with additional mounted antenna. Which would you recommend??
Answer: Thank you for your question! I would think a Drive 4G-X RV would be best since it can be removed relatively easy but the coverage will not be able to cover your cabin since it's a mobile amplifier. There's not one amplifier that would be easy to take down and use inside a home since we have separate amplifiers for home and and ones for vehicles. Both boosters are not synonymous and usually require two purchases for the best benefit.

Asked by kris022 3 months ago
Question: I'm going to be installing a Drive 4G-X OTR when it gets here within the next few days. I wanted to find out if the cable from the antenna going into the vehicle will have any negative affect if it's close or next to power cables from the car battery. I have power cables coming from the front to the back of the vehicle to power on accessories I have in the trunk. Thanks
Answer: Thank you for your question! It can, just keep the coax cable away from any other cables to reduce signal noise because the insulation inside the coax is very thin because it's a thin coax cable that's used.

Asked by Dewey 4 months ago
Question: I would like to use this 4G-X OTR booster on our 36 foot fifth wheel camper. Can I add the 20' cable #955823 between antenna and booster for about 35' of cable. Is there a better inside antenna to use with this system or am I better off tying the 4G-X RV kit ?
Answer: Thank you for your question! I would definitely try the 4G-X RV since the outside cable is RG6 which is much easier to add on to than the Rg56 since there's a lot more loss because it's a thinner cable. Please let us know if there's anything else we can assist with by calling our customer support at 866-294-1660 or our online support at [email protected] Thank you!

Question: Cannot get cable thru other masts. What are we doing wrong
Answer: Thank you for your question! If you have the adapter on you have to take that off before threading the coax through. There should also be a piece that should allow the coax to go through one end off to the side.

Question: Would this work well on an rv that I have an extendible tower mounted to my rear ladder. I can extend to 20 feet. I currently have a weboost with directional yagi but not that impressed with it.
Answer: Thank you for your question! If the directional doesn't give performance, nothing is really going to top that if you have that installed correctly. The OTR will most likely perform worse than the yagi antenna. There is another antenna that is omni that may help and be easier to setup but it isn't as high of a gain.

Asked by Guest 5 months ago
Question: Is it true that Sprint LTE cannot be boosted? This question is in reference to the 'Most Liked Negative Review' found on this page right now. Thank you.
Answer: Thank you for your question! Sprint LTE has trouble since the frequencies that are used for 4G, 2 of which are outside FCC regulations to amplify, therefore we cannot amplify those frequencies besides one which is on the 1900 MHZ. We don't recommend using the amplifier for Sprint just for that alone, but if you only want to use it for 3G then that's fine since 3G is used by the same frequencies on all carriers.
