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 32x, 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.
excellent product purchased for four vehicles
Placed them in police cruiser, we now have cell signal in the majority of the town which prevents without losing calls.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

Tremendously enhanced our range boating
We boat in some very remote places around the Pacific Northwest, and need cellular access for work while away. The 4GX has allowed us to expand our range substantially. While it obviously needs SOME signal to boost (it can't boost nothing), we have had times of nearly no signal, turned on the booster, and been able to effectively use both voice and data. We've been at anchor for days in remote places, and working as if in the office. Note: We did upgrade the outdoor antenna to the marina antenna, and the indoor antenna to the room antenna rather than the little car antenna that is included, which made a HUGE difference. The only mild frustration I had was that the optional antennas had different connectors than the original ones, so I then had to order adapters, which delayed getting it into full use. But the WeBoost support was very responsive.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

Best part of my van build
I have my weboost on top of my Sprinter van and use it for traveling all over the US. I was a little skeptical at first and scared to spend so much money on a booster but let me tell you, it was worth every penny. I have been amazed at how well it works and I can get a signal in places where I'd normally have no service. I also love that Weboost contacted me right away to see if I had any questions about installing it and helped me determine where to put it on the roof. Awesome customer service!

Oil Field Sales Rep
I am a sales rep in South Texas and I am in my truck everyday. I used to miss and drop calls until I got my we boost for my truck. I have been in the oil field for seven years now and never had a better song booster in the we boost.Say goodbye to missed and dropped calls when you're out in the field.

Great product for low cell signal areas
We started using this product a couple years ago. Before using these styles of boosters, we had very little to no cell coverage in many spots along our property. The booster has fixed about 80% of the issues we had with no cell coverage. Keeping in mind you need to have your inside antenna installed in a common location where you will be keeping your cell phone(s) need within 2' of the inside antenna. Use a handsfree bluetooth device if you intend on doing lots of phone calls. If you are surfing the internet, tether your tablet or laptop, to the phone. This will prevent the phone from being moved out of range of the inside antenna. The only concern I have is how delicate the internal circuit board in inside the booster. You need to ensure you install the booster in an area where you will not be moving lots of material. With a little bit of force there is a chance you could damage the antenna ports on the booster. A tad pricey, but you get the bang for your buck from this device!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

Works great!
My weboost did improve my signal, but there were areas where it just did not work at all. In the weboost's defense I was between Mentone Texas and Orla Texas out in the middle of a bunch of lease roads.

Question: Will weboost 4GX work with Indian cellular companies like Airtel, BSNL, idea, Jio??? As I want to use this device in india
Answer: Our amplifiers are only able to work in the US and Canada on 4G and 3G. Mexico have been able to use 3G and Malaysia have the same frequencies so it can be used there but not in India.

Question: Is there anything that will connect the outside antenna to a vehicle that has an aluminum body. The magnet mount will not work.
Answer: We have adhesive pads that we can send out since magnets cannot mount to aluminum. They've been able to work just as good as regular mounting.

Question: Can this be powered by a USB outlet instead of a 12V port? I don't have a 12V port available. If so, what's the ideal output (amps)?
Answer: Thank you for your question! Unfortunately, this unit cannot be powered by USB since the voltage and amperage are not enough for the unit to be powered sufficiently for the booster to work. Must units need 6V of power like this one requires, USB slots typically only are able to pull 5V/.5-.9A which the unit needs 6V/2A, not nearly enough to power the unit correctly. We recommend using the power supplies offered in the kits because they have been tested and approved by our engineering department. Going outside these recommendations could result in damage to the product. If there's any other questions that need to be addressed, please give us a call at 866-294-1660 or contact our online support at: [email protected] Thank you!

Asked by Dennis the Realtor a year ago
Question: Instructions says that the cell phone needs to be 36" from the inside antenna. Can this be more than 36"?
Answer: Thank you for your question! It could, but not recommended since the cellular signal will become weaker the farther the phone is away from the antenna. In all reality, if you're going to be in weak areas, the phone sometimes has to be inches away from the inside antenna in order for the phone to pick up the signal since it's so weak. I would typically place the antenna where the phone can sit and still be used effectively. If there's any other questions that need to be addressed, please give us a call at 866-294-1660 or contact our online support at: [email protected] Thank you!

Asked by Mike a year ago
Question: I drive an emergency vehicle. I am purchasing the 4G-X which seems to be the recommended kit. I need a permanent mount antenna. I use Verizon services. What antenna do you suggest. I cannot have cable exposed on the roof of the vehicle.
Answer: Thank you for your question! That's going to be a tricky situation since all of our boosters have a cord that attaches to the outside antenna. We do have an NMO mount antenna, but that requires a hole to be drilled into the vehicle, it's also a 3G antenna only so a 4G booster will not work with the NMO antenna. There may be a way to have the antenna be mounted in a way where the cord isn't exposed as much, like near a door under weatherstripping and not next to a window. Check out this video to hide mobile booster cable: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5McQ8MyaIIk&t=4s This may help in getting a better idea of how it should be installed. You may get away with the antenna being on the edge to have less cable exposed. That's really all the info that I can give you right now, I hope this helped in some way!

Asked by Jennifer a year ago
Question: I am trying to boost a signal from Telcel in Mexico for use in an Airstream trailer. These are Telcel's specs as of 12/2017: https://www.frequencycheck.com/carriers/telcel-mexico Will any Weboost product work for this application? If so, do you have any advice for this particular installation? Thanks!
Answer: Thank you for your question! Typically, the Drive 4G-X RV is going to be the best bet for you in your situations where there's going to be weaker areas where making a call would be tough. Keep in mind for the booster to work there has to be signal available for the outside antenna to pick up and amplify. According to the frequencies and bands used, it looks like the booster should be able to amplify those signals. I would contact our customer support if you would like to find out more information about our boosters, or check out our website at Weboost.com. If there's any other questions that need to be addressed, please give us a call at 866-294-1660 or contact our online support at: [email protected] Thank you!
