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.
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

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

Asked by Steve 3 months ago
Question: Good day. I have the WeBoost Drive 4G-X which I purchased as a kit. It came with the small desk top internal antenna. Is there an internal antenna (possibly the panel style) that will provide greater range in my long RV? I have the external omnidirectional antenna mounted 25ft in the air at one end so interference would not likely be an issue I would think. Thank you for an already great product.
Answer: You're welcome! There is a panel antenna that you could use but it may require some extra cables and connector to allow it to work properly.
