Found this old thread

So for 2020 what are people using for cell booster.

We have a 6 year old Wilson.

But I hear better ones are out.


post# 13 should answer your question. If your old booster works with the frequencies of your provider, you should be ok.

Ray, I think that one might boost your 3G signal but if you want the latest 4G and newer....they are on a different freqency.

Thanks for information and messages.

I will call today on this one.Also look at the better antenna. Being it is good for 5G. It should come with a foil hat while using for safety.

Anyone try out the cheap Chinese boosters? They have all kinds and all kinds of frequencies.

go read post #13.
pick your carrier to see what frequencies they operate on.
It looks like your BangGood only boosts GSM 900.

Read my post, they have all frequencies available on BangGood. The example I showed was just one of many.

This past weekend out in the bush we were in a situation were cell signal would have been helpful. Don't jump on me as I did not read every post yet but is there a monthy charge involved with cell boosters or do you just buy them set them up and go? We would be looking to install it in our trailer, how do they work? are they a easy install?

As mentioned above no charge.
Mine is not permanently mounted.

I run the cable for the outside antenna out the window. Place antenna on the roof.
Plug into 12 volt and all set.

Picked up the new weboost cell booster yesterday and the antenna to put on toyhauler. The antenna is a booster also.

Or can just have the antenna on the ground. We see next week how it works.
