- Did the job for my iPhone
The installation was simple. Just ran the wire up into the attic, screwed the antenna to a rafter, and hooked up the box down in the basement.
It works as advertised. I had no signal in the basement prior, then 3 or 4 bars at all times after installing the extender.
Definitely worth the price and effort if you have frustrating signal issues. - Really, really picky about placement
Like many other users, we found that the unit was REALLY picky about the placement of BOTH the antenna and the repeater. We spent about three hours moving things around, with the indicators giving every possible status: not enough signal from tower, TOO MUCH signal from tower, antenna too close to receiver. HOWEVER, once we found positioning that the unit seemed to like, the performance boost was FANTASTIC! We actually ended up putting the antenna up in the drop-ceiling and the repeater on the floor on the other side of a cinder block wall. Go figure. There are four of us "On-Call" supporting a manufacturing plant so it's critical that we have good service. We had horrible coverage in our office in the middle of the plant, surrounded by four cinder block walls and a steel girder ceiling, but after getting the zBoost up and running I now have FIVE bars at my desk where I had one or even NONE before. Bottom line: if you're patient and creative enough to find locations that the equipment's happy with, you WILL get improved coverage. - Great Product, Great Company
Great product, Great Company
I live in the boonies. Only have weak (1 bar) cell signal standing on peak of house roof.
Installed this unit Oct. 2009, with roof antenna attached to 10 foot mast.
I now use cell phone indoors within 20 foot radius of inside antenna. Have not had any dropped calls.
I did have a premature AC power adapter failure. Emailed company and they immediately Fed Ex shipped a replacement. Absolutely no hassle.
When I read reviews that criticize this product, I must assume they didn't understand how to install it correctly.
- excellent booster.
this is an excellent booster, works very well way outside of city limits (over 25 miles to any nearby city) - No More Dropped Calls- or almost none
We installed this booster in our home and have not dropped more than one or two calls since. Before the installation, we would have to stand by a window or ask the caller to call back on our land line. Now we are almost to the point of dropping the land line. The booster also enabled us to use a wireless internet card and say so long to dialup.

- Nice Idea. Failed in Implementation
Product works as described. However, what the buyer is not told is that you are required to have a huge antenna and run upwards of 20 feet of tv cable to get this thing to work. The antenna and the base unit cannot be close together therefore to get this product working must run cable through your house. I guess if you don't mind that then this is a good product. If you want cable running through your house then stay away. Amazon really needs to inform its customers of this fact. - THANK GOODNESS FOR ZBOOST
YOUR PRODUCT WORKS GREAT, I HAVE OPNE AT HOME AND AT TWO OF MY OFFICES.
RP - Good Review
I had no service or 1 bar in my home. I installed this item and now have service all over the house. My suggestion to you is read the directions. If it has to much signal it will shut down so it does not damage the equipment. 2 or 3 bars on your cell phone is plenty for the equipment to give you full service in the house. It is a great buy and only took me about 2 hourt to install. - very pleased customer
live in a small country town with a cell phone tower to the east and west, but neither are accesible b/c of 2 huge hills to the east and west of my house b/tween me and the towers.. could not get any signal to make or recieve calls inside my home, and only once in a while could send a text message, only if by a window.. so i ordered the zboost cell phone signal booster,
couldn't b/l how easy it was to set this thing up..put the antenna on the peak of the roof, drilled a hole and run the wire into the house, plugged it into the base and the base into the wall outlet and that was it!
went from no service to 2 to 4 bars of signal..can talk anywhere in the house...got rid of my land line phone, and only use my cell phones now.. saving me $50.00 a month! one of my buddies that live down the road a couple miles from me had the same problem, he ordered one and tried it with the antenna inside the house.. didn't work so great! told him to mount it to the eave of his house @ the highest point, thats what he did and it works great!
if ya wanna take the time and energy to mount the antenna where it should be mounted it probably will work great for you! i know everyones situation and location are different and nothing you can do may help! other than moving! but i think this rigging will help alot of people achieve signal..
this recommendation was based solely on mine and my friends experience with the product.. good luck to all that purchase!

p.s. i got the 800 MHz it's what works with my phones through u.s. cellular! - A bit iffy, but does make an improvement
I got this device because I have little to no service at the beach home. The problem I have with this device is that they say outside installation is best but DON'T tell you at the time of purchase that you should purchase an OPTIONAL outdoor kit. If it is recommeded that you put it outdoors, don't you think that they would include it or tell you at time of purchase that this kit is needed? The other problem is again associated with outdoor installation. They give you ab. 30 feet of coaxial cable which is great. The problem is that BOTH ends are finished with the crimped attachment hardware....try getting THAT through the existing cable hole to the outside. So, another trip to the hardware store 17 miles one way to get a crimping tool and masonry bits and screws to PROPERLY attach the mounting hardware for the signal atenna on the OUTSIDE brick. However, once the installation is done... several hours, miles and dollars later... I can get 3-4 bars when I used to only get 1-2 bars at best! I guess that beats having to stand at the end of the driveway in a thunderstorm to make calls to the office!

- It's Fussy
Installing the ZBoost increased the number of bars from "0" inside the main room in our house to 3 or 4. However, I encountered problems connecting with the service which I eventually learned came from standing too close to the base unit with the phone (when I noticed a red light flashing). I also encountered "clipped" words and occasional "network busy" issues that I did not get in good service areas away from the house with the same phone. I decided the system was disappointing, and dismantled the installation. It may work better in another location or with a different service provider. - Better than I expected
Before installing this device, I went on the roof of my single story home to check the quality of cell signal. What I found was 3 - 4 bars if the phone was placed about 5 feet above the roof line. Our phones were useless inside the house, we only got signal if the phone was at a window and even that was sporatic. I installed the booster recieve antenna on a 10 foot mast, this put the antenna 6 foot above the roof. Ran the cable inside and mounted the unit on the wall about 5 ft off the floor. When we powered it on I was very surprised to find we had 3 - 4 bars. We went to all rooms of the house and found our Sprint cell phones now work in EVERY room of our 2,000 sq ft house, they may not have lots of bars, but we can use them and not drop calls. What a great investment! - Wireless Extender zBoost YX500 for Cell Phones
My problem is that I don't have good cell phone signal in my new home. We are thinking it is the foil lining of the insulation in our attic. Verizon says that there is a tower within a two mile radius of our home so it can't be the tower's signal. We bought this product to enable us to have more signal inside our home. I am happy to say that it does give us more signal. However, I was hoping for better signal; but I guess half the signal is better than none. I do recommend this product, but just be aware that it may not give you 100% signal. I would also recommend installing the antenna outside on your roof; the higher the better. - Does not work.
I received this product and installed as directed. It does not work at all. I get a
green power light but that is all. I called wi-ex tech support and they were less
than helpful. One tech wanted me to buy the dual frequency. I don't know why if the
single frequency does not work. I checked with Verizon before ordering and verified
I am running on 1900mhz. Wi-Ex also verified the same. I need a signal booster but
I want to look for something other than ZBoost. The manual plainly states Wi-Ex
guarantees the product but tech support said I had to deal with the retailer. This
has not been a pleasant experience. - Should have listened
Other reviews indicated problems with performance. I wish I had listened. While the unit was easy to install and start-up, it did not increase the usefullness of our phones in our small house.

- Didn't do anything.
The cell phone service in my place isn't too bad. It's about what you'd expect - you look at your cell phone and see that you have a full signal, but as soon as you place a call, or go online, it drops to 1 or 2 bars.
I was hoping this thing could fix that - or at least give me a stronger signal.
I set it up as best I could - I live in a condo - but saw no difference in cell phone signal strength before and after plugging this thing in. As I am in a condo, I could only put the receiver up against a window, not outside on a pole or something.
I saw the video, read the instructions, but still received no increased signal strength or call clarity by using this product.
One odd thing - the receiver says to point a certain side of it towards the cell phone tower. I want you to look around your area right now - do you see a cell phone tower? Any idea where one might be? Yah, me neither.
I am going to give this to someone else who has much worse cell phone reception in their home than myself, and if they have better luck, I will update this review.
But for now - PASS. - Quality Speaks For Itself
No matter whose providing our cell phone service, dead zones still seem to be an issue. The overpriced and underachieving booster that my service provider billed us for was absolutely worthless. In short, after four days use I boxed it up and sent it back for an account credit. When the opportunity came along to take the Wilson Electronics 801247 Cell Phone Signal Booster for a test drive I had some serious doubts.
Opening the box, the first thing I noticed was the hard plastic body casing for both the exterior antenna and the amplifier. Speaking from personal experience I know that the exterior antenna unit will have a short lifespan against the elements unless it is weather proofed. Corrosion will definitely raise its ugly head on the connectors. Vulcanizing tape, electrical tape and Scotch coat is a must if this product is installed outdoors. My other gripe is the design of the cradle. Its a given that the cradle will accumulate standing water which could result in damage to the unit.
That said, I did a quick inventory of hardware that included the DT amplifier, amplifier antenna, exterior antenna, mounting hardware, barrel connector, ac power supply, and both 20' and 30' coaxial cables. Kudos to the folks at Wilson for providing a detailed and readable instruction manual. Tools that will come in handy if mounting outdoors are a drill, 3/16" bit, phillips head screwdriver and an adjustable wrench. After determining my strongest signal, I decided to mount the exterior antenna inside on a facing window. I used industrial strength two sided mounting tape over the recommended suction cups.
Just a reminder to mount the front of the antenna so that it faces towards the cell tower (which is the logo side) and not in the direction of the amplifier. To keep the system from oscillating and shutting down, I placed the amplifier about 30 feet away from the antenna. Always point the onboard antenna backwards towards the exterior antenna. The flashing of the red light means the gear is too close to each other and the unit will shut down. The green light means all systems are go. Luckily we got this model up and running after only two tries.
Now the important test. In the same space and about 10 feet away from the amplifier I opened my cell phone and got a surprise. Instead of getting the customary one bar for this location, I had the full compliment. That has never happened here. Conversations were crisp and clear. Instead of turning up my volume to hear the other party, I had to lower the volume on my phone. That is a first. To further test this system, I left the area and walked down the hall to the soda machine which is about 25 feet away. Even though I lost a couple of bars, my reception was still clear.
It goes without saying that this product is far superior then that overpriced piece of junk that my cell phone provider shipped out to me. The Utah based manufacturer backs this system with a one year warranty and also a 30 day money back guarantee. The company website is somewhat basic but offers great links to various product operating manuals, tech support and a toll free customer service number.
Regrettably my only disappointment remains with the overall design of the exterior antenna and cradle. Still this product delivers on a great signal. Even with its flaws, I can say that the folks at Wilson Electronics have built a winner. The overall quality speaks for itself. - Signal where we didn't have it before!
My office is buried deep within the basement of an old bank, so you can imagine how little signal we have down there. We ordered the Wilson Amp as a recommendation from a friend and from the reviews we had read online. After installing the antenna and placing the amp on my desk, I was ecstatic to see that my bars jumped right up immediately! A quick call to my wife confirmed it. Not only was I making calls where I previously couldn't, but she actually said it was more clear than most calls received throughout the day! My partner in the office next to mine came in a couple hours later wondering why his phone was ringing on his desk to when he had never received a call down there either! The Wilson Amp is worth MORE than its weight in gold! - Simple to use, but expensive cell phone signal boost system
Getting a good signal almost anywhere but home isn't difficult with my cell phone service, but getting a good one at home is a challenge. We will in a rural area and it isn't unusual to only get 2 bars, 3 at best. I took the time to mount Wilson's Signal Boost equipment both inside and outside of my home. I set it by the window just to see how well it would work, and I ended up with 5 bars. I then mounted it outside on the siding (I don't like clutter inside) using the long cable Wilson provides and got a full 5 bars as well. Unless you live in a really strange place, mounting it indoors should be sufficient for most people.
Indoor set up time: 10 minutes
Outdoor set up time: 45 minutes
This is an expensive product in the signal boost market, but it is very easy to use and if you use your cell phone as your land line, and need a stronger signal, I recommend this. It comes with everything you need for mounting it in any of the three recommended locations - at a window, outside on the siding of your house, or on a poll on the roof. - I can hear you now ...GOOD!
Simply put, the SignalBoost DT does what it says.
The 801247 kit is easy to set up. In fact, it took me longer to get it out of the packaging than it did to set it up. I used the option of attaching it to the inside of a window that faces towards the nearest cellphone tower. The was quite a distance from my desk, but the 50 feet of cable Wilson provides is up to the task. It is great to have it in two lengths in case you don't need to go as far, but I am glad then included a cable connector so that i could use the full length. I plugged the cable into the desktop unit, attached the antenna and plugged it in.
BAM! The bars on my phone went from the normal 1 (or two if I'm lucky) to the maximum! I now get a steady, strong signal. I walked around my office and the strength only started dropping off when I was about 15 feet from the transmitter -- impressive. Calls are clear and seem louder than before and I don't get the audio "cut-outs" that I used to.
Also included is equipment to be used if you want to mount the antenna to the outside of your building or onto a pole. I'm glad I didn't have to worry about that. All in all I'm happy with the SignalBoost DT, though I have to take away a star for the high price tag. There are cheaper alternatives on Amazon but I cannot vouch for their effectiveness. This is a big chunk of change just to get better cell reception, but if you really need it then you'll be glad you purchased the SignalBoost DT.

- Doesn't work very well.
Bought this because it said if you had a signal in your window it would enhance and extend it inside via the antenna which I did. I played with it for almost a month trying different rooms and windows and finally gave up. Finding a good place for it is almost impossible in a house because that means booster in one rooms window and antenna cable strung to another room.If the booster see's the antenna it will kick it out requireing frequent resets so they can't be in same room together!. Just not worth the money, I resold it already on ebay to recoup some of my wasted money. Also this comes with almost no direction on how to properly install and operate. What little I got was from the internet from someone else who tried to make this thing work. Just a piece of crap. - Does not work
The unit I received contained no instructions; no problem go online to company site to get them. Easy to install put the unit near window or anywhere you have service (at least one bar) then put the antenna at least ten feet away. The antenna cable is only 20' so it is difficult to go further than that unless you are going to have cable in front of you, then the next problem is that you can not have the cell phone near the unit so in my 15' x 12' office I could not move the unit and antenna around so that I could get a green light as you also have to have phone within 6' of antenna. Gave up after an hour of moving all over only to get a green light for a few moments then back to red. Did nothing to improve signal since I could not get a green light, presumably this would have indicated that I have a signal that my cell phone then would pickup. I may try the other four person Sprint device the company has? - works for us
Easy set up. In a condo SW Florida.My ATT 3G went from 1 to 4 bars. the signal fades but thats ATT . Least it doesnt fade out completely. Also got one for my sister in rural MI. Went from two bars to Five bars. We found the antenna needs to be real close to the air card ie receiver, for best results. - Good performance - bad reliability
First of all, the YX3000 performs as described. I have been using it in an office building where my cell phone reception is blocked by a steel structual support column. By placing the base unit in a window and routing the antenna wire around the structual column and placing the antenna near my desk, my reception improved by 3 to 4 bars.
The first unit failed just short of two months. The indicator light would quickly flash alternating green and red for a couple of seconds, then shut down. Unplugging the unit and plugging it back in got the same response. The zBoost customer service people were very nice and easy to reach on the phone and they set up a RMA to return and replace the YX300 with a brand new unit. With ground shipping both ways the turn around was about two weeks.
The new unit functioned for about two weeks and then went bad just like the first unit. Again, their customer service folks were very nice and are setting up another RMA replacement. This time I insisted that I should not have to pay shipping for shipping my unit back to them and they agreed. I don't have much confidence that the third unit will last very long, either. I'm keeping track of my warranty claims, from the time I make the claim to the time I receive a replacement, because the manufacturer must add that lost time back on to the warranty period. It is illegal (at least in California) for a manufacturer to run down the consumer's warranty clock while warranty claims are pending (as long as the delay is not on the consumer's end). The 1-year warranty is one year of usability by the consumer and not just one calendar year from purchase.
The bottom line is that this product does work--when it works at all. If there was a comparable product on the market I would switch to it in a heartbeat. But functionally competitive products require wired access to the outdoors, which for most people is not practical at work.
- It just WORKS!
It took me all of 2 minutes to be up and running with this great device. There are only 3 instructions (printed on the packaging), follow them to the letter and you should be fine. I really think most of the bad reviews here are due to not following directions OR expecting too much from a $100 item.
I get a 16db increase in signal within 6 feet from the antenna. The antenna and the phone need to be in the same horizontal plane for best results. you cannot get up and walk around the room and talk but you can certainly sit at your desk or in your easy chair and get the full benefit. I use a Blackberry 9630 for tethering to my lappy and as our "house phone" (dumped the landline years ago)but only getting about -105db to -115db made for many dropped connections. The Extender has changed all that. Now, I don't have to call people back with "cell phone dropped the call" so often. I highly recommend this product IF it is used and instructed.

- IT'S ALIVE!!!
I work in a large industrial building that has aluminum siding which prevents cell phone signals from getting inside. My formerly useless cell phone now has full bars!!! I haven't dropped a call or even had a weak signal since it was installed. FANTASTIC PRODUCT. - Works Good.
This has solved our problem of dropping calls in our home. The only problem that I had was getting the right connections from the base unit to the indoor antenna. I purchased it as a kit but it took over a week to get the right connectors and wire.

- Very, very disappointed
I get almost no AT&T reception in my house and I was thrilled to receive this product to help me use my iphone. I diligently set it up according to the directions; nothing. I get the green LED light, I was careful to maintain separation of 8 feet and keep the phone near the booster, and zip. No boost to my reception at all. I tried it on the opposite side of the house as well--same story. (Although, truthfully, I really only wanted a boost in my home office--who wants to make phone calls from, say, the kids' bedroom?). I read all reviews here, unplugged, replugged, no go. I called customer service; not a help.
I was all set to love this product, so I'm quite let down that it just doesn't work for me. If I had paid money for it, I'd be mad as well as disappointed.
Since it seems to work for some people, buy it, but make sure you do so from somewhere with a good return policy, like Amazon! - Works great but a bit pricey
This definitely does boost the signal of my cell phone. I tested it in areas that I know have dropped my calls and it worked. I use it in my car and have mounted the antenna on the back of my roof and simply hid the wire in the rubber fittings around the hatchback. The magnetic antenna is 12" tall but thin so you really don't notice it too much. This kit comes with everything you need to hook it up in your car or home. It has USB power too if you connect it to a laptop. It has the wall power adapter for home use as well as the cigarette adapter for your car. I'm glad all that came with the kit and I didn't have to search for plugs separately. It also comes with a zippered pouch to store everything in so you have all the plugs etc when traveling. It has a suction cup for a window and a wall mount too.
The main box (Amplifier) that you connect the antenna and power to is fairly small. Its about the length of a cell phone and just a bit smaller in width but slightly thicker. Its still small and I keep it in my dash bin. There's nothing to hook up to your cell phone which is nice and works pretty much with all cell phones from what I read. Another feature is that it will amplify more than one cell phone at a time but I have not tried this out yet. I read other reviews about the amp and antenna need to be as far away from each other as possible for things to work. As I have the antenna on the back of my car and the amp as far forward as can be I didn't see any issues with signal so I don't know how true this is. One other feature is that I powered it up via USB using my laptop but used a cell phone not data card and it worked well. Its just another way of powering it as you never know what situation you might be in when you need to make a call.
I'm going to visit my Dad soon and driving to his home thru the mountains always drops calls, this will be a great test and will update this review soon.
I gave it 4 stars because its rather pricey - "Raises the bar," but location is important
Because I live in an area with plenty of natural obstructions, the cell phone signals here are poor. I've even caught the neighbors going outside to make calls, trying to get a better signal, and accidentally revealing things that shouldn't be overheard!
While the booster can be used in a car and taken along for travel (the specific model this review is for includes an accessory kit with a convenient carrying case--check the product description for more information), I set it up for indoor use with the indoor components. The instructions are very clear and easy to follow once you know which set up process you prefer to use, and getting the entire system set up took only two minutes.
For indoors, the main problem in setting it up may be deciding where the components will go. The antenna needs to be on a window far away from the amplifier, at least eight inches away from people, yet where you feel you get the best signal, and the amplifier needs to be near your cell phone while it is in use. Figuring the logistics of all of this out for the location it would be used in took far longer than actually setting it up.
The system worked well upstairs, impressively resulting in the highest possible bar level on the cell phone model tried with it. However, installed on a lower level partially below grade, where it will be used, it doesn't make a consistent difference in the signal received. The bars go up to four at best (the highest on the phone being used), but not steadily. In both locations, compared to use without the system, the signal increases by about one bar . . . sometimes two.
For indoor use, the antenna should ideally be set up in an area of your home or business where you receive the best signal already. This isn't always possible--what if your home office--or wherever you make your cell phone calls--has poor reception, but your kitchen has good reception? Or what if the office cubicle you want to install it in has no outdoor windows (the antenna mounts on a window)? Before getting one for use inside a building, I would recommend deciding which room you wish to use the unit in. Next, decide if that room is fully compatible with the installation of this system by checking your cell phone near available windows to discern whether or not your signal is strongest in that location. - It Works, BUT...
...not sure about the price for this system. I suppose it depends on how badly you need a dependable signal, and how much you are willing to pay for that need.
I selected this item to review for two reasons:
1) We have a lot of drop spots in our area around Grand Rapids, MI due to the landscape.
2) I make a LOT of road trips through the midwest, and I have had to take a CB with me, in case I have an emergency in an area where I can't get a signal.
So far, it has worked great on my trips around west Michigan, but I have yet to test it out on my next trip to the Badlands. i won't be getting rid of my CB anytime soon.
Setting it up asn't as quick and simple as I had hoped, but the intruction manual was very detailed, with excellent illustrations, for every possible scenario you might need this system for. - MobilePro signal booster works great.
I have to commute out to a rural area for work and get poor cell phone signal with frequently dropped calls. After getting the Mobile pro, I have had a much better cell phone signal and more importantly no dropped calls. I have been very happy with product, and have no reservations about recommending it.

- The Wilson Electronics 801213 signal booster for my cell phone!
I was a bit apprehensive with purchasing a booster for my cell phone, but was getting frustrated with the "dead zones" I was experiencing.
After doing some research, I decided to make the big investment and purchased the Wilson Electronics 801213 Signal Booster. I was truly amazed with the improvement in my cell phone service in previously dropped call areas.
I now have confidence that when I am traveling by myself in some pretty awful Wisconsin weather that I will always have cell phone service available! What a great product! Thank you, Wilson Electronics, for such a superior product. - highly recommended
Took a chance on this kit, and I have been really impressed. It was easy to put in my truck and is sturdy and durable. The magnet antenna has never come off and the amplifier fits easily under the seat. When we go camping or travel anywhere we now have great cell signal. I highly recommend it. - Worth every penny!
Great product for travelling. Several times we have been in areas where the cell phone coverage was low. After hooking up to the antenna we were able to get service and make the calls we needed to. - Great product for rural areas
We use the Wilson Booster kit and a regular basis. We don't recieve cell service where we live. Because of this we have had to turn to Wilson. We have been very pleased. Not only does it help us out in our home town, but it comes in very convenient when traveling to remote areas. Many times I have been in groups of people when others could not get a cell signal. With Wilson I have been able to make many calls that I could not have otherwise. - Wilson Signal booster kit 801213 awesome
I live in Malibu, CA and I purchased wilson kit # 801213 for my i-phone and pc card and my signal went from 1 bar to 5 solid 3g bars. My provider is AT&T and I couldn't believe how well this kit works. My phone has to be in the cradle that the kit comes with but it's worth it becuase the improvement is amazing. I also love this kit because I can move it from my house to my car without a problem. I get 5 bars everywhere I go. I recommend this kit or any other wilson product.

- Installation, setup and use of Wilson Cellular Amp Kit
We have always had poor cellular service at our home, with 0 to maybe 2 bars showing on our phone. Therefore we have not been able to reliably use our cell phone at home. I have been looking for a reasonably and not too expensive way to increase our signal strength. When I ran across the Wilson Amp Kit, I was excited to give it a try. I had already prewired our home with RG6 cable, therefore I would not have to run any extra cable in those hard to get at places. I mounted the antenna outside, installed the indoor antenna and hooked up the amp. My signal strength bars now register 3 to 5 bars on my cellular phone, and I can now use my cellular phone. Wonderful. The key to this purchase was the RG6 cable usage. This made the installation very easy in my case. As I did not have to run a special cable to be able to use the cellular amp. This is a very compact unit and they give you everything you will need in the kit. An excellent buy.
