    Works better than I thought it would!

    "After buying a highly recommended product that didn't work well I found this and wanted to try it out. I am glad since it is working better than I anticipated. The cabling included was only about 35ft long so I bought 100ft of RG6 and separated the units about 85ft from each other above the ceiling tile in our office. I only have 2 spots that fluctuate signal when I had about 80% dead zone prior to the install. ..." Read Full Review »

    "Used inside my home. Boosted my cell phone reception when I was within four feet of the amplifier unit and only when the receiver antenna was outside. According to the web advertisement, I thought I was going to get 3000 sq foot coverage; that is, coverage in most areas of the house, but that was not the case..." Read Full Review »

    "this thing ROCKS. In a cement strip mall we went from one half bar/0 bars to 4 or 5 bars on a motorola cell phone. haven't tried it for boosting wi-fi strength. Don't expect it to preform miricals. If you are in a completely dead area or cant get the external antenna outside it may not do anything. …"  Read Full Review »
