The Wireless Extenders zBoost system includes:
- Outdoor antenna (repeats the signal) can be installed outdoors above the roofline or indoors in the attic or near a window
- Coax cable (RG6- ultra low-loss, DBS satellite) connects from the outdoor antenna to the base unit
- Base unit: Sleekly designed, it amplifies the signal and provides oscillation detection/correction which protects the carrier network using patent-pending technology.
- Indoor antenna connects to the base unit to repeat the signal and create “Cell Zone”–no physical connection to the phone is needed.
Installation
Choosing the best location for installation of the Signal Antenna provides the best performance and the largest area of improved signal. Determine the location that provides the strongest signal using the signal strength indicator on your cell phone. For the best reception, find the location that provides the most bars of signal strength and locate the Signal Antenna at that location.

HOOKED IT UP DID NOT WORK TO WELL DID NOT PICK UP MUCH DO TO THE VALLEY I LIVE IN.
Rating: 1 / 5
Bought this about a year ago, since our office has no window directly to the street so the signal is weak for everybody, that include people with Sprint, T-Mobile, Verizon, AT&T and so on. Checked with zBoost and they said it’s fine to all of the different company phones. Read a nice review in NY Times and decided to go for it.
I tried every single way possible in the instructions, called the support, sent it back twice, but NOTHING WORKS. They just said our signal is too weak to boost. But if I can get signal leaning over the windows, won’t this thing be able to increase it? Isn’t that what we need this thing for??? If you can’t increase or boost a weak signal then this thing is a total piece of garbage!!!
I wasted $400 for a plastic stick and a bunch of useless wires. DON’T BUY THIS FOR CHRIST’S SAKE!!!!

didn’t work for us… if it hadn’t already been painfully installed into our home… I would have returned it for all that wasted money

This product can only transfer a signal from the outside. There MUST be a strong signal already available. It is difficult to assess the effectiveness of the product. It cannot increase a weak signal. Also, the customer service related to this product is difficult to contact. Their lines are always busy.
