Customer Review
- Reviewed in Canada on June 21, 2024We have terrible reception in our home, especially in the basement, which makes WFH problematic if wired internet goes down. Bought the booster to try and address this - and ultimately it seems to make a difference, although it's not necessarily dramatic. Surprisingly, it helped most with data uploads. Details as follows:
- We installed the antenna on the roof, pointed towards the nearest cell tower
- We placed the base station in the basement
- With the booster turned off, speed tests got me around 1-3Mbps down, and 0-1Mbps up
- With the booster turned on, standing right next to the base station I get 5-10 Mbps down, 15-20 Mbps up
- With the booster turned on, standing in the furthest corner of our basement (around 8 meters), I get 4-6Mbps down, 5-6Mbps up
Ultimately it seems to definitely make a difference, even though the gains are not as dramatic as we hoped - and it's particularly weird that being 8 meters away from the base station had such an effect on speed. Still better than not having the booster!
