Customer Reviews
Customer rating is 3 of 5  Need a good signal to start with   2010-07-30
By john mahon (Woodland Hills, CA, US)
I think bottom line here is that you must find a strong signal at your location somewhere. Then install the antenna there. My signal is a sporadic ATT one. It fluctuates all day long. When it is a good signal then yes the Booster sends it down into my house via the transmitter. But it WILL NOT improve any signal strength.

The zBoost is an OK product for someone who lives where there is good cellular coverage outdoors (3 bars or more). If you live in a rural area where cellular reception is poor outdoors the zBoost will do little for you. Service bounces from 1 to 2 bars outdoors at my house; the zBoost is only able to boost the signal in a 5 foot diamter circle around the device... customer service now tells me that I need to spend about $200 more to get directional antennas to make it work right...

Instillation was also a big problem. They tell you there needs to be 20 feet of verticle seperation between the antenna and the base unit... but what they don't tell you this will not work if you have a metal roof. The antenna has to be atleast 8 feet above the metal roof(or any other metal) or it freaks out and will not work at all. It's a real trick to build a 30-foot antenna tower, without using any metel, in order to get the antenna high enough to make it work.

If you have a good outdoor signal this is an ok product, if you have poor outdoor signal, don't waste your $.
Customer rating is 1 of 5  TOTALLY UNRELIABLE   2010-07-27
By SammIam
I purchased this to increase my signal at my lake house.... the unit does work, but is totally unreliable. There are times when the lights go red, red flashing, I've tried all manner of things such as changing the position of the antena etc... I even called their customer service, for all intents and purposes, customer service sucks. I would NOT recommend purchasing this unit. It is not stable at all, I would have done just as good if I had taken my hundreds of dollars spent, and lite fire to them. I am and EXTREMELY disastisfied customer.
Customer rating is 5 of 5  It Actually Works!   2010-07-25
By Bobby L Buntin
I bought this for my parents who live out in the middle of nowhere in Virginia. I bought 50 feet of extension cable and put the exterior antenna up on their roof. As soon as I did that, both of my parents could use their Alltel phones in the house. Previously, they couldn't get a signal without driving half a mile away.

My Verizon aircard also worked using this extender, though the signal was still weak. My AT&T iPhone still had no reception, but I guess you can't have everything.

I didn't see how this thing could possibly work, but it does. Just take the time to install it the way that the instructions tell you to. The more separation you can put between the base and the exterior antenna, the better reception you will get.
Customer rating is 5 of 5  Delivered and Worked As Advertised!   2010-07-22
By Aaron J. Isaacs (Lancaster, California, US)
As advertised, Amazon delivered our zBoost in under 24 hrs. I suppose it helps that it was shipped out of Louisville, Kentucky where UPS is headquartered. Anyway, we set it up in under 5 minutes (time depends on how you want to run the cable) and it worked great. We tested T-Mobile, Verizon, and AT&T carriers with our PDAs and even a mystery pay-by-minute track phone. All carriers were between three to five bars of service where there was absolutely none prior to setting up the zBoost. Anyway, small paragraph of our setup here. We have a metal shelter, and initially I was concerned the metal would affect our externally connected antenna - it didnt. The attachment piece for the external antenna is made of an insulation type plastic so separation was easy between our hard shelter and placement of the antenna. The zBoost we placed center of our shelter inside against a metal wall, and as I described above, no issues. Excellent little device, and now we'll see about its endurance...
