4g Booster…. HELP!!

[DaveT]

There are so many 4g boosters about, and really don’t know where to start.
Does anyone have any recommendations for boosting the 4g signal.

First of all you need a good aerial receiving signal. If not you cannot nothing.

This is what i am looking for recommendations for people for… there are so many and need some help

The Avtex one seem to come recommended any may be worth a look. We simply used our mobile phones to download data. If mobile phone cannot get a signal, 4G booster stands no chance either.

A decent external aerial linked to a MIFI unit will create a local WIFI net which can be used for wifi calling by mobile phones.

However you still need a signal!

Clearly with no signal it can't boost one from nothing, however, there are antenna having far better signal gain than the one in a mobile phone.

Gleaning and then boosting an otherwise too weak signal for a handset to a viable one is what these 4G boosters are created to achieve. There must be any number of locations where the signal is too minimal for a mobile phone handset, but a purpose made system pulls in enough. A lot will depend on the bandwidth one's needs requires.

I carry two different provider's SIMs in mobiles, this extends the number of places I get all the signal I need, but my bandwidth needs are minimal anyway.

Tread very carefully as 4g repeaters are very tightly regulated and many are not legal in the UK.
Better to buy a MiFi and external aerial and use that to connect to the outside world.
Also two Sims on different networks are the way forward.
