FYI that red/green startup sequence you see is actually an error. According to the manual the two antennas are too close together and it’s dropping into low power mode. You need to get the antennas further away from each other, or you might as well have purchased the low end model, ‘cause you’re not nearly getting its full power. Manual’s on their site, check out page 9 and try distancing them. You’ll notice no red light ever, and much better performance.
I am in Jamaica here on my farm I have no signal because I am down a slope but above me there are plenty signal do you recommend me using this to get signals where I am ?
Hi there! Hoping you might be able to help with my Weboost? It works great but as you know, you can't go more than a few feet from the interior antenna or it will stop working. We use our Weboost mainly at our cabin. Do you know if it is possible to set up either a router or a repeater type system with the Weboost in order to get more distance from the interior antenna? Thank much for any info you can share. Rich W.
A lot of people like to see how well a product is packaged. It usually says a lot about quality and a company's attention to detail. On your own reviews, you can do whatever you want, but its rather telling of a shitty personality when you're giving someone advice on how to make a video in their own style on their own channel.
I did it over and over and over to get consistent results. But I picked the tests with best audio and commentary feedback so times are off. I was filming for about 5 hours out there
Hey there, I'm up near Angleton Tx and I've been having terrible service literally everywhere. I've been reading about this company for a long time now. I've been curious about the Drive Reach. Do you get any weird uncomfortable sounds in your car from the wind hitting the antenna pole? And does your phone automatically see the signal from the booster or did you have to put your phone in airplane mode to "reset" it's connection? Thanks for your time! :)
I live in Arizona. Camping in the high country, 30 miles from town, definitely worth having. Worked for me.

Great video! Those speed tests before and after made me sure I will need one of the WeBoost product.
Thanks for the video - very helpful. Love the squadron patches. Fly Navy.
Have you tried this further down the beach? Like big shell? Looking at picking on up and want to know if it works further down.
Good information, thanks and new sub
Thanks for this man! Wondering how you routed wire through the roof of the 4Runner?
Glad you enjoyed the video! I ended up routing the cable alongside the back of my awning and under the passenger rear door seal.

Great video👍🏼. This is now on my Christmas list. Is this the model 472154?
Thanks Jeff and yes this is their newest model, 472154. 👍
How’s the drive with the antenna up? Does it flex at all at high speeds?
were you testing your signal ?
My download/upload speed doesn’t seem to make a difference when I turn the weboost on. Maybe because the area I was in, I already had good service?
Just install mine and tested driving to the mountains over here in California and didn’t get any signal 😞😞😞
Just wondering how you mounted that to your vehicle? I also have a Yakima Slimshady and it looks like you put your mount in the extrudes.
Which phone cell carriers are you with and where did you runs the outside antenna cable into the suv? Thanks
Thanks for the video! Which antenna extension did you end up using in the video? 13" or 18"? Looks 18'.

Have you been through an automatic car wash with the antenna mounted?
Not recommended
Can anyone tell me if the antenna can be taken off down pretty easily for running the vehicle threw the car wash ? Thanks
Where is your inside antenna mounted in relation to your phone?
Within 3 ft of where the phone would be :)
Nice hair, overlander!
😂🤷♂️
What service provider do you have when testing booster?
T-Mobile
Nice! Suggestion…most of us know how to open boxes, just get to biz right away

Get the overland one. Its a way stronger antenna
Cool review. Love your 4runner. How close did you position the internal antenna to your phone?
Thanks! And I mounted the interior antenna on the center console where my phone sits in the cup holder but it’s a 3ft range
Where you from? And how far down PINS have you tested this?
Hey Russ, I’m in Corpus Christi. The video shows me testing at 5 mile mark and lately I haven’t been any further
Why did you wait so long between tests? Almost an hour from the time you tested with the unit off to when you tested with it on.
I did it over and over and over to get consistent results. But I picked the tests with best audio and commentary feedback so times are off. I was filming for about 5 hours out there
Did you have to register this with your cell phone provider in order for it to work?
Nope, it will work with any phone that’s within vicinity

No wind noise at all, and the signal is an automatic boost!
I assume they GAVE it to you. 😉
This thing cracks at the antenna. $500 junk.
