Question: I have an existing pole with an old nonfunctional Dish on it. Would mounting the Wilson antenna in front of the Dish help pull in more signal?
Document: This item works great - signal was boosed from 1 bar to 3 to 4 bars in the house. It also quadrupled my internet connection speed. Kit came complete with everything to istall it- including precut coax cables. Note: I needed to provide a 1.5" diameter pipe to mount it to the house. I used an old dish TV wall mounting bracket. Make sure you read the instructions before you start.I would definitely buy this product again - especially from Amazon (I saved almost $200 over Radio Shack's price).
My pole barn is right in the middle of a dead-zone on the verizon coverage map, so I took a chance and bought this so if someone is working in there and has a problem they can call for help. It definately meets my expectations! Without it, as soon as you entered the barn you would lose any signal and that would drain the battery on the phones. Now, you have 3-4 bars within 40 feet of the internal antenna. We put the outside antenna on a 17 ft piece of pipe and pointed it in the general direction of a known cell tower 7 miles away.
This gave me enough boost to make calls in my house reliable. I was limited to about 50db boost out of the available 65db due to feedback from the available antenna placement options in my structure. The instructions say to avoid interference, mount the two antennas 20 vertical feet apart. That's hard to do in a typical one story home because the outside antenna would have to be about 30 feet high if the indoor antenna was mounted in a ceiling. Not everybody has a 30 foot pole in their yard. I ended up mounting it 25 feet up in a tree and it was enough to allow sufficient boost to improve my reception from about 105db to about 90db.
The directional antenna is dialed in on the closest cell tower and I get full bars in the main area of the house when before I got 1 or 2 on a good day, and generally could not hold a call.The kit has everything we needed - except a lightening surge protector and an exterior antenna mount which I had from an old satellite dish. Easy setup and great instructions.
We bought this for our cottage as we had almost no signal (on a rare occasion we might get 1 bar in the dining room). If we were lucky we could get 2 bars at the road.We installed this and now get 4-5 bars through most of the cottage and can now access the Internet through my USB modem. Install was easier than I planned as well. Since this uses regular coax cable, we were able to use the current cable from a dish satellite that was no longer being used and mount the outside antenna to the same pole.I highly recommend!
A quick call to Wilson Electronics eased my fears and cleared the confusion. Wilson Electronics customer service showed me how to check my actual signal (not just the bars showing on the front of the phone) and instructed me to walk around my house noting the signal level I was receiving. A second call with this data, the determination was made that I would need the kit with the directional antenna. Two days later, I received my kit and installed the system in an evening (3-4 hours). Voila, clear crisp connections throughout my home.
I wound up putting the inside antenna on the ceiling facing down. My wife's old flip phone gets better reception than my Samsung smart phone. Instructions say the tech support will help you locate your cell tower but that works only if your phone is capable of reading the signal strength. I had to keep moving the directional antenna and the check the bars on the phones in the house. All in all it took a couple of days to get it right. Their tech service is polite and knowledgable. Be prepared to put a few holes in your walls and/or ceilings.
The cable next runs accross the attic to the amplifier,(We tapped an existing attic junction box for the power)the Panel antenna is laying against the drywall ceiling under the insulation in front of the bedroom hall on the other side of the house (just as recomended). We now have 4 bars and high speed internet access on all iPhones and smartphones on both floors and outside patios. Fantastic result! Made our first cell phone calls from the beach house a few days ago. Emails and texts are all on time and complete.
I live in a marginal Verizon reception and AT&T; dead zone. My old farmhouse has a metal roof and while the outdoor signal was 2-3 bars in the front yard, it was 0-1 in the house. We didn't receive most calls and dropped the ones we got if we didn't run to the front yard fast enough!The DB Pro took us to five bars all inside the house!Here's the worst part. You have to mount an atenna on the outside that points toward the closest tower.
Had it for a few days and just got it all hooked up properly and got help from friends with the hard wiring and running the cable - and mounting. I am thrilled for the first time in 20 years to be able to have a lightning fast wifi signal from my cell phone hotspot, and 5 bars INSIDE my walkout basement apartment in the land that technology forgot (rural Vergennes Township) Michigan). No cell towers allowed in our township and a decent signal around here is rare. Tech support gave me incorrect info saying this unit was too powerful for what I want.
Answer: The key would be to get an app for your mobile phone and make sure you point it in the right direction. I would guess it would not matter what you mount it on as long as you have pointed to the nearest tower.
