WiFi question

[LockChuck92]

I realize I’m showing my lack of technological knowledge, but I have a question about WiFi, or more accurately, cellular data. We’ll soon be staying in a campground that doesn’t have WiFi, and in those instances, I use my smartphone as a hotspot. However, where this campground is located, our LTE signal is very weak (sometimes dropping to 3G or less). I know that there are devices one can buy to increase WiFi signal...my question is, is there any device out there that amplifies a weak cellular data signal? Thanks for your help everyone!

I have the WeBoost 4G RV. Works great.

It will generally add TWO bars to my cell phone. But they say not to go by the bars its all about the dB. But I never check the dB meter built into the phone.... I just know its works and thats fine with me.

Also I have found out that if you have your phone set on "LTE" it will search for 4 G towers only but if you take it off of LTE it will use the closest tower which might be 3 G. I have seen one or two bar increase on my phone by changing this setting.

Where is a good place to get one of those WeBoost devices?

Amazon; of course.

Thanks! I wasn't sure if it was an "RV specific" device or not.

Get the model # with "RV" in it. That is really for bolt on ant for an RV. (Otherwise you will get the indoor ant for a home?). Fits nicely on the latter.

Its the small White ant. in my picture below. The pipe clamps are too large so I found a leftover clear plastic hose (flexible) that I cut to size and sliped over the latter then put the clamp over that. Worked perfectly.

The other ant is my WI FI Ranger. Its works great too. They both work together so I can work on the road.
