GBCauses overheating in Verizon Mifi Jetpack After talking to customer rep, I apparently ordered wrong power supply. Would have appreciated a notification that power supply I ordered was not compatible with amplifier I ordered. Specifically talked to rep re my use with Verizon Wifi Jetpack. Was transferring large files between two computers on my homegroup. Took several hours, but Jetpack failed due to overheating by amplifier.

GBDO NOT order- if you need to return it, you will struggle to get a refund!! I purchased a Wilson Amplifier with installation on 11/09/23. It arrived in a timely manner and I scheduled installation through the information they provided. When the technician arrived to install the amplifier, he was not able to find any location (and he tried several places on the roof) that increased my cell signal reception beyond what is was without the amplifier. That was unfortunate as I had hoped for a better signal, but perhaps not the fault of the amplifier. However, the biggest reason for my 1 star rating (and I would give zero stars if possible) is the problems I have faced trying to get my refund since then. I contacted customer service 11/16/23 to arrange a return. The email with directions stated it would take 7-10 business days after they received the amplifier back for the refund to process. I was also told when on the phone with customer service that I would be refunded for the cost of return shipping. It cost me $151.36 to ship it back via UPS. They received the amplifier back on 11/30/23 per the tracking from UPS. It is now 1/2/24 and I have not received a refund for the amplifier ($1390.99) or the return shipping costs ($151.36). Even considering the holidays, it is far past the 7-10 business days they stated, and I am still owed $1,542.35. My recommendation: Do NOT order from this company! If the device does not work for you, getting your money refunded will be a struggle.

GBThe Wilson Weboost amplifier really … The Wilson Weboost amplifier really helped boost our cell phone signal and computer internet speed in our 4,000 sq ft home. We had one to zero bars on our cell phones with slow speed internet connection to three bars and fast internet connection. This signal amplifier really does work. You have to follow the directions and adjust the outside amplifier in the right direction and get the cable run distance over 25 feet away from the indoor amplifier pointing away from each other. A real easy set up which took about an hour to get the system all working properly.

GBPurchased a reconditioned cell amp Output of amp is not what was expected. The amp was suppose to cover 2500 sq ft, when I installed it, you had to be within 6 feet to have any improvement in cell service. Found out from wilson tech support that the reconditioned unit I purchased with a one year warranty has a high failure rate within one to two months. Very disappointed that the reconditioned unit is not reliable!!

GBEmployees and product are very good. Received advice and recommendations that were most helpful. It was also very helpful to read reviews that have been posted. Signal increased to two bars or better. Pizza pan on top of fiberglass RV works(to attach magnetic antenna). Highly recommend WeBoost Drive 4G-X used with Wilson 311155 (inside antenna). Standard little antenna(outside) that comes with 4G-X mounted to 16" metal pizza pan works well in my situation.
