Love the the content sir. People who want to live in peaceful rural environment who still want to be connected to the world to communicate and do business this is so important. Side not my mother maiden name is Kelly so I must subscribe and like.
I bought one of these and installed it in the mountains of NH. Went from 0-1 bars to 4-5 bars LTE (Verizon). As for the 5G TMobile Home Internet, it uses both 5G and 4G bands. This booster certainly helped out the TMobile 5G Home Internet as well! I was shocked and glad I have full cellular and 5G internet in an off-grid situation. Amazing!
As a former cell phone company field worker. I went out an bought a universal cell phone signal booster for my RV and a portable one for my work truck. Never dropped a call. It was less expensive than the ones offer by the cell phone company that I worked for. At remote locations where there was no cell phone coverage I would open up the RV windows and let my neighbors used it
Finally! I have been looking for someone to address aesthetics. I surely would never get my wife on board with the booster (with 2 coaxial cables, and the power cord) mounted out in plain sight. This is exactly how I will install mine. Only the indoor antenna needs to be visible. Thank you.
you have a delightful, easy going style. it extends a comforting sense of "you can do this"... to some pretty state of the art knowledge you are blessed with experience in! Bravo
I have the same booster and it works great. Works much much better than the comparable we-boost booster. Went from 1 bar outside to full bars inside watching Netflix and RUclips.
Every time I see the glass fronted cabinet in your kitchen I want to put the shelves in line with the window frames so the shelves are not seen ...yes I have OCD tendency too lol .Best wishes from the North Norfolk coast UK
I bought all my items on eBay separately. I have made a dual yagi antenna. I attached a in ground lighting rod, to antenna and house. Have had mine up for 2 years, use my unlimited data with visible for $ 25 bucks a month for telephone and internet.
Hi, Andrew! As always, this is an excellent video and the installation was well planned. I am getting excited for the time when you can move into your dream home. All the inside projects will be fun and interesting.
@@TKCL it’s what makes a house into a home. As far as I am concerned, everything looks nice and “homey” already. Your personalities are mirrored in your choice of finishing touches.
It worked for me. I went from 3 bars to one when ATT sold out to Verizon. I had a booster but it wasn’t much help. First I checked the frequency and yes it is compatible for both providers. I raised the antenna temporarily using a piece of pvc pipe higher above the metal roof. Instantly saw increased signal. Next step was to make a higher mast to get the best line of sight. Big boost! While rerouting the in cable I noticed great variations in reception. By placing the cable in the attic in several locations I found the best signal location. Note make sure this cable has no overlaps or even close proximity to the rest of the cable. It can parasite itself and cancel out.
Over the years I've used cellphones of various types and played around with passive boosters on the phones themselves,on vehicles,and on a house or two,I've noticed my need to boost signals is less than it used to be. I think phones are better and they do add towers still to this day both of which help alot of course. My current home happens to have a tower within about 1/2 mile so my now broken LG phone always had max signal,the lower level Samsung I replaced it with is only 2-3 bars on average,so phone ability matters too. I am absolutely convinced that powered units do have their good uses,like you showed here. I am also convinced that sometimes,some folks,might only need a lesser passive boost just to bump it up a bit and stabilize it for reliability. Off topic a bit- The absolute worst piece of crap phone signal-wise I owned was a Motorola StarTac(around year 2000),I finally got so frustrated with it I opened it and ran it over with my 96 Silverado 4x4 several times which didn't kill it! LOL. Why makes a phone with such horrible signal so damn tough?!?! Other than signal I liked that flip phone alot,but it was for shit at it's main purpose. I went to LG and stayed with them for 20 years until just recently.
Before about the year 1998 Motorola made their stuff to be tough and used to be good; radios, pagers, cell phones, etc. But then they got behind with technology advancements and they split into 2 different companies in 2011 which both now make terrible products IMO.
Nice video. When I relied on hotspot, id always put my phone in the window. My old phone didn't support connecting to more than one band. Now, my new phone does and my speeds went from 3mbps down in the window to usually around 20Mbps. Seen high as 80 once. Upload chills around 2-3Mbps in the window.
Amazboost is a cheaper and to me a better system using cables that are more common. You can also purchase another indoor antenna that is ceiling mount that will provide a better signal throughout your home. Regardless, love watching your videos. You are extremely through! Keep it up!
I live in the country...and prior to owning a cell phone booster I could only get cell phone reception if I stood in the right spot in my driveway..after I installed a cell phone booster I now get reception any where in my house .. if a person has a reception problem do to distance I seriously recommend getting one ..Oo ya I now get 4 bars..
I just got the att hotspot plan here in rural Michigan and it works great. The best part is by adding auto pay to my account which has 3 lines on it nocked $40 off my bill which makes my hotspot only $10 a month! Anyone with att needs to look into this.
Good advice. What I don’t know is whether I need one in the city here, my inside signal poor. I also why you don’t see this type product in any store. And I see no ads for workers doing antenna installations.
I tried installing a booster in my house but they wanted the antenna placed so far away from the base that it meant stringing unsightly wire everywhere. I sent it back and bought Starlink. It's pricey, but worth it where I live. If the FCC ever lets Starlink run mobile signals, my cell service issues will be resolved as well.
Andrew I have to say you have a great attic space. Love how you have it lit up and you can walk around it with no problem. The house is looking great..
Nice video. It doesn't really apply to you, but always include a drup loop on cables especially entering walls. The cable runs down the up to the hole or connector in a U so water drips away and off the loop bottom. That outside connector would last better with a wrap of self amalgamating tape which will stick only to itself and form a waterproof rubber boot. Bery cheap hand tuff, saves things from exposure and seals nicely. I wrap some tool handles with it for a nice grip too.
If you have multiple cell towers near enough, it's possible to aim a directional antenna at each and use a combiner to improve download performance. I wouldn't exceed three antennas due to cost and the availability of 3-input combiners. In your particular case, an omnidirectional antenna mounted high enough to clear your local trees might be your best solution but would need lightning protection. Have you considered putting up a Rohn tower? 😉
Hello Andrew Great Review. I got fed up with my Cable Provider last year and cancelled House Phone, Internet and TV and I was able to Get StarLink and Love it I am in Northern NJ and the Internet is on 24x7. I have the first Revision with the Round Dish and Attached Cable I see the Revision 2 it is a Square Dish with the Cable that can be removed from the dish which I like better because if you damage the cable you can just replace the cable not have to replace the entire dish. What I found interesting is being where I live we get that white stuff that falls from the sky (Snow). They updated my software in the winter and the dish actual has heaters in it that melts the snow, I thought that was cool. Love your House build looks like you are almost to the Finish Line and ready to move in.
Metal roofs are the best. When it rains here it is so soothing. Except all the flooding we are getting in Kentucky at the moment. I'm in a holler, I wonder if something like this would work here.
Just personal experience, having installed a couple of these on our old ranch house with a metal roof (and almost no signal indoors), I found the WeBoost to be considerably superior product in terms of it's boost abilities. Perhaps others will have different experiences.
I love mine, but I am pleased with the results of this one as well. I am getting similar results as the Weboost that I have in my shop. I don't think you can go wrong with either.
Good point. All systems are required by the FCC to be registered, although they work without registration. Takes about 5 minutes online, so do as you will.
Great video! You can now have the weather channel on while you work instead of silence! Though I just keep looking at that wall where the stairs will eventually be...When I built my last stairs I just bought 2 2x12x16', cut out the risers and treads from a premade strip, braced the ground end, screwed in to the ledger board, leveled the treads and built a landing where it needed to go. Not a bit of math, but they turned out beautiful none the less. Dying to see how you build the right way, know I'll have to wait though... I could have used your info when I installed my weeboost decades ago. But trial and error also works :) LOVED the ending...Sorry the spray foam went wild on ya, been there done that! I kinda like getting it on my hands. After I'm done for the day sit and pick it off...But in hair? Yikes! I've ruined so many shirts and pants as well as shoes...You'd think I'd learn.."I'll be careful" doesn't work with spray foam!
Hey man..1st time viewer. Will Like & sub. Me & my daughter live on a little piece of heaven on earth my grandmother left me in her will. 20 ish acres with 2 of the property lines being small creeks that merge at the corner of the property. Pretty sweet. Live in a single wide right now,but want to do a pole barn/self build asap. Got to get $ right before I can get started. Getting Close …Finally! L8r
The diameter of a circle that is 1000 square feet is about 36 feet. So, if this box is correct, then it is good for almost 18 feet in each direction from the inside antenna. 1,500 feet only helps a little bit. It makes a reception/broadcast circle of almost 44 feet, or almost 22 feet from each direction from the inside unit. However, this might be fine.
Lol… I was just thinking what does he have in his beard… then I got my answer. It got a rather boisterous laugh out of me even while (or perhaps because) I felt your pain. Good review. Thanks.
I’d get home internet ugh. I live in the sticks and my signal here is -120dB or one bar and if my internet’s out there’s little chance I can use any data but I’ve had a booster like yours sitting in a box in the closet for years now so maybe I’ll put it in someday.
Hey... The house is amazing! I'm surprised you haven't got starlink yet. I was on the list for starlink for a year and about 2 weeks .. I finally got the email that it was available to me in mid February 2022 and promptly ordered it. It was delivered about a week and a half later. I love it. Hopefully you are close to getting that same email. The sooner the better. One thing about starlink... they have gone up in monthly fee by $10. They say it's due to current inflation. Not a deal breaker for me... but good fyi for those that don't know.
It's also worth noting.. If you think you will need the Ethernet adapter, order it as soon as you are able. Basically order starlink... Then a few minutes later go on their shop page and order the Ethernet adapter. I did this and it took over a month to get the adapter.
@@TKCL. Another tip.. when you get your starlink and you are ready to permanently install it. If you are going to drill a hole in the wall for the cable to pass through and you want the smallest hole possible without cutting and splicing the cable...Drill a hole big enough for the dish end of the cable. A 3/4" hole is barely big enough if my memory serves. If you use the router end of the cable... It's a bigger hole... 1" hole might be big enough.
If you have any friends that get starlink before you.. you can always see if they will order it for you. I'd order it for you but being in Texas...it isn't much of a benefit being It'd have to be shipped to me and then to you.
I work on cell phones and i learned from where I work at right now when i get to work i have to turn airplane mode on and off to force it to switch towers and do the same when i get home. hope this helps you some.
I'm looking for the best options for my old Japanese house in the country. Currently, the only way I can get cell signal is to go outside, away from the house. The original thatched roof is still on it, but it is also covered by a copper roof. The signal is absolutely killed indoors!
Not sure if this is already been mentioned or not but you having a metal roof most likely remove your need for a 20 foot vertical separation and the two antennas
Best to amplify RF signals directly at the external antenna, yagi or dish and not after a length of cable.. Make a water tight box for the amp and mount it as close to the external antenna with a N to N connector. Should provide an additional 3-4 dB of gain
Just watched this episode on a Oculus VR headset on RUclips VR app 😮 I swear I was standing in the loft with you, specs of white paint on your thumb, and Bullet barking in the house made me want to look behind me 😳 you’ve got to check that out sometime! LOL
@@TKCL I laughed at the blooper at the end the MOST! it was awesome. I'm going to check out your other videos today. Also - just ordered the Hiboost using your affiliates link! I appreciate you.
I wouldn’t mount it at the peak of the roof. You don’t want the two to feedback. I would do a ceiling penetration and install it like a smoke alarm in the hallway next to the kitchen, in front of the pantry. Without that separation you might not get good performance. Even though it says 80’degrees in front, it still spills a little behind it. It’ll cover your attic den.
@@TKCL somewhat? It’s not sharp like a laser. In our office building we have a central rack mounted cell repeater and 6 of those indoor antennas identical to yours. They’re mounted to drop tile ceiling tiles every 80 feet. Phenomenal coverage. A yagi antenna is focused, but that indoor antenna doesn’t have a high gain, therefore it’s much less directed than you think. I install networking and wireless ISP equipment for work for about a decade
I have a WeBoost and I was able to mount my indoor antenna many feet away from the booster. I don’t recall if I purchased additional coax for the indoor antenna.
All you need for a metal roof is 2 antennas ie old tv channel 2 - 83 Mount 1 outside mount 1 under metal roof hook up both to coax… the inside one will repeat your signal to the outside one and vice versa outside to inside. Called a passive repeater in the rf world… if you get your satellite internet connection you can turn on the wifi calling option on your cell phone … so when your phone has weak cell signal but strong wifi signal it will make calls using your internet connection bypassing the cell towers

This boosts cellular signal only. Unless you have a cellular wifi router.
did you have a weboost before?

Metal roofs are the best. When it rains here it is so soothing. Except all the flooding we are getting in Kentucky at the moment. I'm in a holler, I wonder if something like this would work here.
Those hills definitely block signal. Stay safe!
Thank You!!!! EXCELLENT video!
Glad you enjoyed it
The broadcast pattern of the antenna is called the beam width.
You do a great job creating content!
Thank you
Interesting video. Cell towers polarize ar 45 degrees from vertical. You might improve signal by tilting the antenna.
Just personal experience, having installed a couple of these on our old ranch house with a metal roof (and almost no signal indoors), I found the WeBoost to be considerably superior product in terms of it's boost abilities. Perhaps others will have different experiences.
I love mine, but I am pleased with the results of this one as well. I am getting similar results as the Weboost that I have in my shop. I don't think you can go wrong with either.

Hopefully you are close to getting that same email. The sooner the better. One thing about starlink... they have gone up in monthly fee by $10. They say it's due to current inflation. Not a deal breaker for me... but good fyi for those that don't know.
I'll gladly pay the increase if it's as promised.
It's also worth noting.. If you think you will need the Ethernet adapter, order it as soon as you are able. Basically order starlink... Then a few minutes later go on their shop page and order the Ethernet adapter. I did this and it took over a month to get the adapter.
I see they are back ordered, I tried to order the adapter and the mounting pole. They won't let me order until they ship out my dish.
@@TKCL. Another tip.. when you get your starlink and you are ready to permanently install it. If you are going to drill a hole in the wall for the cable to pass through and you want the smallest hole possible without cutting and splicing the cable...Drill a hole big enough for the dish end of the cable. A 3/4" hole is barely big enough if my memory serves. If you use the router end of the cable... It's a bigger hole... 1" hole might be big enough.
If you have any friends that get starlink before you.. you can always see if they will order it for you. I'd order it for you but being in Texas...it isn't much of a benefit being It'd have to be shipped to me and then to you.
I work on cell phones and i learned from where I work at right now when i get to work i have to turn airplane mode on and off to force it to switch towers and do the same when i get home. hope this helps you some.
Great video thank you
I really enjoyed this.
Glad you enjoyed it
I've got that spray foam on me and it just drives me crazy growl Raw
I've never got it everywhere like that! It's there to stay sadly!
I'm looking for the best options for my old Japanese house in the country. Currently, the only way I can get cell signal is to go outside, away from the house. The original thatched roof is still on it, but it is also covered by a copper roof. The signal is absolutely killed indoors!
That's where these devices shine, they bring that signal from outside to indoors.
Not sure if this is already been mentioned or not but you having a metal roof most likely remove your need for a 20 foot vertical separation and the two antennas
Thank you! Great job.
Thank you for watching
Very nice and informative video
Glad you liked it
@6:15
I have a hunch that the closer cell phone tower (1.5 miles away) has directional antennas - and not aimed towards you.
That's correct, cellmapper.net shows that.
Best to amplify RF signals directly at the external antenna, yagi or dish and not after a length of cable.. Make a water tight box for the amp and mount it as close to the external antenna with a N to N connector. Should provide an additional 3-4 dB of gain
Thank you
I’m never complaining about my phone speed ever again.
Just watched this episode on a Oculus VR headset on RUclips VR app 😮 I swear I was standing in the loft with you, specs of white paint on your thumb, and Bullet barking in the house made me want to look behind me 😳 you’ve got to check that out sometime! LOL
Say what? I didn't realize RUclips offered something like that!
The headset is Oculus Quest 2
thank you VERY MUCH! I needed this
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@TKCL I laughed at the blooper at the end the MOST! it was awesome. I'm going to check out your other videos today. Also - just ordered the Hiboost using your affiliates link! I appreciate you.
Not sure if someone else has suggested this, but you should probably weather proof the coax connector that is outside before it fills with water.
Nearly there!
Thanks all of this apps are useful when i buy network signal booster I will use them❤
You should have the indoor ant on your 2nd fl ceiling so your cone of boosted signal covers your 1st floor area
Hard to complain with the results, I often have 5 bars of signal in the house and porch.
Who's just here waiting for him to say that download speed
This is more for phone signal and dropped calls than data speeds.
I wouldn’t mount it at the peak of the roof. You don’t want the two to feedback. I would do a ceiling penetration and install it like a smoke alarm in the hallway next to the kitchen, in front of the pantry.
Without that separation you might not get good performance.
Even though it says 80’degrees in front, it still spills a little behind it. It’ll cover your attic den.
If I do ceiling mount, it'll be firing down and not out.
@@TKCL somewhat? It’s not sharp like a laser.
In our office building we have a central rack mounted cell repeater and 6 of those indoor antennas identical to yours. They’re mounted to drop tile ceiling tiles every 80 feet.
Phenomenal coverage.
A yagi antenna is focused, but that indoor antenna doesn’t have a high gain, therefore it’s much less directed than you think.
I install networking and wireless ISP equipment for work for about a decade
I have a WeBoost and I was able to mount my indoor antenna many feet away from the booster. I don’t recall if I purchased additional coax for the indoor antenna.
Thank you so much for this video !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Glad you enjoyed it
All you need for a metal roof is 2 antennas ie old tv channel 2 - 83
Mount 1 outside mount 1 under metal roof hook up both to coax… the inside one will repeat your signal to the outside one and vice versa outside to inside. Called a passive repeater in the rf world… if you get your satellite internet connection you can turn on the wifi calling option on your cell phone … so when your phone has weak cell signal but strong wifi signal it will make calls using your internet connection bypassing the cell towers
Very interesting!
Your Barndominium is awesome. It’s a shame inflation hit in the middle of the build. But y’all stuck with it.
No kidding, I'd saved $40k easily. I was really planning on using that money elsewhere.
Good jod and also good speaker.
4:35 your metal flashing could use a faster to make it secure against the fascia
Great review i have that same antenna for my cell camera on the pig trap...
Nice!
What do you think of Nomad internet for RVing?
I've not researched it or tested it.
