zBoost YX545 SOHO

Excellent Choice!

I am very pleased with the performance of this booster. I went from no bars to 3 bars throughout the house and the mifi works exceptionally fast. Very happy I purchased the booster.

Z-Boost cell signal booster

I was really excited about the reviews I read about this product, but have not been completely impressed. First of all the outside antenna is very cheap and flimsy, and the coax they sent, while plenty of it is about the cheapest stuff you can buy. On the positive side, it did give me one extra bar and my calls are clear, but still just drop in the middle of a conversation. My son is going to try putting better coax on and placing the outside antenna in a different location to see if that makes a difference. I told both my sons who live in a fringe area of reception, that if it worked well I would get both of them one for their home, but so far I am not ready to purchase.

Worth every penny!

We live in a rural area which already makes our cell phone signal weaker but we also have a metal roof on our house. Installing the zBoost allowed us to use our phones and internet hotspot anywhere in the house with as strong a signal as we got outside the house.

Very satasfied

I use my zBoost yx545 at camp, before the zBoost I would have only one bar of signal strength outside the camp and only in certain areas. Now when I turn the power on the zBoost I have three bars inside the camp and one to two bars outside close to camp. I have showed this product to my neighbors around camp and they are talking about getting one themselves.
I'm very happy with this product.

Great product

I have used this product myself and bought for all the neighbors. To use my cell in the house before, I had to stand at the back door with my foot in the dog dish to get a signal. Now I can use my cell all through the house including the basement and no dropped calls.

zboost for cell phone

installed in a metal building as far from metal as possible as per directions. Did not improve service enough to recommend to others.

It Works!

With three phones and unlimited everything in the family, we weren't able to take advantage of the 3g network most of the time, because we live in the boonies. Even our phone signal was very weak most of the time, sometimes not even being able to call or receive calls inside the house. We had to walk the yard or driveway to talk with friends
Now with the zBoost YX545 we can call anywhere from in the house, even the basement living area. We are able to use our phones hot-spot to surf the web on our pc. It's not super fast, but faster than dialup. We have now been able to lose the landline. We are satisfied with our purchase of the YX545 SOHO.

Requested Review

The zBoost works well on most cell phones, but my Verizon Blackberry phone has experienced a number of connection and disconnect problems.

works great

I have a cabin in western Maryland in the deep creek lake area. Verizon had terrible service so I switched to AT&T. Their service was considerbly better, but I would drop calls in my pole building. After installing this (and changing antenne locations a couple times) I now get great 3G service. Just make sure you have a good outside signal.

works as advertised

Follow directions to a "T" and this unit will work just fine. I had to move mine around a little bit inside the house to get the best overall service but other than that works good.
