Even though the Verizon Network Extender is 3G only, will this extend 4G with it?

No, because the Verizon Network Extender only creates voice and 3G signals. This antenna simply enhances what the Network Extender creates from its internet connection.

Mine doesn't have 3G. It has an extra antenna component that I just tucked into the casing. Works fine

Negative. This version is wi-fi only. The 3G version is the one that has calling capabilities.

Will support both Verizon and AT&T LTE. However, you must be located where you can get some LTE signal before it can be amplified. Also, the device will not improve your 3G signal strength. My area uses Verizon LTE band 14, and I was able to increase from -102 dBm 1 asu to -81 dBm 59 asu. I could not adjust the amplifier to full gain because the inside and outside antennas aren't far enough apart, but it made a huge difference nonetheless.

It works but will not recognize 2g or 3g network and will only work in Edge 'E' network.

Depends on your card. When I had the verizon card I only got 3G. When I switched to a AT&T; nano card it had 4g

In theory, yes, but it was rather a PITA for me to get it to work as an extender on my network. It worked after much configuration though, so you should be able to extend the network of the TriFi network (just another Wifi network), just as if it were another router.

I would say yes, but please stop by a Verizon kiosk and verify that. I believe the sim card only allows access to the 4g.

Yes, although some international versions won't be supported with full 4G speeds.

No the network extender is proprietary for the Verizon network. You need to buy a different unit called a Microcell for AT&T phones.

Yes. We have 4g and we went from 2 bars to 5. Our first booster didn't work though, so if your phone doesn't connect, chances are it's a faulty tower.

From my experience, yes. I have two, installed at two different locations. The one does only 3G but the other one (6 months newer) boosts both 3G and LTE. I am not sure if it's about the original signal strength or what determines if it's 3G or LTE but both seem to boost data as well. Note this is signal strength booster so will not boost actual speeds.

No, it is not setup for a SIM or a 4g SIM. Most of Verizon's old 3g phones do not accept SIM cards

As I recall, its only 3g unless attched to another source for 4g support, so this could cost money. I think, beyond buying it, your other cost will be how much data you choose to use. I did get Verizon to come out and check my existing signal after a year.

I had no trouble setting up the unit with Verizon. They just need your cell number, address and a few other bits of info. The extender as worked fine for me.

I do not have a 3G plan with Verizon, which is my provider. I have only a basic service for my wife and I (each of us has one of the Brigade featurephones) which provides plenty of "air time" for phone calls, and several hundred texts per month. I don't have a "data" plan that involves the internet like a "smartphone" does. The phone does display signal strength bars for 3G as provided by Verizon, but I don't think I actually use it.

The extender needs a 5Ghz signal to extend. If you only have a 2.4ghz then you will be able to skip extending a 5Gz signal.
