is this a booster it self ? does it work in a basment?

This is only an antenna. The booster is separate and the antenna connects to it. It is always best to have an antenna above ground. This antenna is made for a truck, but will workwith devices, such as Verizon's Home Phone Connect box, in a home. You may have to get an adapterfor the connection to the box.

No. It's designed to work with a booster. Be sure you order the correct booster for your provider and system configuration. It's easy to order the wrong one. (Verizon, ATT, Sprint, etc...and 3G, 4G, LTE, etc. ) it's got to match what you are receiving. As long as the antenna is outside and your interior antenna is in the basement it should work. I would recommend getting a directional antenna for outside and a good booster, coupled with their Dual Band wall mount antenna. That's what I have and it takes my 1/2 bar AT&T; up to 4 bars 4G LTE in my office.

Remember, we're working with radio waves being sent through the atmosphere, and pretty much line-of-sight from a cell tower. The signal amplifier (the booster) is amplifying the signal intercepted by the antenna and sends it to the pad where the phone is to be placed. You'll have to trust L. P.'s experience working in a basement. If it works for him, it should work for you. The antenna must be outside, and as high up as you can reach with your cable for maximum effect.

The signal booster is made for outdoor antennas. I don't know if it matters which antenna you have. I use mine on my old rooftop antenna, it works for me.

No - this one is the bare bones of the bunch. There is another Wilson on the market (Amazon) that, if I am not mistaken, is for the iphone 3G and 4G networks.You may need to go with an actual booster kit. cost more but if you need the signal power, it may be the way to go. Watch the "fine print" it will state which carriers they do not do well on.

I just made my own mounting bracket, and mounted the antenna to the camper ladder. I didn't want to drill any holes in my RV roof until I knew it worked. I just ran the antenna lead thru the door for a temporary use. I was shocked how well the Wilson Electronics booster worked. Works best if you can set your cell phone on the interior antenna, and use an earphone. I use the Plantronics voyager. I was camping at Cape Disappointment near Ilwaco Washington. Zero bars. With the Wilson booster, I was at 5 bars. All true.

It is 3 in 1 but it does not come with the booster. You will not be disappointed with the product!!!

No. This booster is secured only by the seat belt of your car. It fits very nicely in the seats in my vehicle and does not move around at all.

It didn't work for me at all (1 inside, 2 outside). Let me emphasize AT ALL. I ended up returning the unit and getting one sold by my cell phone company that gave me 4 bars inside as well as for a short distance outside (3 living levels, one booster).

Yes. Add that with the booster, you better not be holding it close to your ear or fine crystal. :-)

Hi: I use the booster in my motorhome on the beach with a 100 foot cliff next to me that stops cell signals. The phone works great but data is marginal.I use a 110 v adapter. hope this helps, Tom

Don't see why not a preamp is a booster i use it in all different setups i use by itself or linked in my pedal board with great results

it comes with a wired (powered) booster however it does not connect to the receiver. I connected mine to a switch 12V supply in the back of the RV.

I did get this thing long time ago and it came without the manual. To tell you the truth there's nothing you'd have to read about this booster; it doesn't boost anything. My signal strength is exactly the same with it or without it. Save yourself some money.

This booster should work with any service. I've set it up jus like the directions say and it does seem to help with Internet. I thought it worked for making calls. It doesn't though. So if you have wifi, I wouldn't buy it.

the cradle comes with a number of sides that are removable, I would give it a try. This booster works really well.

I have a life proof case protecting my phone. The booster still works with a case. The booster should be installed as directed. The boosters are to be installed directly to the phones battery compartment back, closest to the internal antennae.
