I live in a basement apartment, use Verizon's 3G network on my iPhone 4s. My calls are often dropped, will this help?

I bought this product for my Verizon MiFi as it was compatible to plug into. I don't think it would work for your iPhone 4s.

I really don't know anything about the iPhone's or what type of connections they have. Sorry.

I have not, but I can tell you it's not doing the job as it's supposed to. It still drops calls in my house. Advice: if you haven't bought it yet, don't .

Not sure on that level I would have to do a test app with that, My phone is a 4g Mytouch and my net is quick when loading I use myself solavei. My wife has a blu dash 3.5 and she is with solavei as well her phone is 3G and still pretty quick with her's as well. It's T-mobile signal so it's pretty much the same frequency receiving I would assume. But, we are happy and satisfied. www.pay4lesswireless.com they distribute the service as well.. go check them out.

Yes, your phone will go down if you lose power. Get a backup power supply so that your router can continue to work for long enough to call 911. Or keep your cell phone charged and use it.

Thank you all very much for the feedback. I've had my previous phone for going on 6 years now actually, and all calls were placed from my house, where I've made countless calls without a single instance of a dropped call before this new phone. Perhaps I did get a lemon. I'll look into exchanging it (unwisely I purchased it elsewhere). I'm back to using my ancient phone in the meantime. :) Thanks again for the feedback!

I bought this phone used and it has never dropped a call. I believe that if people are dropping a lot of calls it might have something to do with the area they are in. I switched to this phone from the iphone 5 whiched dropped just about every phone call. And as far as freezing up..mine does very rarely, but no more than any other Android phone. Thats an issue most droids have, but the phone is great especially for the price.

Yes it will improve your voice calls it may or may not improve your Internet connection. It works as a repeater it takes the signal from the Cell Tower and boosts it if you place the antenna as high as possible and face it towards the nearest cell tower you will see a massive increase in signal.

I have an iphone 4 and when i share the connection(function like a modem) works perfectly but i'm not with verizon, i hope this can help you.

It sounds like you are missing a piece of equipment. Normally the antenna will attach to an amplifier from Wilson. One goes outside and the other antenna goes inside. The problem you may find if you are using it for internet connection is the frequency of your provider. Verizon 4G LTE is in the upper 700Mhz range while normal phones are 900-1800 range and this antenna is not suited for 700. The joy of different connectors for no good reason will cause a few problems. Verizon makes a router with outdoor antenna that works pretty well but again different connectors, (SMA). I ended up with two systems, one for my phone pointing to a cell tower with backup 3g coverage and my 4G system pointing another direction to a distant 4G tower but it works now. Try to find your towers first then work from there.

I have not seen this and I have a layer on the slope of my roof as well as the ceiling. Our verizon service is fine via iPhones.

This is what I think, it doesn't matter what you use but I noticed mine wasn't hardly working until recently I set it to automatic in its settings and bam! Now it says 4G and the signal is better. I didn't know this and was about to get rid of this thing along with some other junk electronics but was just going through the settings and when I set it to automatic it picked up the signal where I was and its good to go now. I think you just have to enter the password from the device and it should work with anything I think. I have Verizon so obviously it works. Hope this helps.

I have an android device, so i cant be 100% sure. Two things: iphones use sim of size nano, not micro or regular. Get the right one. Make sure your phone works on tmobile frequencies for 4g data transmission , otherwise you'll get only 3g or just 2g and then internet and apps will be too slow.

Yes. The app is about $10. On 3g looks ok, 4g would be better but the most important thing is to have a good signal.

I used it on a T-Mobile network through Straight Talk and only got 3G with the service they provided, service is different depending on the phone and provider.

If the cell phone signal is weak it works slower and maps load slower. I have not had any big problems with performance due to weak cell phone signal.

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.

It won't boost the Verizon signal, only your wifi signal in your home. If you are using a feature such as wifi calling, where your phone uses the internet to boost your signal, then this can help extend the area where you get good wifi so it could help in that way, but it does not boost the cell reception itself. So if you are using wifi calling and your wifi signal is dropping out, this can help, but if you are talking about your regular cell and 3g/4g, this will not help. Feel free to follow up if you need any more help :-)
