zBoost Cell Extender

• Step 1: find window
• Step 2: suction cup zBoost to window
• Step 3: plug in
• Step 4: use cell phone
• The set up could not possibly be any easier. No software, no configuration, nothing!
• 5x4 white box with a power cord and an antenna coming out of it isn't the best, but it can be hidden behind blinds
• You have to make sure the antenna is 10 feet away from the main unit, but it also has suction cups
• More bars immediately
• It just takes the signal you'd normally get outside and relays it inside using the antenna and the base unit in the window
• Had little to no dropped calls when i had tons before
• Easy to bring with you traveling
• Doesn't work for Nextel
• It is completely worth the $170 and you can also get a $300 one with an indoor and outdoor antenna that's supposed to work even better
