Poor cell phone reception in camp. Existing booster in camp when I bought it, but doesn’t seem to be working. Looks dated. Anyone have any experience with boosters? Best ones to get?

The built in whole home ones work pretty well. I've used weboost before. I was going to put one in my new house, because apparently I live in the worst spot for Verizon service in the Houston area, but ended up with an LTE hotspot from Verizon.

I had to get an AT&T M-cell because I had poor cell reception at my house. M-cell plugged into my router.

I believe it is now obsolete, I threw mine away when it was losing connection. Now most phones have WiFi calling anyways. Same function as the M-cell.

Get two phones and broadcast one as hotspot. Use speedify.

I have the Weboost for my vehicle, and also one at my camp. I haven't had any trouble out of them.

Wilson makes what you’re looking for.

If it’s an old Wilson booster it might not have LTE capabilities.

The main thing is with boosters is you need good consistent signal at the place where the antenna is.

+1 on the Weboost. Stick the outdoor antenna as high as you can on a pole and point it towards the closest tower. If you can get any signal currently at your camp, the booster should help.

Agree with weboost, tried several different less expensive options, weboost is worth the price if you need cell service
