This item had clearly been opened and handled before it was shipped to me. The seals on both ends of the wireless extender box (not the shipping carton, but the product box inside) were broken. The accessories inside were not packed like you would expect when getting something new. They were in a beaten up ziplock bag. It appeared to me that the contents of the box had been opened and handled a fair amount before they were shipped to me.
Despite all these warning signs I followed the directions to see if the extender would work with my phone. The first two or three times I turned my phone off and on the green light did blink indicating that it recognized my phone. I then hooked up the exterior antenna, but the extender never again recognized the phone.
After fooling with this for about an hour with no luck I gave up and called for a return merchandise number. The product and the condition it was in when I received it were both very disappointing.

Wondering if anyone has tried with an Iphone signal. In my house I get a good AT&T signal for my Motorola phone but my Iphone doesn’t do well at all. Need some help

The first one arrived broken, the second WOULD turn on, but did nothing for reception for my iPhone…So, too bad, I wasted my money. Don’t make the same mistake.

As simple as I can put it, this product does exactly as advertised. I went from 1 to 5 bars anywhere inside my steel roofed home. I normally don’t do reviews but I was bowled over by this product.

Product works as described. However, what the buyer is not told is that you are required to have a huge antenna and run upwards of 20 feet of tv cable to get this thing to work. The antenna and the base unit cannot be close together therefore to get this product working must run cable through your house. I guess if you don’t mind that then this is a good product. If you want cable running through your house then stay away. Amazon really needs to inform its customers of this fact.
