Internet booster?

You need a good external Omni antenna and a booster. there are several different brands, models and selling sources. I wont recommend any specific ones over others, they all work. You do need to be careful to match the frequencies of the devices to the frequencies of your carrier & band. ie: not all are compatible with Verizon 4G 700 band.
The only comment above that I disagree with is the one saying an antenna is not important. If you're in a fringe area with weak signal, a good external antenna coupled with a booster makes a significant difference vs booster only with no antenna.
I travel all over the west and have 3 different sets of antenna's and boosters that I test side by side in different areas, they make a huge difference and I'm rarely without a usable Verizon signal, except out in the extreme boonies.

I think that was me, kinda...
I was simply saying that adding a Wilson Trucker antenna to a Wilson Sleek will only give you a couple extra db of gain. Yes any extra db is better, any extra height is better... there is always going to be something better. I just meant that based on the fact that the Sleek is so cheap ($100-200) for 25db of gain, spending an additional about $50 is to get a couple more db is not in my mind very cost effective. Even with the 4G Sleek you are paying about $8 per db of benefit vs about $25 per db for the antenna.

I have had fantastic results with the mini mag antenna that it comes with on my roof and IMHO I do not think it is necessary to upgrade the antenna. I would say if the OP are going to get the Sleek (or something similar), just get the unit first and decide after using it for a while if you do need the upgraded antenna.
