I got a weBoost Drive 4G-X OTR and it worked great with a very low sig 1x and boosted up to 4 to full bars of 4G. Worked the same as the old one provided by the BLM for us camp hosts in Idaho. So we bought one for us as we travel. (We also have a Hughes Gen 5 Mobile satellite unit when at a place to set it up.) Now have moved to Eugene OR and had 1-2 bars of 4G without it but when I turn it on I still get about 1-2 bars of 4G.
Is it normal for it to boost a very low sig up but not a low already 4G sig.
I'm getting about -110 sig strength both with and without it.
Even at 1-2 bars of 4G speed, I get 3.5 Meg download speed at testmy.net
So it workes and still happy but just wondering.
I have the 4G-X RV (same unit but only 50db gain) at our house where I get 2 bars and -115db signal level the weboost will get my 80db or 50db signal level depending on which channel it gets. So my experience is that it will boost signals below 100ish db. Now if you have sprint, it may not some of the bands, that's a sprint issue.
