I bought one at the beginning our our three month trip. I would absolutely buy it again.
I have an ATT based WiFi puck and two Verizon iPhone 8’s.
To answer your question, I can give you a firm maybe.
There are many factors besides signal strength. Many “Unlimited” plans aren’t really unlimited; they will throttle you at certain data levels or cell tower traffic so strength isn’t always the challenge. Where I’m at now, I was seeing 15-20 mbs data rates then it slowed down until evening. It happened almost daily.
So I bought the OTR.com unlimited ATT puck. No throttling or caps or contract, $60/mo.
Back to the Weboost. It ALWAYS has improved data speed so far even when I have four bars. Where it REALLY shines is when you have a poor, weak slow connection.
I have several times had speeds so slow Facebook wouldn’t load. Setup the Weboost and get 5-10 MBs or better. Fast enough for streaming HD.
Totally repeatable. Plug it in and your good, unplug it and it’s .5 MBs.
I would totally buy again.
