USEFUL TO IMPROVE QUALITY OF INCOMING SIGNAL
We live in a fringe area and use Verizon 4G LTE for phone and internet. Verizon, when it's running right, is very good. Usually it is not, giving us "roaming" or one bar and uselessly slow, or just not there. This antenna system cleans up the signal-to-noise ratio which improves speed. It sometimes add a bar to strength but the company's c/s rep tells me that bar strength is not a reliable indicator, as it is not standardized across platforms. My results agree, counterintuitive as it seems. The system components appear to be good quality and the documentation is first rate. Do scan the QR code to "register" and let c/s know you are there.Now about the customer service...it's the absolute best I've experienced. You are talking/messaging with an actual tech person who speaks English, and has extensive product knowledge. And friendly.We use a Jetpack with Verizon. There are two small pop-out plugs in the lower edge of the device that can be pried out to reveal a pair of TS-9 plugs. The system provides a pair of pigtails that attach to adapters on the coax cable . The plugs are friction-fit, there is a note to that effect in the manual. It is important to relieve the strain on these in your final installation to avoid the coax cable putting pressure on them and pulling them out. I was able to put the adapters on the cables from the antenna and run the pigtails to the Jetpack to make a test rig to carry outside for readings. No need to carry the mount and cable with you...just watch the that the pigtails don't get pulled out in handling. I used the recommended speed test app by Ookla for monitoring. The tech even sent me a disturbingly recent sat view of my house with his recommended locations to test. The lightning protection kit (optional) is $99. I got two arrestors on Amazon for less than $40. One for each cable. All you'll need is some small wire to go from the fitting to the provided connector on the antenna mount, and some bare copper to go from the mount down to your ground rod. The mount is well painted so you will have to make some bare metal under a nut or bolt for good connection. Also, have a few inches of the bare wire extend up past the connection to the mount and file it to a point. The "lightning rod" is designed to bleed off charges that build up before they can attract the "Big One". If Mother Nature decides to send you a slap shot five-hole there is nothing you can do except not be nearby. This unit did not solve my primary problem, the lack of steady signal from Verizon, but it markedly improved what signal I get. My up/down numbers were great when we got signal and on balance we are better off for having this system. I recommend this system as a first step to get a better signal, as talking to Verizon doesn't seem to help much. As for Verizon, if you have tech problems, don't waste your time with their customer service...go right to Tech Services. Waveform's c/s are top notch, as previously stated. And read the manual FIRST, like they said.

A must for rural remote work
**Review of the Waveform 2x2 LTE Antenna**I recently installed the Waveform 2x2 LTE antenna in my camper, located in rural Minnesota, and I am thrilled with the results. Prior to this, my FirstNet internet speed averaged a frustratingly slow 2 Mbps. Now, with the antenna mounted on a 12-foot pole and positioned with a clear line of sight to a cell tower, my internet speed has surged to well above 30 Mbps.The improvement is nothing short of dramatic. Tasks that were once a struggle, such as streaming videos, joining virtual meetings, or even basic web browsing, are now smooth and hassle-free. The Waveform 2x2 LTE antenna has significantly boosted my signal strength and overall connectivity, transforming my internet experience.Installation was straightforward, and the antenna's robust build quality ensures it can withstand the elements in a rural setting. Though I don't live in my camper, I frequently use it for remote work, and this upgrade has been a game-changer. The reliable and fast internet connection it provides is essential for anyone needing to work remotely in a rural area.In conclusion, the Waveform 2x2 LTE antenna is a must-have for remote workers in rural locations. It has drastically enhanced my internet speed and reliability, making it a highly worthwhile investment.

Excellent reception
My wife works from home, all we have available is cellular internet. Before the antenna we were averaging 10-15mbps. She was having horrible connectivity issues and her Jabber phone would cut out. I found the Waveform antenna and in desperation to help bought it! It’s been a tremendous help, we’re consistently in the 50s and at times in the 90s. I’m sure the cellular company throttled us back as we were getting 120mbps when we first hooked it up. We’re completely satisfied with this antenna system!! It saved us a ton of headaches.The support division is extremely competent and very communicative!! They would text back within a few minutes and would check in periodically to see if we had questions or issues!!I would definitely recommend this antenna if you’re having connectivity issues with your cellular internet!!Nighthawk M6Asus router

FINALLY AN ANTENNA THAT ACTUALLY WORKS!!
I want to share my experience with you and maybe this will help you.... I've been dealing with very spotty service for years. Tall trees and hills blocked the signal to the tower that is 5.3 miles away. First I tried a a surecall fusion4home kit with a log periodic (people call it yagi) antenna. It kinda worked ok for calls, but internet suffered. So i tried to hook up a hotpot for internet, but I would get interference between the hotspot and the booster. My signal would drop all the time. So I scrapped that, and got a nighthawk m6 and connected the yagi antenna. Then I tried another panel antenna. The "yagi" was tough to get pointed correct and in storms it would fail. The non-mimo panel worked ok but spotty sometimes, and no-good for speed. Extremely frustrating. Best download speed I got was 3Mbs download .3mbs upload and latency of 3 seconds. That's with an antenna/hotspot. I was about to just accept it but I decided to try this MIMO antenna and WOW. What a difference. My download speeds now are 30mbs download and 6mbs upload. But most of all, the upload and latency is hugely improved. My internet responds so quickly now that I forget I'm on wireless. This antenna is the best I promise you if it solved my problems I'm sure it will help you. Even with CELL TOWER OVER 5 MILES AWAY, packed with trees and my internet is very stable and reliable. I'm so pleased with Waveform for building an antenna that works!!

This took our LTE modem from okay to brilliant
Our home is off grid. For several years we have relied on mobile internet from a tower approximately 6 nautical miles away from us. The mobile modem worked okay much of the time, but could be glitchy and slow at times. Download speeds were usually adequate, but upload speeds were poor at best.My wife and I were considering Starlink, however after some research we came across this 2x2 panel antenna and decided it was worth a try. The setup was very easy since I knew where the mobile tower is. The two coaxial cables from the antenna fit directly onto the two ports on the modem, without any of the included adapters being needed.The result was about a 3 fold increase in download speed and more than a 100 fold increase in upload! That is correct 100 fold increase in upload. Now our internet works very well pretty much all of the time (even in very poor weather).Having gone this route has saved us from having to go with more expensive satellite options that also use way more power (important for us for we are not on utility power).This product has worked fantastic for us so far. We’re so happy we spent the time to research what was out there before abandoning the mobile internet avenue for more expensive options.
