Wideband Directional Antenna 700-2700 MHz,11 dBi Yagi High Gain 3G/4G/ LTE/Wi-Fi Universal Fixed Mount Directional Antenna for Wilson Cellphone Amplifier/Cellular Signalbooster

This worked perfect for my situation. I had a trail camera that died within 3 days because of constantly going from weak 1 bar signal to no signal. I really just needed atleast 1 bar constant. After installing this it has solved my problem.

These antennas were priced very well compared to other similar items on Amazon and perform just as well. The build quickly is not the best and they don’t feel like they would stand up to a stray baseball or direct exposure the the elements. However, under the eaves should be fine and they have given a very good boost to the signal on the property where it was needed. I bought two and have them configured for MIMO. I modified the mount so that I could mount them on a single wall mount pole. So far I’m happy with them and know that I can cheaply replace one as needed.

The antenna itself is actually quite well designed. The cable, however, seems to be unreliable and it's either a hit or a miss. In my case it was a miss. I struggled for several minutes to get a reading out of my VNA. When it finally did work, both S11 and radiation pattern looked good. But it only did so for a few minutes before it went dead again.I ordered a replacement to see if I have better luck this time. If you have the budget, I recommend going for something of better quality and skipping this.Rant: Why are all these antennas designed with a crappy cable coming out of the enclosure? It would have been much simpler to use a watertight bulkhead RF connector instead. I have yet to see a strain relief on these that was actually water tight. I usually end up adding another layer of heat shrink on top.

My MoFi sitting on desk with Rabbit ears had a better signal than when plugged into this antenna on top of a 12 foot pole. I rotated through a full 360 degrees very slowly and could see improvement when perpendicular to the cell site (as expected with YAGI) but ultimately sent the unit back as the rabbit ears indoors got a better signal.The unit feels very light and flimsy. Even at $35 I don't think it's worth the money.

I set up 2 of these in a 2x2 MIMO format. That new set up doubled my download speed from around 30 Mbps to around 60 on an AT&T cellular network with a Netgear hotspot with 2 external antenna ports. More interestingly, the upload speed went up 10X. Note, the native antenna setup inside the hotspot is 4x4 MIMO, but I have an extreme directionality to my needs as I know the one tower I am aiming for. So directional Yagi 2x2 was better than 4x4 non-directional. With 10x on the upload.

It’s just what I wanted

Please note that the older Wilson systems use a standard coax cable...This one has a N-Female connector which you will have to purchase an adapter to fit your standard coax fitting.I didnt notice this when I purchased this antenna, I simply can't understand why they have to keep switching to all these different connectors.My 4-year-old Wilson has a standard coax cable so when they say it fits a Wilson antenna, I just assumed it had a standard coax cable fitting.I really had no idea what a N-Female fitting was!Well, I do now, and I have had to spend an additional $8 to get a N Male to F Female Antenna Adapter.I hope this works out!I will probably raise my rating if this antenna actually boosts my cell reception.

Added this to my camera system and it really helped with the signal
