Will this booster help with 4G LTE on Sprint? I just got 4g LTE SPrint coverage where I live. Just curious...
161046
I don't think so. I have 3G coverage where I use my airave and most of the time I will just get 1x. I have wifi though.
161047
This device didn't help me either. So, I am not 100% sure if it's the Airave not working properly or if it is the phone itself.

The Airave never worked for me. Went through three of them, each going down after a while and shutting down my router at same time. Finally returned all to Sprint.

I am not sure on this either. We don't have that kind of coverage on our phones. It works great on our simple phones, though.

The Airvana only boosts the 3G signal. Realistically, when you are at home you would be better off linking to your WIFI signal vice a 4GLTE one. I have spotty coverage at home so the Airvana really helped boost the voice quality. The data link never was an issue using my WIFI signal. Hope this helps.

This booster did absolutely nothing for me. Never functioned, despite MONTHS of troubleshooting.DON'T BOTHER WASTING YOUR MONEY.

The booster only helps increase wifi internet access, not phone reception. Hope this helps.

Roaming has more to do with your carrier. If you get 4G on roaming only might need to check with your carrier. As for me I would get 1 bar of 4G in the Winter if I stood on the kitchen counter. When the leaves came I forget it. I know get 3-4 bars now with the leaves on the trees. Putting the base on the other side of a wall from your cell/MiFi will reduce signal. I am trying to find a wall mount for this ti assist me. I now get consistant 15-19mbps through it. Just a reminder, this is data only. It will not help with calls.

Straight from the Wilson website: "Does NOT amplify 4G, LTE, and AWS"http://www.wilsonamplifiers.com/wilson-dt-3g-desktop-60db-amplifier-kit-463105/

It works with any brand of phone / carrier as long at there is a signal. If you do not have a signal it will not give you one. I have used it with a 4 year old "dumb phone" to boost text in and out. My wife used it for data in and out on 3G last year from a campground that barely had a signal on SPRINT. Then 4G when she went with VERIZON and fast. A friend of ours was using it with VERIZON 2 years ago at the same campground. Used his old 3G phone as a wireless hotspot to connect to a computer. Do some research to make sure the connectors are right on the cradle / antenna / phone. There are different ones. Do your homework before you buy relative to the cables.

Sorry, not sure in particular. Being a LTE I would guess (but as I sent the phone back, the burned part of me would say, "Just give Boost customer service a call on that." And, then you would not want to deal with BOOST either). If you're just getting the phone, seemed good. If to deal with BOOST...run!

Thank you VERY MUCH...So let me see if I completely understand this:1) I buy an unlocked phone2) I take the card out of my sprint phone, and put it into the unlocked phone.3) the new unlocked phone WORKS.Is that correct?Are there services that will NOT work when I do things this way? For instance, this phone can browse the internet, and act as a modem. Do I lose those services (or others) if I buy the phone unlocked and use it on Sprint?Thank you again, I really appreciate your time.Dmitri

I have just spent time with Tmobile trying to get the 1520 set up on Tmobile's system in Michigan. They could not get to work on LTE. They could get it to work on 3G. But I have noticed that in operation it frequently has problems staying that mode. It seems to be missing the jokey band necessary for LTE. Disappointing to be sure but still a great phone/tablet.

No it will not work with Sprint 4G LTE. It only works with AT&T and US Cellular 4G LTE in the lower 700Mghz spectrum.

No, that is the only drawback... It only boosts 1x and 3g. In my case it didn't matter because I don't get 4g within 2 miles of my house. But I do get fast 3g speed with the booster

I have the booster that is for Verizon and it works with this antenna. Just make sure you get the correct booster. I called Wilson because I had questions also and it was the best thing I could have done. I would have bought the wrong booster and had to send it back and get the correct one. Just call Wilson and save some time.

Sorry...i don't have an answer for your question since i haven't used sprint in yeeear's. Do people still use and have sprint as their cell phone providers?

AT&T; 4G, yes. I have two of these in two different locations. One boosts LTE, one does not. Not sure why that is.

The speed depends on where you are. This Sim card will pick up 4G but from my experience only in limited locations. If 4G is not available it will pick up 3G.

The booster works well with the major cell providers ATT and Verizon. I have a constant bar and a half increase. We are happy with that increase. We will try other antenna directions now it is spring and the snow is gone.

Wilson Sleek 4G-A Signal Booster is for most carriers 3G but for 4G works with AT&T; & US Cellular 4G LTE [700A/800/1900mhz] frequency range. The Wilson Sleek 4G-V will work with most 3G but only Verizon 4G LTE signals.

It will work on your phone and it will boost everything EXCEPT 4g data. The 4G version of this is due out very soon and it will be called Mobile 4G (Model 460108). If you are in weak signal areas most of the time it will be only 3g anyhow, that being said I personally am going to wait to get the newer unit because I feel that when I can get 4G I rather have that boosted than have to rely on 3g as my only means of getting data. Use this information on which unit you plan on buying. If you are using this to boost phone calls 99.99% of the time then this unit will be fine. I plan on downloading data (my primary reason for getting this is weather downloads on the road) so it makes more sense for me to wait for the newer model. $399 Retail, now for sale for $349 preorder from Wilson (3-5 weeks delivery) http://www.wilsonamplifiers.com/wilson-mobile-4g-50-db-amplifier-kit-460108/
