As any cellular user can attest, the performance of your phone, PDA, or mobile broadband device is very dependent upon the signal available from your carrier. Wireless carriers have greatly expanded their coverage over the past few years, but there are still many folks that have trouble getting a strong signal, whether it's because of trees, construction, mountains, interference, or simply distance from the tower. A directly-connected antenna can be very helpful with boosting voice and/or data signal, but if you have a device that doesn't have an antenna port (like the uber-popular MiFi, Apple's iPhone, any of the Blackberry PDAs, or many other phones) or if you want to boost the signal to multiple devices at once, an antenna is no longer the best option.
For users who need to improve signal to multiple devices or to a device that doesn't have an antenna port, a wireless repeater is the answer! Wireless repeaters use two antennas and an amplifier to boost cellular signal completely wirelessly - no direct connection to the device is necessary, and the boosted signal can provide a gain to multiple devices at once! In partnership with Wilson Electronics, one of the leading manufacturers of signal boosting antennas, amplifiers, and repeaters, 5Gstore is giving away two complete wireless repeater kits!
Wilson's SignalBoost DT and SignalBoost MobilePro are two of the most popular all-in-one repeater kits, and YOU can score one of them absolutely free by entering 5Gstore's contest! Read more about the two repeaters below and email your entry to contest@5gstore.com by midnight on Friday, October 23 for your chance to win! Make sure to read the full contest details at the bottom of this page before submitting your entry.
What is the Wilson SignalBoost DT? The SignalBoost DT is a great solution for boosting multiple phones and/or data cards at home or the office and includes everything you need for a stationary setup: amplifier, antenna, mounting kit, 50 feet of cable and wireless antenna. The receiving antenna is a directional antenna, meaning you must know (or be willing to find out via research and/or trial and error) the general direction of the cellular tower serving you in order to properly install the antenna and obtain the best gain possible - this makes the DT an impractical solution for travelers but excellent for home or office use. If you aren't comfortable doing a little extra work to make install the directional receiving antenna (remember, if it's not pointed properly it won't do anything!), this setup is not for you, but the results are definitely worth the effort! You can read the full specs of the DT here.
What is the Wilson SignalBoost Mobile Pro? The SignalBoost MP is the most portable wireless signal boosting solution for the wirelessly boosting your cell signal, requiring no permanent installation. The kit includes everything you need to boost the signal to your phone and/or data card on the road or at home: AC & DC adapters, USB cable (for power), dash & suction mounts, pouch and 12" magnetic mount external antenna. The Mobile Pro is ideal for users who do NOT have the option of permanently mounting any equipment (dorm-dwellers, folks using rental cars, etc). It is not the most powerful option and the range is rather limited - your device must be very close to the amplifier to benefit from the boosted signal - but it can be very effective and is incredibly convenient! You can read the full specs of the SignalBoost Mobile Pro here.
