Product Description
Wilson Dual Band (DB) Pro is one of Wilson's highest gain (62dB) Dual-Band (800 & 1900 MHz) Cell Phone Signal Boosters. Designed for use in homes and offices, the booster kit significantly improves the performance and signal strength of any cellular device on any network (except iDEN/Nextel) experiencing weak signals inside buildings. You'll experience fewer dropped calls, faster data rates, and clearer reception. The DB Pro supports multiple phones and data devices to be used simultaneously, and is easy to install. The primary cause of dropped calls is low signal output power from the cell phone to the cell tower, which limits the phone's ability to communicate with the tower. A typical cell phone provides merely 200 milliwatts of output power. To address this problem, the booster provides up to an impressive 2500 milliwatts of output power. In addition to the power increase from the booster, the included external omni-directional antenna will also significantly increase the phone's output power. Using state-of-the-art technology, the Wilson DB Pro Kit strengthens your cell phone reception to give you premium coverage inside the building even when you're in remote areas with a weak signal. Once installed, the booster kit will amplify the signals of multiple cell phones and data cards inside the building, allowing cell phone users to enjoy excellent reception and data connection simultaneously. You'll experience fewer dropped calls, clearer call quality, and improved data rates--even with 3G technologies.

Great product worth the price
By Bellyhorse
My mobile carrier is Verizon (can you hear me now) who boasts of the largest network. Of course I live in a pretty dead zone for just about every carrier. I sometimes had 1 bar but not enough to make a call or send a text without being plastered against one particular window. The network extender from Verizon didn't work with my internet provider so I had to find another solution. At first we had the antenna in the attic with the wire run to the downstairs (temporary because it was freezing outside and unable to mount outside) but the unit would go into protect mode (orange) meaning oscillation. The first warm day we installed the antenna outside on the garage roof and ran the wire through the basement to the first floor. We actually now can make a call from any room in the house. Before I even purchased this I called Wilson who explained that oscillation will be worst with the omni directional antenna which you would need at least 50 feet of distance in a straight line away from the antenna and the inside antenna. With the Yagi you only have to be away 20 feet between both antennas. I am glad I got the Yagi because in a 3 story house (counting the basement) with the Yagi in the attic and 8 foot ceilings I had to have the indoor antenna on the floor in the basement in order to prevent oscillation. My advice would be to get the Yagi antenna if you don't want the hassle of repositioning distance between the two antennas and remember that the 50 or 20 feet of distance between is a straight line measurement. You can run 50 feet of wire up and over, down and under, but it's not how much wire you use it's a straight line distance between the two which is just easier with a Yagi. If I had bought the omni directional antenna I know it would have been much harder to get 50 feet of distance. As far as Wilson goes, the rep was very helpful with all my questions and after I received the product I didn't have to call back just re-routing. Wilson is top of the line as far as anything antenna is involved.

Better than I anticipated. What a wonderful purchase!
By Kevin
I have been researching and delaying this purchase for a couple years now, not knowing if it would help our cell reception in our house. And the price of it. A lot of money for something that may not help! Anyway, we have terrible reception, one to MAYBE two bars of 1X service in our home or no bars at all. -105dBm or worse in the test mode. (If you want to learn more about dBm and cell phone test mode, go to [...]. Did much of my research on their site) Even on the roof of the house the reception was poor, so I didn't know if this booster would do any good. You couldn't carry a phone conversation in the house without the call dropping or you sprinting out of the house hoping the call wouldn't fail. Usually failed anyway. We have no land line and use Verizon's internet service with a MIFI modem device. So, poor cell reception, poor internet service! Our land line carrier doesn't offer DSL in our area and who knows when they might. Our Verizon MIFI device has been up for renewal for several months, but I didn't want to lock this in for two more years if DSL was coming to the area soon.Long story short I said screw it and ordered the Wilson Electronics 841263 kit. I know the company name and actually own a couple of their other vehicle antennas. I attached the outside directional antenna to the side of the house with a nine foot piece of 1 and half inch pipe, so it was above the roof line 5 to 6 foot. Ran the wire (which is nothing more than tv antenna coax cable RG6) to the basement, mounted the booster in the basement and ran the wire from the booster to the room above and set the internal antenna on a shelf roughly 6 foot off the floor.What a surprise, turned it on, powered up all the cell phones and modem, had 5 bars in most of the house! Not just 5 bars, but 5 bars of 3G! The best reception has been -68dBm and consistently in the -75dBm to -85dBm range, (-50dBm is the best, above -100dBm is basically no service). We now have excellent service in the house. Even the internet works great now. Not DSL fast, but running in the .5 meg speed which is more than double before, when it worked. It has been up for a month or so now and have noticed weather effecting it, dropping reception to the 3 to 4 bars on dreary, overcast days, but still pretty good reception.If your cell service is poor, but have some service, this is a great device. I highly recommend it. Keep in mind that it only supports 3G. You need a different booster for 4G. Verizon 3G works in the 800MHz range and their 4G works in the 700MHz. Hope this helps in your decision making.

Go with the Yagi!
By Bits n Brambles
I live in a marginal coverage area and either tether or use a 5 spot for internet. Every time the weather was bad I found myself missing calls and not able to connect to the internet. I put off ordering this for over a year with hopes of better coverage when LTE launched. I should not have waited.It would have been difficult for me to mount and omni-directional antenna far enough away from the inside panel antenna so I went with the yagi. I have the yagi mounted in a temp location about 15 feet from the inside antenna and I have no osculation issues.Prior to the installation I had 2 bars outside and spotty 1 or 2 bars inside. Now I have 5 bars in the same room as the panel antenna and a solid 2 bars throughout the rest of the house. It is important to note that I do not even have the yagi permanently mounted, it is on the side of my porch. Once the weather is better and I can get it higher I am sure coverage will be even better.Pros:*Setup for me was under 5 minutes. (Will take longer to do a permanent mount)*Great signal, even with the signal drops to no bars outside I still can get 2 to 3 bars with the boosterCons:*A 1.5" to 2" diameter pipe is require to mount the yagi antenna, not a big deal but it would have been good to know before I ordered so I could have planed for it.*A lot of newer phones do not have an external antenna jack. This makes aiming the antenna much easier. To get around this I just went online and mapped the closes tower to my house out and aimed with a compass.Summary:I wish I would have bought this a year ago! Since installing this, I have not missed a call and my data throughput is much faster.
