Bingfu 4G LTE Antenna Mini Soft Whip TS9 (2-Pack) Compatible with Verizon AT&T T-Mobile Sprint 4G LTE Mobile Hotspot MiFi Router Cellular Broadband Modem USB Modem Dongle Adapter

I was very surprised, these antennas actually worked. I bought theses antennas for my work Verizon jetpack, and I am actually getting reception in areas that I had no service. Quilty seems good and they arrived quickly. Very Pleased with this purchase. Quick fix for low reception areas.

These antennae aren’t super powerful or flashy, but they definitely help increase the signal strength and quality. I used them for a dash mounted hotspot on a cross country trip (7 Dec. 2018 through 16 Dec. 2018) and when I’d stop for gas I would take a few minutes to test the speeds without them against with the antenna attached. I often had better results with the antenna attached. I took a few trips between Eugene Oregon and Florence Oregon via highway 126. These antenna enabled me to pick up service during most of the drive except for a mile on the eastern side of the tunnel. They are flexible enough to fit in a Subaru Forestor’s center console with the lid closed. When not in use I kept them in a laptop bag and they did not get damaged from bends or strange positioning. I definitely recommend these for traveling. They gave me just enough of a boost that I remained connected for ~95% of my journey. I live in a high population city with solid coverage by the main 4 carriers. The antenna don’t seem to make much of a difference, but I didn’t expect them to do as much at home as on the road and in more rural areas.

These antennas are terrible! They’re extremely tight, and you can’t even tell if they’re connected properly. There was no improvement in signal. With my first unit, the male piece where the antenna goes popped off when I removed it for the night. I bought a new one and used it for a few months, but then I lost connection and had to deal with AT&T’s customer service, which was no help. I spent so much time troubleshooting my unit. Eventually, I got a replacement under warranty, and when I inserted the SIM, it worked perfectly. The antennas break the male connector on the hotspot, and they are the little antennas inside the modem. So, don't waste your money on these terrible antenna extensions!

If there's any improved signal reception, it's not detectible in MiFi performance. Maybe improvement can be detected by test equipment, but our signal strength remained at 2 bars with/without the external antenna. I kept them because we use the MiFi in our fifth wheel and this antenna might help in some place we travel, but it doesn't give any improved reception at home.

So I bought two sets of antennas because I currently have two verizon jetpacks;one is a very old version.second is a newer 8800. These antenna work a little bit better on the newer version. So they do work. And in all fairness I do live pretty far from a tower...So I'm kinda happy, but it's Not mind-blowing!!. Signal increase for example, I usually get one bar sometimes 2 bars for a few seconds. So by adding the antenna(s). The second bar lasts about 45% longer and holds for about 30 seconds longer but it still didn't bring the signal strength to 3 bars like i was hoping... I would probably still would buy them again cuz They are a slight improvement. but not mind blowing

Short: Using the jet pack with the antenna ports butted up against a SINGLE pane window using only ONE of the TS9 antennas gave me an extra 20 MBPS. Before the added antenna, signals was 12 - 25 MBPS. Now it will fluctuate between 20 - 50. Long: Placement of the jet pack is crucial in relation to where the tower signal is coming from. Dual pane windows will reduce signal a lot and so will metal roofs. I placed mine on a little platform between the main door and storm door about 5 feet up from the threshold. The platform is mounted on the main door with the jetpack sitting on top of it. When I close the door, the JetPack antenna ports butt up against the storm door window. I tried adding both of the new TS9 antennas but it didn't make much difference at first. I tried different antenna positions and slightly tilting the jetpack in many directions, but not much happening. Then.... I thought lets just try one TS9 added leaving the other side open. Yup, worked much better. Then I swapped it to the other side and even got better signal. So it worked out for me. I spent several days playing around with it and would imagine this for most cases because everyone's situation is different. Good luck, hope this helps someone else.

Such a great add-on accessory for my netgear hotspot

Good

ordered by accident. wrong adapter, my mistake. However its exactly as described with lightning speed shipping. Thank you amazon :-)

This item reduced the apparent signal strength and resulted in lower data speeds for the Huawei LTE E8372 Turbo Stick.
