some update. I purchased mymobilebooster and paid using installment. So far even though source signal quite weak, I am satisfied with what I get considering the area that I am living.

Source signal (outdoor) - Band 3, -100 dpm
Boosted indoor - getting 4G (band 3), -80 to 90 dpm. DL speed around 14Mbs.

Only problem is signal stability during online gaming causing lag from time to time. Later I am trying to relocate the outdoor antenna see if I can get better coverage.

booster page refer here. they have multiple products depend on what you need. I bought the rm1985 set. Bit pricey but I dont really have much choice. After antenna relocation, I'm getting a stable connection now. I even purchased digi mobile broadband for wifi use and terminate streamyx for good. Really satisfied so far.

Installation is straight forward. Plug in cables and turn on power supply. They will assist you as necessary through whatssap.

The only thing that is difficult for some people or lady is to install the outdoor antenna on pole, indoor antenna and to route the cables on walls (hammer/drill etc). I just DIY it, or you may ask others for help too.

Guy, have a question here, let Say I stay at a residential area and plan to install this booster thing. Will my neighbour around me benefit and take up the traffic of the network from my booster as well? Or can I set it to be non-public that others can’t connect to??

Yes everyone around you will gain benefit but I honestly think it is only minor. Reason being, the indoor antenna booster for my case is actually quite weak. I placed it in the living room. Full bar in the living room but in the bedroom, the signal is not so strong (2 bars and sometimes drop to H or 3G). So, I do not think neighbours beyond your walls will gain much. Of course this will also depend on your incoming signal strength and booster anyway, but I can only speak on my condition.

So far so good. Even during rain, the green light on the device gone (meaning quality drop), but the 4G still there, and speed still maintained at least over 10mb. Been playing online games with no lag too.

Ok, I am using Digi and having bad signal in my house, barely achieve 1 bar or E. Outside seems ok, with 4G LTE available. Might planning to change to Celcom or Maxis but the plan doesnt seem to be as good as Digi. Both service providers signal is only slightly better anyway.

I am planning to purchase mobile signal booster

Now, after looking online, I've seen multiple models serving for specifically frequency band 1800 or 2600. I know from online reading that 1800 will offer higher coverage, but slower speed compared to 2600.

Anyone know if I can get 4G (with decent speed 3mbs) by boosting 1800Mhz range? Or do I need 2600Mhz?

Hi, Great option! i also on planned to buy Cellular Booster and i need some shares about it. Need the boost results info. Now i was thinking and make some research about the frequencies of band that i received. Here in my situations i used 2sim umobile & Digi, yes after made some scanning the Umobile near me serving Only U900 & L1800. I'm using "Net Monitor Lite" from google apps, maybe this apps will help.

I have a similar problem, i was thinking to do long range wireless bridge however i have to erect two towers 40m which is quite expensive. Now im thinling about using this booster for unifi air.

Here i need some opinions about doing this:

If im not mistaken, unifi air is working as the concept with mobile signal? No? If it yes, then i can proceed to buy booster antenna, position it direstly to the tower and connect to unifi air.

Is it possible to do this?
