How to Choose the Right Antennas for Your Booster
Outside Antennas:
- Yagi Directional Antenna: This antenna is more powerful because it focuses on sending and receiving signals in one direction. It works best when there are no major obstacles blocking its path to the cell tower. It's not ideal for areas with large obstructions like hills or buildings.
- Omni Antenna: This antenna sends and receives in all directions, so it's better for hilly areas or if you need to support multiple carriers with towers in different directions. It doesn’t need to be aimed, but it also isn’t as strong as the Yagi antenna.
- High Gain LPDA Antenna: Perfect for areas with very weak signals, this antenna significantly boosts signal strength. It needs a clear line of sight to the cell tower and requires a sturdy mount because of its size.
Inside Antennas:
- Panel Antenna: Can be placed on walls or ceilings and directs the signal towards a specific area. This antenna is great for homes and tall ceilings in buildings.
- Standard Dome Antenna: Designed to mounted on the ceiling, this antenna spreads the signal evenly throughout the area. It's best suited for drop ceilings or spaces where cables can be run above the ceiling.
- Ultra-Thin Dome Antenna: This slim antenna also mounts to the ceiling, but is much is less noticeable. It's much stronger than a standard dome antenna, making it a great choice for places where both looks and signal strength are important.
Tips for Choosing:
- Choose Omni Antennas for general coverage with no aiming required.
- Choose Directional Antennas (Yagi or LPDA) when you can point directly at a cell tower and need stronger signal and more inside coverage.
- Interior Size Considerations: One antenna per 750-1,500 sq ft in homes, or 1,500-2,500 sq ft in open spaces like offices and warehouses.

Product Overview
Product Overview
The weBoost 470166R Certified Refurbished Home Studio Signal Booster is a great entry-level signal booster for small areas and single rooms. It features an inside unit that is an amplifier and inside antenna combined and is ideal for boosting signal throughout the area where it is located, like a home office, studio apartment, or cubicle. It includes a powerful directional outside antenna to ensure that you get the maximum boosting from the Home Studio.
The Home Studio is not for someone who is looking to cover the entire building with boosted signal. If you're looking to cover more space than the Home Studio can provide, then the weBoost Home MultiRoom (Certified Refurbished) is going to be a great option.
Please Note: This refurbished version of the weBoost Home Studio has been certified by the manufacturer to be in like-new condition and comes with all of the components that a brand new Home Studio does. The only major difference between the two is that the refurbished model only has a 1-year equipment warranty, while the new model has a 2-year equipment warranty.
Why the weBoost Home Studio?
- The most affordable solution for boosting signal in a small area.
- Works wirelessly. No physical connection to your phone required.
- Supports multiple phones and all carriers at the same time.
- Everything you need is included in the kit.
- Fewer dropped calls

Your purchase is covered by our 90-day money-back guarantee, so you can try it risk-free, and our friendly, US-based technical support team is standing by to assist with anything you need. Your equipment is also covered by a 1-year manufacturer warranty, for extra peace of mind.
Recommended For
The Home Studio is a great solution for anyone who is looking for an affordable solution to boost signal in a small area and is able to mount an antenna outside, on the roof of the building.
How it Works
The weBoost Home Studio system uses a yagi directional outside antenna mounted to a pole on the roof of the building. That antenna receives the cell signal from nearby towers and sends over a cable to the Home Studio inside unit. The unit boosts the received signal and then broadcasts it to the area of your home or office where you need better reception.
The entire process also works in reverse, so you get a strong and reliable connection back to your carrier.
Unlike the weBoost Home Room, the Home Studio does NOT include a flat cable to run under a window, though it does include two lengths of RG6 cable with a barrel connector. If you need a flat cable, you can purchase that separately.
Estimated Inside Coverage
The strength of your existing outside signal, measured in the location where you plan to mount the outside antenna, has a direct impact on the amount of inside coverage you'll get from a signal booster. The table below shows how much coverage you may get depending on your outside signal strength:
| Existing Outside Signal Strength | Estimated Inside Coverage |
|---|---|
| Strong (5 Bars) | Up to 1,500 sq ft |
| Medium (3-4 Bars) | Up to 1,000 sq ft |
| Weak (1-2 Bars) | Up to 150 sq ft |
| None (0 Bars) | No Coverage |
Please Note: It is important to remember that there are many factors that impact the size of the inside coverage area, so actual results may vary from these estimates.
Will this Work for my Phone and Carrier?
The weBoost Home Studio has been designed to work with all cell phones and all carriers in the United States, Canada and Mexico, as well as carriers from some other countries in Latin America, South America and Australia.
