Why do I need to create distance between the booster and the antenna?

Antennas connected to a booster create spheres of signal. When these spheres 
overlap, a condition called oscillation occurs. Oscillation can be thought of as noise, 
which causes the booster to scale down it’s power or shut down to prevent damage. 
The best way to keep these spheres of signal from overlapping is to maximize 
separation between the inside and outside antennas.

Troubleshooting

 

FIXING BLINKING OR SOLID RED ISSUES

This section is only applicable if the booster is red or blinking red and you are not 

experiencing the desired signal boost.

Unplug the Booster’s power supply.

Relocate the inside and outside antenna further from each other. The objective 
is to increase the separation distance between them, so that they will not 
create this feedback condition discussed before.

Plug power supply back in.

Monitor the indicator light on your booster. If, after a few seconds of ‘power 
on’, a solid or blinking red light appears, repeat steps 1 through 3. Increase the 
separation distance until the condition is corrected and/or desired coverage 
area is achieved. Note: Horizontal separation of the two antennas typically 
requires a shorter separation distance than perpendicular separation. 

 If you are having any difficulties while testing or installing your booster, contact 
our weBoost Customer Support team for assistance (866.294.1660).
