Where is the best place to put my zBoost External Antenna?
The zBoost signal antenna should be placed at the highest point in your house in order to “catch”
the strongest signal. This location could be in the attic or on the roof. The placement of the External
Antenna is very important. It is best to place this in an un-obstructed area. If you install it outside,
place it above the roof line. Or, this antenna can be placed in the area around your home that has
the greatest signal strength.
Note: if you install the External Antenna too close to the Base Unit, the system will shut down (red
light will appear). This is a normal condition for this scenario. It just means that you need to ensure
that you have proper isolation between the 2 antennas; otherwise, it will detect feedback or noise
and will automatically shut down.
My light is continually blinking
There are several reason that the zBoost light could be blinking. Please see the “Base Unit Light
Indicators” on page 11 for specific answers.
Does the zBoost work on all 3G data?
No, it only works on data that is on 1900 and 800 MHz frequency like iPhones, but not on
smartphones that use 3G on 2100 MHz frequencies.
