Mobile Broadband/DataCard Solution for Wireless USB Modems

Monday, March 15th, 2010

A wireless USB modem is designed to receive a Cellular signal and convert that signal into data the computer uses to access the internet. The speed at which a Wireless Broadband card (also known as a USB modem / Mobil Broadband or Aircard) operates is totally dependent on the carriers’ signal. Each carrier tries to provide a good usable signal, but unfortunately many obstacles exist that the carrier cannot overcome: valleys & hills, cement or metal buildings and
most importantly TREES!  These obstacles block or hinder the normally adequate signal which results in very slow or sporadic internet service.

Slow access in a 3G service area can be remedied with a Cellular Booster or Repeater kit.  A Repeater may be all that is needed to resume 3G speed. Repeater Kits consist of three components:

1) an outside/external antenna

2) an amplifier/repeater

3) an internal antenna that is coupled to the Wireless USB card or MiFi       

Solution: Welcome the Wilson Signalboost ! http://www.repeaterstore.com/products/repeaterkits/wilson/signalboost.html

This amplifier kit was originally designed to operate in a vehicle, but with the correct antennas, will work perfectly attached to a USB Broadband modem card in a home environment.

The kit below provides a great solution for a quick home installation or where the external antenna is mounted on a glass window. Cost is affordable at $213.

811210 Signalboost amp with internal patch antenna $169
301103 External 12″ antenna $23
859940 Home Office Kit with AC adapter $21

A more permanent installation using the same SignalBoost amplifier is listed below. This kit uses a permanent external antenna mounted on the roof of a home or building. Cost $272.

811210 Signalboost amp with internal patch antenna $169
301202 External building antenna  $65
951125 20ft RG58 cable from external antenna to amp $21
859903 AC power supply $17

This last kit can be used in a vehicle, although a separate vehicle external antenna is required. Also, a standard Home Repeater Kit starting at $599 would  provide consistent voice calls as well as a stronger and faster USB Data connection.

Pictured here, the new SignalBoost Pro is a dual-band repeater which works with all carriers (except Nextel). It plugs into a USB port, which makes it exceptionally portable. It’s ideal for a small office environment. Wilson are also releasing an in-car version, the 801241, which likewise uses a USB port.

The SignalBoost Pro comes with a high-gain antenna. More technical specifications will be available very soon. It is expected to be released in the 2nd quarter of 2008 and we are looking forward to featuring it here at RepeaterStore.com.

 

3 New Wilson Kits – 801212, 801213, SignalBoost 801214

Tuesday, November 13th, 2007

Wilson have just released three new in-car Wilson kits: two based on the wireless Wilson 801201 Amplifiers, and one based on the direct connect Wilson SignalBoost 801201. Take advantage of their new low pricing and our free shipping offer for a great deal.

Wilson SignalBoost 801214 Direct Connect Kit with Cradle

The new Wilson SignalBoost 801214 Kit includes the standard Wilson SignalBoost 801201 packaged with a Wilson 301103 Magnetic Mount Antenna and Wilson 301146 Phone Cradle. The SignalBoost 801214 is intended for use as an in-car direct connect unit that patches to your phone through the phone cradle.

Wilson 801212 In-Car Wireless Kit

The Wilson 801212 Kit includes the 801201 Vehicle Wireless Amplifier along with a Wilson 301103 Magnetic Mount Antenna for the exterior of the vehicle and a low profile antenna for rebroadcasting signal inside. The kit also includes a velcro patch for direct-connect operation.

Wilson 801213 In-Car Wireless Kit with Cradle

The Wilson 801213 Kit is exactly the same as the Wilson 801212 Kit, except it replaces the in-vehicle low-profile antenna with a phone cradle. This kit will only work when the phone is sitting in the included cradle, and is more powerful and expensive than the SignalBoost 801214 Kit but does not include the universal velcro adapter.
