It must be the I Phone, my iphone will have 0-1 bars and I am standing 5 feet away from this thing. Once the phone goes into search mode it finds it and all works great but for some reason it keeps wanting to lock onto the 1 bar signal. Anyone know if there is some settings I can change in the I phone? All other phones have 5 bars all the time.

Was unable to get any reception in the house unless I hung my head out a window, now I have 3 bars in every room including the basement. I have a tri-level of 3000 square feet.

In the right setting this is a great product. It solved all problems of cell phone reception inside the house. BUT, antenna placement is crucial for it to work properly. Mine ended up in the attic. Then you have to position the box in the house in an optimal location for it to work as advertised. Spending time to do that correctly is the key to making it function well. But it DOES work. Considering what it does, I think the price is a bit high. Otherwise no complaints.
