I have satellite Internet and zero bars on my Verizon phone, will this fix my situation?

I don't know about satellite, but I have DSL and I get a full signal up to about 50 feet sway.Works great out to about 100 yards.

As I understand it, this thing works as a satellite but it's in your house not in space. So, brings the signal closer to your phone. Works in my place. Used to have to hold my phone at an exact angle with my head cocked just right to get a sometimes signal. With this thing no problem with gettings signal. Works well.

Verizon says it doesn't work with Satellite internet connections, something about too much latency in the signal? I've used several of these devices on different high speed connections with no problems, but all connections were via cable internet. The device needs a lot of information both through the web and also a GPS fix from where you place the unit. Must be by a window and have a continuous GPS fix. Other than that, it's a great device! Allows full bars on your phone where there were no bars before!

Yes, If you hook the box up to the internet it will broadcast 3G and you will have full use of your cellphone.

Not sure. I have Verizon. But, I have a programmable remote which enabled me to control the bar. You may want to check with the iLive website and ask a service rep.

Nope, but as another individual stated, if you have the resources you can convert your cell phone into a hotspot to get the connectivity you want. Actually had to do this when I moved -- the connectivity in the hotel was garbage and wasn't secured. Using my cell worked out well, but cost me a bit more per month.

No need for internet. I went to Verizon and specifically asked them to turn it off. If they don't turn it off on their end then yes, I believe you are subject to accidental data charges. Check with your carrier; I use Verizon

I do not have a 3G plan with Verizon, which is my provider. I have only a basic service for my wife and I (each of us has one of the Brigade featurephones) which provides plenty of "air time" for phone calls, and several hundred texts per month. I don't have a "data" plan that involves the internet like a "smartphone" does. The phone does display signal strength bars for 3G as provided by Verizon, but I don't think I actually use it.

It will if your phone is working properly. If you are one of the many Verizon customers who experienced problems because of the last android update where your phone is discharging super fast or not fully charging then you will notice that your phone will gradually discharge with this adapter while trying to watch a movie. The adapter I got is not good quality. Thought you should know that. If the planets are aligned just right and you have your phone positioned just right with the adapter just right, you might be able to watch something for a good 20 minutes before you lose connection.

Not sure if it will work for Verizon customers but it will give you all your bars and it plugs into your Internet cable works great with at& t sevice

They supplied me with one after months of arguing with them about dropping my phone calls. I did a factory reset, new phone, then new sim card and nothing worked. I should be receiving this from Verizon today and hopefully it solves my issues. I had no issue with my service the first year I had the phone then they believe they lost a contract with a tower which made my signal drop down.

It will only increase your internet signal connection so if your internet was slow because of weak signal it may help but if your deivce/internet it self is slow it will remain the same

Yes only wifi will work. The data services and phone internet work through the carrier if you got a plan that provides data.

Gps won't work if system is not working. So either you have lost your internet service, or router..... Or you.lost your conection to verizon. My advice would be to call verizon wireless customer service.

Probably not, it is just a switch to select one input line or the other. So if you had cable and antenna,you could switch the input between the two sources. Your Verizon box probably has some type of de-scrambler for the signal from some if not all of the channels.

As long as you do not need to load software, you should be okay. As long as you can get to your internet provider via the web it should work. My parents have access to their Verizon emails and web services with no issues.

Yes, as I am using it now with Verizon. I get from 1 to 2 bars improvement in strength.

No, you shouldn't need that. First thing I would suggest is to confirm you are set to "away" mode under settings when away from your home network. If the problem is more complex than that, I would recommend setting up a call with customer service, as the fix takes several steps. The customer service rep is fantastic and will get it working.

No, the xyboard has wifi as well. It would work just fine without Verizon service. Just connect to Wi-Fi at home or wherever.

yes and no. it will boost your ability to talk. as for data your phone will say you have good service but the "connection" or ability to get and receive data doesn't improve. i was told i needed a better antenna haven't hooked it up yet. it seems it just boost the signal but doesn't improve service as far as data.
