Will this work with a myfi jetpack? I get a decent 4LTE signal on the jetpack (3-5 bars) but wifi breaks down between a wall and more than 40' away.

Not sure as not familiar with jetpack. I suggest you contact the mfg to see if it will work.

Dear Hmo,Thank you for asking.I'm sorry but TripMate will not work as a wifi repeater, it normally serves as an AP, regular router (Dynamic/Static IP/PPPoE) and bridge mode. If a WiFi repeater is needed, please search "HT-WR01" on Amazon product page.I hope you will find this helpful. We're happy to help if you need further assistance or have any questions. Thank you for your kind understanding.Best regards,HewittSunvalleytek Customer Care

1) I do NOT see they have taken the device to the WiFi certification org (no logo), that is about as close as you could get to "compatible to any device"2) However, I have it working with a iPhone 5, iPad 2, and a couple different lap tops.3) From a signal level, I was able to use going through no fewer than 6 walls and 30-40 feet

Here is my question? Does this work really well? I am having all kinds of issues w/ my wireless connection signal strenght says 100% but my bars fluctuate so I was thinking about purchasing this to see if this stablizes anything.

I bought one and the hawkings route showed no signal at all!!!!!!!you want to buy it from and try? let me know, cheapso i bought a hawkings extender dish HAO14SDP , working over 400 ft. though brick house, strength varies from 7-40 % all the time, must have router with signal strength to be able to point the antenna It will drive you nuts not knowing strength of signal, PC doesnt show extender router strength, shows that it is connected but can be at low level and not connect. hope this helps.glenn

WiFi is the second best option for the connection. Copper is the best. My set did the same but since I ran a Cat 5 cable and changed the network settings it hasn't dropped. My guess is the WiFi antenna is not as robust as it could be. If you can't run the cable a WiFi extender might improve the connection.

I use it with a laptop 2+ rooms away, and also use it with tablets. No problems with reception. I live on the 4th floor and get wifi reception from the ground level (although it's only 2 bars)

I do not believe it will work very well. Ceton web site do not recommend it. This device require a lot of bandwidth. If you have a short distance to travel it might work well. The more distance the signal has to travel and more walls it has to penetrant it will be worst, and anything device that connected on wi-fi will slow everything down on wi-fi. A wired connection provide the best solution and will not affect your wi-fi devices.

I have not had problems with wifi. Not the strongest radio but not terrible either. I have more than 10 of these and hadn't seen an issue.

I would suggest you return them and buy from a different vendor, I've had mix results with MK808b's from different vendors. I currently own 3 MK808b's and they all connect to my wifi and maintain connection with no issues, I returned a couple that would connect and disconnect randomly, the wifi signal would go up and down. Good luck to you.

Hi Melissa, The signal for that unit only transmits via the handheld that comes with it. As of right now they do not offer an outdoor unit that works via Wi-Fi. Only the indoor units have that capability. Let me know if this helps. Regards, Jesus

Depends on what your asking. If you can connect it straight to Verizon, like adding it onto your plan, I don't know. If your asking about general connection and if its possible, then yes. I use my hotspot to connect. I was going to purchase a jetpack from the Verizon store to be able to carry around a portable wifi, but where I needed to use it it wasn't going to get service. Hope that helps.

I just tried this with antennas from a dual-band router. I got a 20-25% drop in signal, but it still worked fine. It is important to note however that my desktop is a true desktop i.e. it is located on my desk's surface, and not the floor.

I ended up sending mine it. It absolutely would not connect to any wifi net. The support was fantastic, but it was returned for full refund at the company' s urging.

This antenna/booster is meant to increase your computer's ability to receive a distant Wi-Fi signal. If the issue in your case is that your computer is distant from the Jetpack, then this antenna could help. But if you're trying to improve the Jetpack's ability to receive cell signals from distant towers, this will do you no good. In that case, you should buy a Wilson Sleek (or similar) antenna/booster. For Verizon users I recommend the Sleek 4G-V, which handles all current Verizon internet signals--1x, 3G (EvDO) and 4G (LTE). AT&T users can get the similar Sleek 4G-A model.

Verizon does have devices that provide WiFi for up to 10 devices at once. This particular device will work with 5 devices at once. It's an older model than what Verizon is providing these days. I gave my Jetpack 4G LTE to my Mother as she only needs one that operates a few devices and I upgraded to the new Jetpack 4G LTE which is thicker and will allow you to charge an iPad, iPod, or smart phone on the device. The new Jetpack is thicker as it has a larger battery that lasts longer than the previous model (which is the one pictured with your question). I would recommend that you check with a cell phone provider (I have Sprint for my cell phone service as my son's company gets a discount and he's added me to his plan), but I do prefer Verizon for WiFi as I've never hit a dead zone using their devices -- Verizon has the best coverage and more 4G coverage than other cellular phone companies. I know that they also offer a plan where you pay for service for one month or pay for the amount of gigabytes you plan to use on a pay as you go plan (like the prepaid cell phone plans); however, you pay the full price for the MiFi (which is still cheaper than cell phones are with pay as you go). I am under contract with my MiFi as I use it at least weekly when I'm out and about in town as I carry an iPad rather than my laptop. My mother is actually using the old Jetpack on a pay as you go plan as she only travels a couple of times per year and doesn't usually take her iPad with her when she goes out in town. The other cell phone carriers also have MiFi's, but the only reason I went with Verizon was better national and international coverage, and their monthly plan provides more gigabytes per month at less price than do the other carriers. I hope this helps as I don't want to steer you wrong. I don't order cell phone plans or MiFi plans over the internet, but I go into the provider's store. I do check their websites to see if they have a device that I'm interested in knowing more about, but buy in person.

Line of sight is required. You will also want to make sure there is no interference with any wifi you may have. I have an Apple Airport Express that has 2 channels. 2.4 GHz and 5GHz. Lately I have had an issue with the 5GHz channel interfering. You want to keep your wifi on the double digits and not triple digits channels. I am currently using channel 44 and it is working fine.
