I want to install a cell signal booster/antenna but have read numerous threads about how the newer 4G boosters won't work with the Simplisafe base station.
Question: Will the boosters that claim to be compatible with 2G, 3G AND 4G work? This issue has been going on for numerous users for a couple of years now. Has ANYBODY at Simplisafe come up with a DEFINITIVE answer to this question yet???

I NEED to get a compatible cell signal booster.

I also live in an area with crappy cell signal. I have had a Samsung Cell Booster hooked to my broadband for years...it does NOT connect at 3G or 4G, only at 1x. I am not 100% certain about the latest model, but i acutally disconnected mine when I got the SS3 system w/Verizon card. It's still weak signal according to tech support, but it will dial out and the Samsung booster won't confuse it. I have 2 bars pretty much anywhere in the house.
Not good, but enough to dial out if WiFi goes down and a call needs to be placed.
Anyway, unless you get a VERY expensive and tech-installed Cell booster system w/outdoor antenna, you're pretty much wasting time in my opinion.
Good luck!
