weBoost 5G Drive Reach OTR Install

In this video we give an overview of the weBoost 5G Drive Reach OTR components, compare them to the 4G Drive-X OTR system. We also show you, step by step, how to install the system into a 2007 Dodge Ram 2500. These steps should give you a good idea of what’s involved and should be fairly similar on the entire lineup of Ram Trucks. A timeline is listed below for those of you that are looking for specific parts of the video. If you have any questions or comments about this video, we'd love to hear them in the comments below.

Great thanks for sharing. I just bought the new Weboost and was planning to run the cable down the A frame into the engine bay and through the firewall. Your install is easier. Never new there was a vent behind the seats of the Ram.

Great video! I have a question for you. After installing your interior antenna by the head interior light, how was your reception? Asking because I seen a couple of videos stating that you have to keep your cellphone real close to the interior antenna in order to get the best cellphone reception?

Thanks for sharing. I'm seriously considering a WeBoost.

Hey thanks for the video. I've got an AT Habitat as well and I'm curious what type of rack do you have mounted to the side of it? And what kind of boxes are mounted to the rack? It looks great!

When is the test? Did it make a difference. I'm curious and waiting 😃

Did you have to register this with your cell phone provider in order for it to work?

when's the follow up video? was it worth it? needing some info and need to make a decision

Do you happen to know how long the cables are on the antenna as well as the interior antenna.

Hi there! Hoping you might be able to help with my Weboost? It works great but as you know, you can't go more than a few feet from the interior antenna or it will stop working. We use our Weboost mainly at our cabin. Do you know if it is possible to set up either a router or a repeater type system with the Weboost in order to get more distance from the interior antenna? Thank much for any info you can share. Rich W.

Your not supposed to put blue loctite on plastic its going to degrade the plastic and it makes that point a weak spot prone to failure

Very expensive for only 2 years of warranty
