AT&T Cisco 3G MicroCell Wireless Network Extender requires GPS signal to activate and operate. However, MicroCell may not be able to acquire and lock onto GPS signal in the middle of a house or building. Gilsson High Performance GPS Antenna will allow one to place GPS antenna near a window to receive and boost incoming GPS signal for use with AT&T 3G MicroCell Wireless Network Extender.* Please note - The Microcell model# DPH 154 DOES NOT have an external GPS antenna port, therefore the antenna cannot be used.

Works great
Easy to install, the cable actually comes in two parts - a generic antenna with cable, and an additional cable which gives the extra distance and switches adapter type so it fits in the MicroCell antenna port. Like many others, I didn't have the MicroCell right next to a window, and really didn't want it there (so I'd have to periodically move it around to get GPS lock). With the extender plugged in, it's now neatly tucked away out of sight and works great.

Good
Gave this to my IT to install to help boost cell phone reception and signal. They told me what to order.

It does excatly what it is supposed to do.
My home is in an area that has very poor cell reception. My AT&T MicroCell doesn't help much because trees limit access to satellites. The best I could get was two bars. This antenna extender completely solved my reception problems. I now get 5 bars, continuously clear reception, and no dropped calls (unless the person I'm talking to has poor reception). Mount it where it will have maximum unobstructed ability to connect with satellites and you won't be disappointed

AT&T should include this WITH the MicroCell 3G tower
This little gadget saved my sanity. On the phone with AT&T for hours and hours, they couldn't figure out why, after 2 years of successfully using the MicroCell tower, it suddenly could not find the GPS signal. Ordered this antenna, arrived two days later, plugged it into the tower, placed the antenna next to the window (inside). Our location is low, almost in the creek bottom, lots and lots of trees. I was UNABLE to get even a one-bar phone signal without the MicroCell. It took about three or four hours for the antenna to capture the GPS. Now I have five bars and it's working perfectly!

It did the job
Had poor cell reception in my house. Got the ATT micro cell, but it would only work by the window. This allowed me to remote the location to the spot I wanted it to be. No more reception problems. Easy hook up and set up.

No more dropped signal
The microcell would drop the signal 6-8 times per day until we got the microcell antenna. It has worked about 99% of the time except for maybe some weather related dropped signal issues.
