BEFORE You Begin
If you can find a place in your home that gets at least one bar of 3G, 4G, LTE signal, the revolutionary Cel-Fi DUO Smart Signal Booster system may bring you smoother video and surfing, and improved voice coverage throughout your home.
Cel-Fi DUO Smart Signal Booster is a true plug-and-play system that doesn’t require the installation of antennas or cables.
Step 1
Find the location with the best coverage:
The first step in setting up your Cel-Fi DUO Smart Signal is to find the location in your home or office with the best network signal. Use your phone to identify the area with
most bars of signal. Typically, the best service will be near a window in the highest floor of your home or office. Make sure a 3G, 4G, LTE icon is displayed on your handset.
Step 2
Plug in the Network Unit:
Plug the Network Unit into an easily accessible outlet near the area with the strongest 3G, 4G, LTE signal. (Note: the power supplies in your kit are identical.)
Make sure that at least one bar is displayed on the signal strength indicator on the front of the Network Unit. If you do not see at least one bar, try a different location.

Step 4
Place the Coverage Unit:
Place the Coverage Unit as far away as possible from the Network Unit or where you need coverage the most, making sure that you have enough distance between the two units. After several minutes, the numeric display will stop cycling.

If your device is set up properly, the green icons will appear on
the display as seen above. It is possible to place the Coverage Unit too close or too far from the Network Unit. If this happens, a red icon will illuminate indicating that you need to move the Coverage Unit either closer to, or farther away from the
Network Unit (see below).
