I looked up the definition of router on google:

(row´ter) (n.) A router is a device that forwards data packets along networks. A router is connected to at least two networks, commonly two LANs or WANs or a LAN and its ISP's network. Routers are located at gateways, the places where two or more networks connect.
Routers use headers and forwarding tables to determine the best path for forwarding the packets, and they use protocols such as ICMP to communicate with each other and configure the best route between any two hosts.
Very little filtering of data is done through routers.:facepalm:


Perhaps now you can see why information is so difficult to come by.
 
We have 2 smart phones and a hotspot. A few years ago we purchased a Wilson Electronics booster. It came with the amp, cradle (inside antenna) and antenna. They aren't cheap. The reason for us is we have a weak tower signal at our dock on the lower Columbia River and according to reports from our friends who cruise the Inside passage it does give you "some" boosted coverage.

That one statement looks very innocuous but it quite critical to the experience you're having with an amp today.

How long ago, exactly, did you buy the amp or more importantly, what is the model number?

If it's a 3G amp, it's probably hurting your signal strength by putting the phone into it.
