The WideAnt2-X™ by WirEng® is a true MIMO ±45° MIMO (45° clockwise and 45° counter-clockwise wave polarizations), fully enclosed, all-weather, dual antenna for outdoor/pole/mast installations. The WideAnt2-X™ is fully enclosed and all-weather resistant, and is ideal for your MOFI MOFI4500-4GXeLTE-SIM2 because it captures and transmits waves in two different polarization modes, as per MIMO-devices specifications. The WideAnt2-X™ is also effective for Aux/Diversity devices. This set, made for enhancing the MOFI MOFI4500-4GXeLTE-SIM2 signal strength and data throughput, includes the WideAnt2-X™ and 30 feet of WRG400 ultra-low loss dual coaxial cable and adapters for direct connection to the MOFI MOFI4500-4GXeLTE-SIM2. Industrial-strength stainless steel Single-to-Dual antenna pole mount adapter included (for best results, install as high as possible). The WideAnt2-X™ are made one by one with highly skilled craftsmanship and include a one-year warranty period.

Actually works
I don't write reviews on amazon but given how much money and a PITA rural internet is for anyone looking for an antenna/solution you should try this first. I have tried parabolic, cheap yagi's you see on amazon, Wilson and I have even paid for an antenna from a custom shop and different carriers 4GAS, NetBuddy. I don't know why this setup works best but according to my MOFI4500 I went from -114~-118 signal to -100 quality. My speed from 'speedofme' went from 8/1 mbps to 54/18 mbps. I'm in a valley and I don't have a line of sight to the tower and the tower is about 1.2 miles away.

Not worth the money especially if you are in fringe areas.
Like the quality of the build. Don't like the performance. I was able to get slightly better RSRP and RSRQ on ATT B12 but zero improvement in internet connectivity. Was using 2 - 8dBi Yagi's, 1 V-POL, 1 H-POL, that cost $25 ea with 30' of RG-225 cable and SMA connectors to my Netgear LB-1120 modem. Was able to get -105 -101dB and maybe 1-2Mb data rate. Still 1-2 MB with -99 to -100dB.Instructions say to mount to 1.25" pole but the 2 sets of included mounting brackets were for @2" minimum pole. Had to get 1-1/4 in U clamps from local hardware store and drill out the 1-1/4" mounting holes to fit.So, cannot return because of the mods. Stuck with $400 antennas that do nothing. Cannot wait until I get my Anritsu SiteMaster back and can see what the true gain of the low bands are. Likely no more than the $25 Yagi.Should have gone with the much cheaper and much higher gain Log Periodic dual polarized antenna.

I did a TON of antenna research
We recently left the city for a more rural country life and internet was a major issue as I work from home and video conference often to clients all over the world. I need reliable internet. I looked at every option from DSL, to satellite, to LTE. Once I learned about this company I dug pretty deep and talked to their sales support team. I was convinced to at least try it. I paired it with the Netgear nighthawk M1 modem. First I ran tests without the antennas connected outside my home in the same position I would mount the antennas and saw speeds from 5-10mbs on the DN and 5-7 on the UP. Then I connected the antennas and ran some more speed tests. I then saw 45-75mbs on the DN and 25-30 UP. I didn't even dial in the antennas. I highly recommend these! They are pricey but they get the job done.

Well worth the cost
All I can say is these yagi's might be expensive but they work. Installed them today at my camper which had no signal at all. Pointed them In the direction of the tower which has no line of sight and a hill in the way. After several tests I'm getting 20 download and about 2 up. Well worth the money.Update- has never dropped below 20 download and most of the time I'm over 50. They work!

Great improvement
I live in the Texas hill country where the internet options are very limited. I switch to the mobile network internet in an attempt to get better connectivity. I was able to get a 10% improvement in thoughput after trying a few antennas. The biggest problem I had was stability. The bandwidth and troughput does not matter if the connection is not consistant. This wireng antenna have provided the consistancy I needed to telework and meet my family internet requirements hands down. I wish they had the X-4 kit avalable when I purchase this one. I live very far from the nearest tower with 4G LTE cababilities and even though this antenna has drastically improved my signal. I am still having issues maintaining the 4G aggregate active.

Nope
Did not work at all. No increase in signal strength even with a direct line of sight to several different towers. I was within 500 ft or less. The paddle LTE antennas that I got with my MoFi worked better. Did several speed tests at three different towers, the ping averaged between 65-90 down load topped out at 29.05 mps and upload topped out at 10.56 with this set of antenna. The paddle omni directional antennas averaged 60 mps upload and 35 download with a ping average of 30. This product is not worth the money at all.

Good MOFI antenna. Very directional, take your time
Boosted our signal strength quite a bit. Made it possible to leave Hughes net.

Well worth the money
Boosted my speed from 15 megs to 30-50 megs worth the money
