weBoost Home MultiRoom vs Home Complete: Which One Do You Need?

Quick answer: Figure out your outside signal strength first. If it's moderate to strong and you need to cover a smaller space or a few rooms, the weBoost Home MultiRoom Signal Booster ($569.99) will do the job. If you need maximum coverage throughout your home, the weBoost Home Complete Signal Booster ($999.99) is the way to go.

Now here's the detail on both.

The Core Difference

Both boosters work the same way. An outside antenna captures signal, an amplifier strengthens it, and an inside antenna broadcasts it throughout your home. The difference comes down to amplifier power and cable quality.

That 7 dB gap in gain makes a bigger difference than you might expect. With weak outside signal, the weBoost Home Complete can deliver whole-house coverage where the MultiRoom would only cover a portion.

When the MultiRoom Is the Right Call

The weBoost Home MultiRoom is a solid choice when you have decent outside signal and don't need to blanket your entire home.

Good fit if:

• You have moderate to strong outside signal (3+ bars)
• You need to cover a smaller home or a few specific rooms
• You want the easiest possible installation
• You're fixing dead zones in part of your house, not everywhere

Real-world coverage:

• 5-bar outside signal: up to 5,000 sq ft inside
• 3-4 bars: up to 3,500 sq ft
• 1-2 bars: up to 1,000 sq ft (likely just a portion of your home)

The MultiRoom includes a flat cable that fits under a window, so you can avoid drilling through walls if you prefer. Most people finish installation in 1-2 hours.

When You Need the Home Complete

The Home Complete delivers the most coverage possible for whatever outside signal you have. If you need your whole house covered, this is the one.

Good fit if:

• You need maximum coverage throughout your home
• Your outside signal is weak (1-2 bars)
• You have a large home (5,000+ sq ft)
• Heavy construction is blocking signal (concrete, stucco, metal roof, Low-E glass)

Real-world coverage:

• 5-bar outside signal: up to 7,500 sq ft inside
• 3-4 bars: up to 4,000 sq ft
• 1-2 bars: up to 2,000 sq ft (potentially whole-house coverage)

The 72 dB gain is the strongest allowed under FCC regulations for residential cell phone boosters. Combined with the ultra-low-loss RG11 cables, you're getting maximum performance from whatever signal exists outside.

The Installation Difference

The MultiRoom is the more DIY-friendly of the two. It includes a flat cable you can run under a window, so you may not need to drill at all, and most people wrap up the whole thing in an hour or two.

The Home Complete takes a bit more effort. The RG11 cables are thicker and less flexible than RG6, which makes routing them through your home more work, and you'll have longer cable runs to manage (60 ft + 75 ft included).

If you're not particularly handy, or you'd rather not climb on the roof and deal with cable routing, the Home Complete is available with a professional installation option. It's not about whether you're rural or urban, it's about whether you want to do it yourself.

What About Carriers and 5G?

Both systems boost all major carriers. Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, US Cellular, and every MVNO using their networks. They support 4G LTE and 5G on the 700 MHz, 800 MHz, 1900 MHz, and AWS 1700/2100 MHz bands.

What they don't boost:

• 5G mmWave
• T-Mobile's 600 MHz band (used for some 5G coverage)

No consumer booster on the market supports these frequencies, and they're not allowed to under current regulations.

Both support multiple devices simultaneously, so your whole family can use the boosted signal at once.

The Honest Limitations

A booster amplifies existing signal, but it can't create signal from nothing.

If you have zero bars outside, neither of these will help. You'd need a different solution (Starlink, fixed wireless, or a network extender from your carrier).

If you have 1 bar outside, the Home Complete can potentially give you whole-house coverage (up to 2,000 sq ft). The MultiRoom would likely only cover a portion of your home in that situation.

Not sure what your outside signal looks like? Step outside, just beyond your home's walls, and check your signal. That's what the booster has to work with.

How We Help People Choose

When someone calls us, we start by asking about their outside signal strength. From there, the recommendation usually becomes pretty clear.

• If the MultiRoom will cover the space you need, it's a great option that's easier to install and costs less.

• If you need the most coverage possible for your outside signal, the Home Complete is the way to go. The extra gain and better cables make the differenc

Both come with a 90-day return policy and lifetime US-based support, so if it doesn't solve your problem, send it back.
