Say hello to the Waveform Griddy, a game-changer for those struggling with weak internet signals in rural areas. This ultra-wideband, high-gain parabolic antenna is designed to boost your 4G LTE, 5G NR, and WiFi connections, offering a range of up to 40 km and a gain of up to +26 dBi.

One user shared their experience living in an area with limited internet options. After mounting the Griddy on a 35-foot tower, they achieved full signal on all LTE bands offered by the nearest tower, which is 4.5 miles away with trees obstructing the line of sight. The user praised the antenna's superior performance compared to other models they had tried.

Another rural resident reported a significant increase in speed and stability after connecting the Griddy to their Netgear Nighthawk LTE Router. Speeds jumped from 5-15 MBPS download and .5-1 MBPS upload to consistently over 100 MBPS download and 15 MBPS upload.

However, not all users experienced the same success. One user found that the Griddy did not improve their AT&T Band 5 (850 MHz) signal and only marginally improved Band 66 (1700 MHz). They concluded that their existing LPDA antenna was more effective for their specific location, which lacked line of sight to the tower.

Assembly and quality were also highlighted by users. The antenna is easy to assemble with clear instructions, and the hardware is high quality with stainless steel fasteners. However, some users noted that the metal grid is fragile and can break if screws are overtightened.

Overall, the Waveform Griddy is highly recommended for those in rural areas needing better internet connectivity. Its performance can vary based on location and line of sight conditions, but for many, it has proven to be a reliable solution for boosting signal strength and speed.
