Booster set up

Just unboxed a new cell booster, plugged it in, earthnet and antenna…… what else?  All I have is flashing white light next to “power.”

What kind of cellular booster? Are you referring to AT&T's Cell Booster, which is not a cellular booster but a femtocell, or an actual cellular booster, which AT&T doesn't offer. If it is AT&T's Cell Booster, then read my Cell Booster Tech Guide, the link is in my sig line.

I'll move this post to the Cell Booster Forum.

Earthnet is a satellite internet provider. Cell Booster will not work with it. You need a land based internet service: cable, DSL, fiber.

@rjniles  Nice to see you back around! It's been a long time.

Good catch. I mis-read that as "ethernet" so I thought the OP was referring to the cable.

@Cwebby88  If you actually meant Earthnet, as @rjniles  deduced, then you will have issues connecting as the Cell Booster is meant for land-based internet (DSL, cable, or fiber). It does work with StarLink, at least for a lot of folks, but "regular" satellite or wireless services will be problematic. And, if you do get connected but develop issues, AT&T can't and won't help you because satellite/wireless is not supported.
