“On apprend parfois plus d'une défaite que d'une victoire” — José Raúl Capablanca
Good morning
I ordered it today so I can’t say how well it works.
But as contrary to what @Saphorin says
- We keep our subscription
- No SIM to buy (it is included in the Booster Toolkit which is free)
- No Mobile subscription to order additionally
- No data traffic fees
- And the icing on the cake: The new Internet Box Plus is offered free of charge if you don’t have one!
It’s worth a try anyway if this product is available to you at your address (even if only for the internet box plus)
Indeed Internet booster activated this morning, bonus in download +30% passage in download from 30Mb/s to 41-42 Mb/s and 100% in upload from 10Mb/s to 20 Mb/s. The strength of the LTE signal is at -100dB, I haven’t found a place with better reception. Completely convincing result. On the other hand, switching from the Internet Box plus to the Internet box 2 made me lose 5Mb/s on ATM synchronization, I was at 41Mb/s before and I fell to a little more than 36Mb/s, upload the same.
We will continue the tests and validate the real benefit and effectiveness of the use of this new device; but purely technically it’s not bad.
A little feedback.
The Internet-Booster really brings a plus in terms of throughput; but this is not constant and can vary significantly during the day, depending on the weather, in short on many parameters.
The additional bandwidth seems limited in download to between 15-20 Mb/s (3G?) and 5-10 Mb/s in upload. This is not related to the 3G/4G signal reception level. It’s a bit frustrating.
Good for those who really have a very poor landline (< 15Mb/s) this technology will bring you a real plus, beyond that the gain in navigation/email use will be anecdotal; on the other hand when downloading and uploading (e.g. Cloud backup) there is no photo.
@Anonym since switching to Internet Box 2 I have lost 5 Mb/s download speed, can you restore my initial speed (44 Mb/s)? THANKS.
Good morning,
this message to SWISSCOM staff to share my personal experience following the transition from Internet Box plus to Internet box 2 as part of the transition from my Vivo Case M subscription to inOne.
I suffered a loss of ATM synchronization which was 40Mb/s on the Plus box and now dropped to 35Mb/s with box 2. On the Plus box the connection was perfectly stable, I would therefore like to recover my previous speed. At the time the technical team had made a change to my connection profile in order to reach 40 Mb/s, this change would have to be reapplied to my inOne profile.
THANKS

I just installed the Internet booster; but it does not connect to the mobile network. Neither 3G nor 4G.
Is this linked to the activation date of my migration on inOne which is planned for tomorrow?
Good morning. I have exactly the same problem, it doesn’t connect to 4G (and yet there is 4G at my home)
The light flashes red, and the leaflet says this means “Connection Unable to Connect”
on my profile, I have this:
Hello @ph_chappuis,
Have you managed to connect your Internet-Booster since Wednesday? Have you already done a reset? You have a small “reset” hole on the back of the device, simply press there for a second. Then both LEDs will flash white, then the Booster will restart. Can you also try moving the Booster to another window? Thank you in advance for your feedback.
Good day
Hello @NathalieSI
Thank you for your response.
I tried these solutions, and unfortunately no improvement.
As for windows, I don’t have a lot of choice, the apartment is small and the 3 windows face the same side.
With my smartphone I don’t see any difference in 4G reception (it oscillates between 2 and 3 sticks, out of 4)
Good day
Hello @ph_chappuis,
Thank you for these details. I have forwarded them to our specialists so that they can contact you personally.
Beautiful day
