Cel-Fi Wave App and Pairing
1
Download the "Cel-Fi Wave" app to your phone
cel-fi.com/software
or tablet from or directly from
the iOS App Store or Google Play.
Ideally you'll need Internet connectivity when setting
up the GO X, though it will also work offline.
2
Open the app while keeping your phone within
4 feet of the GO X to start pairing. This may take a
few minutes, the app will say "searching," "syncing
data," and finally "gathering data."
3
Register your device if prompted to do so.
4
Check that your operator is shown in the bottom
left of the "Dashboard" screen.
If it isn't, go to "Settings" and then "Operator" to change it. Changing carriers takes a few
minutes - don't turn off your booster or move your phone away during the process.
(Note: the carrier that the amplifier is currently boosting will not be listed in the "Operator"
dropdown. For example if your GO X is boosting Verizon it will list AT&T and T-Mobile as options).
5
Update the software for the Cel-Fi if the app prompts you to do so (this may take 10 to
20 minutes and requires a data connection).
Troubleshooting Wave App Pairing:
• Note: only one device (your phone or tablet) can connect to the Cel-Fi GO X at a time.
• If the Wave app is unable to connect to your device, first try force-closing the application.
• In Android, this is done by going to your phone's Settings, choosing the "Apps"
option, finding the Wave app, and then choosing the "Force Stop" option.
• For iOS, you can read here about how to force-close apps:
• If force closing the app doesn't help then restart your phone and power cycle the unit by
unplugging by the power adapter.

Understand How The Go X Works
The GO X "Searches" For Signal
Unlike other boosters, the GO X doesn't amplify the entire frequency spectrum. Instead, it
searches for and then amplifies the best signal available from the carrier.
At any given time, the GO X can amplify up to two frequencies transmited by your carrier.
In the Wave mobile app, you can watch in the "Advanced" tab as it scans the frequencies on
different bands to find the best signal to amplify.
Anytime you power-cycle the GO X or disconnect the outdoor antenna cable, it will restart
scanning to find the best signal.
Anytime you unplug the cable from the outdoor antenna, power cycle the GO X by
unplugging its power. The GO X starts scanning as soon as you unplug the outdoor antenna
cable. To make sure it scans all frequencies, restart the unit after reconnecting the cable.

Activity Lights

A small light on the GO X flashes to indicate the current status.
Solid Green:
The GO X has found the best band is amplifying.
Blinking Green:
The GO X is scanning for networks to boost.
Blinking Red:
The unit is in an error condition. Check the app for more information.
Solid Red:
If the status light remains red, the device has a hardware issue. Call us for a
replacement.

Boot-up Sequence

On first being plugged in, the GO X activity light will start solid red, then flash red, then
move on to blinking green as it starts scanning the cellular frequency bands.
