MR1100 with Cell Signal Booster?

Can I use a cell signal booster to amplify an MR1100 hotspot? 

My intention is to purchase a commercial cell signal booster to drive an MR1100 to boost a dull signal in a rural area.  I'd then like to bridge the MR1100 into a swich to feed multiple access points.

  • I hope this helps, I currently have a weBoost Connect 4G 470103 with the MR1100 in my house, I'm using the MR1100 teathered to my ASUS GT5300 router and all works great. My only complaint is I usually hold at 15Mbs all day but if I reboot my MR1100 sometimes I can do 55Mbs for a short 1 or 2 hours but I'm happy over all.
