T-Mobile now carries Cel-Fi LTE booster?
 
The firmware updates for the LTE signal booster will happen without any user interaction.

So it is OTA? that's what confused me cause from what I've read by other people they was updating the firmware manually as far as where I'm not sure?

I apologize. It seems I may be wrong. I used to have a HSPA booster and that was updated OTA without me ever having to do anything. But after doing a Google search, looks like the lte version can perhaps be updated from your computer. Does the signal booster have a USB port?

Yeah the mini USB to usb from what there saying it's some company called Seahawk I think? And the software for Mac doesn't work even though its up unless its a wrong site?

Not sure about the actual procedure so I don't wanna mislead you. But I was just saying that it appears that you can in fact update the software yourself
