How does a wifi transciever placed inside a Pringles can act as a wifi signal booster. I saw this trick on Mr robot TV series. Do WiFi routers emit less power than GSM or LTE. I know for :
GSM - 2W (33dbm)
LTE - 200mW (23dbm)

As PlasmaHH says, it doesn't boost the total power - it can't, it's a passive device. Instead it makes the antenna much more directional. Signal behind or to the side will be much weaker. Usually you'll use them in pairs to make a link between two buildings.
Very similar principles to the directional reflectors in flashlights or car headlights.
