Does Phone Signal Booster Work? by Kehl(op): 8:11pm On Mar 19, 2024
Hello

Please i have a challenge where i newly moved into... I barely get network inside the flat, it's so bad that even making calls is a big problem. However just outside my door, at the balcony, I have full 5g network. I've been wondering the best solution for this problem.

My little research made me learn about signal boosters. I don't know if they're reliable and if they'll work in my situation.

Please if you've used them or u have a different solution, please share.

I bought one. In deep rural back then. Never used it before I moved to the urban back. If you want a used one, I can sell it to you

Yes it does. The days of phone call at n50/min

Someone will make call of 1min 1sec and will have to cough out n100. Gen Z kids will not understand the pain in this.

Not to derail, those days, we used signal booster. We used antenna and other stuffs to improve signal strength and make your call center more competitive than the next trekkable one

Signal Boosters are illegal to use in Nigeria. NCC always warns against using them. You can be prosecuted if it's discovered you're using it.

Do not say what you do not know. How many people can afford 5G phones for example ?

Those stuffs don't work shït. Network is pretty bad in the market I am and I know about 10 people who have had it installed in their shops. So far they've all packed it up as it barely makes any difference, in fact it makes the service around it even worse.
Re: Does Phone Signal Booster Work? by annlopez:
Signal boosters can be a reliable solution for your problem. They amplify the signal from your balcony into your flat. I’ve used one which is 4g signal booster and it worked great. But now I am more into having a 5g signal booster. I have read that 5g will soon replace 4g because it full of advantages like speed upgrades and low latency. So you can read how long will 4g last https://www.uctel.co.uk/blog/when-will-4g-be-phased-out-in-the-uk-is-4g-still-relevant-today if u are interested.
