No Indoor Mobile Signal

CMCMANN — Tue, 08 Oct 2024 07:23:23 GMT

Me and my wife just moved to Plymouth, into a 2 bed semi-detached at PL7, the house was old so we had the insulation redone but now the Three signal inside isn't working. I spoke to customer service at Three who told me I should have excellent coverage, BUT there is none inside and I am at my wits end, I work for myself and have to go outside to have a decent conversation when customers call. I did some research on the Ofcom site, it brought me to a list of legal solutions, I tried the first one, Cel-fi but it was over a thousand pounds, I then tried the other company Ofcom listed called Huaptec, these were in Germany, but thankfully they sent me to a supplier in the UK. The problem is the cheapest cost is still over £500. Has anyone had any experience with using this brand of mobile signal boosters, will it work in a 3 bed semi? The house is about 100m square, has some open plan downstairs but not upstairs.

I really need it for business, I have a home office downstairs, off from the kitchen, that 100% needs coverage, ideally I need to be able to make calls around the kitchen & our main bedroom upstairs. Does anyone know if these will work as well as they promise, it says up to 1500 sq feet? There is a money back guarantee for 2 weeks so I should be able to get it tested within the 2 weeks, but it is a lot of investment in time and as well as the money...anyone have any experience?

Suggest you look for an external 4g or 5g router to solve issue; sounds like

new insulation is with foil sheet, thus forming a Faraday cage 😞

HiI know this is late in the day, but I have just seen your post.

The Nextivity Cell-Fi repeater works very well, I live in BN18 in an old coach house with no signal. I installed a G41 and got excellent service on Three. I know it was expencive, over the long term, cost over the 3 years, it has been worth the cost. £1000 seems a little steep. There is a company called Frequency that can provide the system for you.
