If your not amenable to wifi-calling then the at&t booster is the next best solution. When your cell tower signal is low and you have reliable wifi your phone will automatically switch to wifi-c and your calls and txt's will be routed through your wifi signal. If you have newer devices wifi calling is the preferred solution, simply turn it on in your phones settings and no additional devices or hardware or connections needed. YOu need only a few mbps up and down for it to function. This sub-forum is about the AT&T Cell booster which isn't really a booster it's a fem2cell, which basically broadcasts a real cell signal locally and needs connected to the internet on the backend and sends all your calls and txt's back through the internet. I don't believe AT&T sells one of those they may re-sell someone else's. I used one for a while and found I basically had to be within a few feet of the indoor antenna.

Those I've found are really flaky because of all the regulations on how much the unit can re-broadcast. It sounds like you have a "real" booster that takes the real cell tower signal and amplifies it and rebroadcasts it. but still annoying the at&t booster isn't working anymore. In a few weeks, we're supposed to be getting fiber, so I guess I could just use voip at home.


On the same antenna pole, I have another antenna on it that hooks up to a netgear AT&T hotspot. Doubt AT&T just coincidently decommissioned a tower. (I haven't replaced the outdoor antenna yet.) I'm at a loss of what do do about the signal. I've replaced the booster and indoor antenna and no difference. The booster company sent me out a replacement booster for free. I have re-pointed the antenna towards an AT&T tower. After we switched, I was getting full bars in the house. So, a few weeks ago, my wife and I switched from Verizon to AT&T. I asked my father-in-law what kind of signal he has. My cell signal with verizon still was really bad. I mounted a very high pole behind our house that more than clears the peak of the roof with an antenna on the top of it pointing towards the nearest verizon tower. I went on amazon and bought a cell booster. When we first moved here, we had Verizon service.
