Yes, that too is another way. Our cell service is with Verizon and they support, in fact encourage, Wi-Fi calling if available. And, it works quite well, at least in our house especially with HD and video calls.how about turning the WiFi on and use your modem as an antenna
That depends on the internet service working when you need it. I was having problems with signal on my new cell phone. Verizon could not find the problem so they sent me one of those WiFi units to use for free. I didn't even take it out of the box. I bought a MingColl cell phone amplifier and my signal went from maybe 1 bar to 4 bars solid, with three bars solid in other rooms and in the basement.how about turning the WiFi on and use your modem as an antenna
That works great.... until the internet service goes down, then you lose both internet AND cell service. IMO, keeping the two separate may be important, especially during an emergency or catastrophes. There are many reasons where one could go down and not the other.Do the easiest thing first - if your phone has "wifi calling," enable it.
It sure does.That works great
No, he did not. He did not say anything about today. He said, “ever since we put a metal roof on the house my cell phone doesn't come in well. So I though maybe there is something available, like a antenna to help with this problem.” “ever since” sounds like it has been awhile. Since the metal roof is there to stay, he is obviously looking for a permanent solution. The same thing happened to me when I moved my computer to a room to which I had added a steel roof.He asked about getting a cell signal today through his metal roof…..
