What are the mobile signal boosters?

Mobile signal boosters, also known as mobile signal amplifiers or mobile signal repeaters, are electronic devices that can help mobile phone users improve their coverage in areas where they do not get a good signal. An outdoor antenna takes the weak signal from outside and amplifies it through an indoor signal repeater to improve voice, 2G, 3G, 4G, and 5G signal coverage in your home or office.

If there are areas where your phone calls keep dropping, a signal booster can help improve your mobile phone signal to allow for stable and reliable calls with improved voice quality. Mobile Signal boosters can also help to improve your mobile data connection in areas with weak coverage to allow for faster download and streaming speeds. If you find that you have a weak or even a good signal outside, but a poor signal inside, a mobile signal booster can help to improve your connectivity inside your home or office.

Check out our Buyer’s Guide for more information about how to choose the right mobile booster and install the device in your home or business.

What causes a weak mobile signal?

There are several factors that can contribute to a weak mobile phone signal in your area. These can include:

What are the benefits of using a mobile signal booster?

Can I use signal boosters in my home?

Yes, our mobile signal boosters are ideal for use in homes. Many consumers want to use their mobile phone to replace an expensive landline phone and may need a stronger mobile phone signal in the house. Many homes also have a “dead spot” where the outside signal does not quite reach. Our mobile signal boosters can help to enhance your mobile signal to any area of your home where you might struggle to connect to the mobile network.

Can I use signal boosters in my business?

Absolutely! We have a range of mobile signal boosters to improve mobile signal connections for a variety of mobile service providers, property sizes, and the number of simultaneous users. These devices are perfect for use in businesses such as hotels, cafes, restaurants, or farms.

Can I use signal boosters outdoors?

The short answer is “no”. Mobile phone signal boosters are designed to work indoors where radio waves can “bounce” off walls and easily reach the mobile device. They are not suitable for outdoor use as the boosted signal would quickly dissipate without being contained inside a building.

Are mobile signal boosters legal in the UK?

According to Ofcom regulations, it is perfectly legal to use mobile phone signal boosters for homes and businesses in the UK. No license is required for boosters which boost signals for any cellular network in UK.

Is a mobile phone signal booster the same as a wireless router? Will it help my WiFi signal?

Mobile signal boosters will not help your WiFi service. They are designed to work with the signal frequencies for mobile phones and cellular devices, improving 2G, 3G, 4G, and 5G signals. The WiFi in your home uses a different frequency.

What’s the difference between 3G and 4G?

3G signals are generally used for voice calls, texting, and for basic internet access. 4G is mainly used for higher-speed internet access for multimedia, apps, and data-heavy streaming.

A 3G booster will improve your signal for talking and texting, but a 4G signal booster is more future-proof and will improve your reception for calls, texts, and high-speed data connections.

What about 5G?

5G is the next generation of mobile connectivity and is currently being rolled out across the UK by a number of mobile operators. 5G operates on a much higher frequency than 3G or 4G, which provides for much faster download speeds and higher bandwidth. However, signals on higher frequencies don’t travel as far as signals on lower frequencies – this is why the government is currently installing 5G relay nodes throughout the country to provide maximum coverage. However, even with this extra infrastructure, a 5G signal might still deteriorate inside your home. Luckily, we have a range of boosters that can help to amplify your 5G signal if this happens.

Do mobile signal boosters need an internet connection?

Nope, our boosters do not need any connectivity. They simply pick up the existing mobile signal from outside and amplify it through your property.

Do I need to register my booster with my mobile network provider?

No, you don’t need to register your mobile signal booster with any network carrier. You can use it right out the box and enjoy high-speed mobile data connectivity and the highest quality of voice signals to make and receive your calls.

Can I install the mobile booster myself?

Yes! The installation process is very straightforward. All our mobile boosters come with detailed installation instructions for you to install the device yourself within 15-30 minutes and improve your mobile phone reception with immediate results. Read our Buyer’s Guide for more information on the installation process. We also have customer care agents on hand 24/7 to walk you through the process, should you need it.
