From: Fergus McMenemie on 8 Sep 2009 07:09 Hi, Anybody out there using a vodaphone femtocell to improve reception within their home etc. Vodaphone suggested I try one of these to improve the very poor reception around my home. However my bandwidth cap is rather low at 2G a month and I was wondering how much bandwidth the femtocell requires when:- Phone is in use making calls Phone is idle around the house Phone is off or well away from the house Regards Ferg

One aerial outside, one in the house. Two way boost for your mobile. Or you could make your own passive repeater with nothing more than two aerials and coax.
