Mobile phone amplifier

Hello everyone,

once is not customary, it's me who is asking questions :-)

I'm in an area of Paris where the GSM signal is really bad, no matter the operator (yes, yes, we are in 2007 and Paris's coverage is not 100% as advertised).

Do you know if there are signal boosters that plug into the socket, which work in France? I understood that there are in Canada at least:

Otherwise, I've seen these kinds of circuit boards to put inside the mobile phone to amplify the signal, but I have doubts about their effectiveness and concerns for health:

Your opinion?

Hello,

As a low-current specialist, I guarantee you that any solutions using stickers or otherwise do not work.

There is indeed NO way for the general public to amplify a signal. However, there are ways to repeat the GSM signal.

Quite expensive, it involves receiving and re-emitting the signal.

It's a solution that costs around €1000 on average, plus the installer's fee.

This remains a public solution, as a professional solution obviously costs much more.

The other solution is to move...

Hello lechirurgiendelordi and thank you for this insight.
It is indeed an amount I would be willing to invest just to use my laptop - my wife, myself, and our visiting guests - from home...
What is this solution? Which company can I contact?
