Hi - new to the forum and not really a "techie" so please go easy!

I live in a poor reception area being partially shielded from line-of-sight to local cell sites and as a result my phones connect to one several kilometers away with poor reception.  I have a few "hot spots" around the house but not in my home office where I need a reliable signal.


I'm aware there are restrictions (bans) on using repeaters but does this extend to low power (say 3W) boosters designed for a range of about 50m and do these units actually work?


Thanks in advance for any advice.


Cheers, Alan
