I installed a Vodafone version Cel-Fi at my office and locked it to 4G. Now I get nice VoLTE calling there :)

Do you mean this one?

Would love to improve my Mum's reception at her place but I think the 4G where she lives is 700, so that probably wouldn't help her situation :(

The model I installed was the Cel-Fi Go and is LTE700 capable. Feel free to get in touch if you need more info.

Does she need 4G? It boosts 3G reception as well so could be ideal if 3G is all she needs.

Just a heads up to say that after a year of not buying it and battling with crap signal....

I dropped the $1,700 on this and it works really well.

Powertec were a bit of a struggle to deal with, but we got there eventually.

They tell me that their applications have never been turned down, so it seems like anyone can register on of these.

I now get 4 out of 5 bars through the whole house (previously none or 1, with calls constantly cutting out).

I think with a bit of tweaking of the antenna, we'll get it to 5 bars.

Should talk to your boss about them paying for some of the cost, lots of companies I know have helped out people now that everyone working from home. worst case is no, best case you get $1700
