*peeks in*
Hi, I don't usually come in here but I have a tecchie question and I'm hoping someone here can answer it!
We live just on the edge of a good reception area for O2.
Our broadband reception is terrible - the signal is very weak and very unreliable.
We currently use an O2 dongle for the laptop and my mobile is also on O2.
Most of the time this works OK, but the signal is never great and sometimes it's terrible.
I have heard that there are signal boosters you can buy to improve reception and I have seen a website which sells them, but I have no idea if they're appropriate to our situation, how they work, or anything else about them.
Can anyone advise me?
I know they're legally dubious but I'm intending to ask O2 for permission befire we install one - I just want to be speaking from an informed position!
Thanks in advance for your help and patience
