Try searching picocell or femtocell instead. -----Original Message----- From: Gary Schrock [mailto:[log in to unmask]] Sent: Monday, September 13, 2010 12:37 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: [MSUNAG] at&t microcell use on campus? I vaguely remember a while back there was some talk about these microcell cell phone boosters on the nag list, but so far I have had any luck searching through the archives for it. I also vaguely remember that in that discussion there might have been some talk about problems if people ran these? Anyone have any recollection of this? The reason I'm wondering is that I've had a faculty member ask me about whether one of these would work in her office, because she gets basically no reception in there. (She said the only way she can get any signal is to put the phone on the window sill right up against the window). She's been using one of these at home with good results, and wondered about using one here. (And yes, I'd tend to say if she gets lousy reception at home and work with at&t, then maybe it's time to switch providers, but that's not what she's interested in doing.) The way our building is built I'd guess that any signal from this wouldn't go too far beyond her office. Thanks, Gary
