Scott,

Please contact MSU Telecom Systems.  We work with all of the major cellular vendors to put in the right equipment, or to help them enhance service within campus buildings.  We can install licensed frequency BDA (Bi-Directional-Antennas) to help enhance service.

You can fill out a service request for consulting on our website at http://www.telecom.msu.edu/sr, or you can call our office at 3-5515.

Subject: [MSUNAG] Cell phone dead zones in buildings

I've gotten a couple of inquiries lately about what can be done to improve cell phone reception within our building.  Mainly it's "I can't get my email!" from smartphone users.

I suppose they could go to WiFi, but I'm told this will quickly suck batteries dry (I don't have a smartphone myself so I don't have any firsthand experience with that)

Is there such a thing as a cell repeater that can be placed inside a building?  Or some other solution that has worked for folks?
