    AT&T Finally has activated 3G coverage in my area. Now here's my issue. My home must be right on the edge of 3G coverage. I can power off my Iphone, and have 3G signal for approx 5 mins then it changes back to EDGE. I can turn off, then back on my 3G setting on my iphone, and I have 3G signal again for about 5 mins, then it goes back to EDGE. I can drive down the road approx 3/4 of a mile and get 3G signal constantly. Will a zBoost system maybe help me keep a constant 3G signal on my phones? Maybe by using a Yagi?
    Thx for any info on this topic.

    Depends whether the signal outside your house is strong enough . Wi-ex amplifier retransmit a signal well but do not do a good job amplifying a weak signal . This system will do the job for you

    SCT Wireless Sphere Cellullar Extender [Sphere] - $479.99
    It has greater sensitiviity and amplifies really well.

    I would still recommend the SCT system

    Thx for the info. I'm sure the SCT system would perform much better. I'll have to see if I can swing this by the Lil woman. The SCT would work with my AT&T 3G cell and also my Verizon air card. I'm have no DSL or Cable Internet in my area. This would be my best way to go to get the best performance wouldn't it?
    Thx again

    The SCT system works with any carrier on 800mhz or 1900 mhz. At&T , Verizon , Sprint etc. , It will increase your performance.
