 Lack of phone reception at home. - henry k
I live in the dark ages but soon to get a smart phone for general use.
Meanwhile I need to choose a network.
I am presently on EE. Until recently I had a free signal booster supplied by EE but that is no longer supported.
I can make and receive voice and send text messages.
Signal strength is just about one indoors downstairs
Step just out doors and things improve.
Incoming text message are often delayed. some take 12 hours to arrive.
I guess I need to get folks to try a phone from each network here before I chose which to buy from.

Why is the signal strength so bad indoors ?
I live in a 1930s semi about half a mile from a base station.
No major modifications have been made to the house so no new RSJs installed.
Aluminium window were installed 10+ years ago. Could that be the cause ?
