You must be lucky and have a useable signal anywhere indoors and the
places you go. Upstairs bya window on the right side of the house we
have a useable mobile signal. Go 50 yds down the road there is zilch on
any network.

Like I have always said - even as a 'phone they are next to useless,
never mind for GPS and watching TV.

I can't get a signal indoors - except beside the window of our spare
bedroom. So, I bought a Vodaphone Sure Signal device which allows me &
others to use the phone indoors - via the internet.
