All are one off purchases and you need to register the mobile phone
numbers
on them as this then stops other people hogging your broadband line
for
mobile related stuff.

I asked 3 for one and they wouldn't let me have it, they just promoted
their "use WiFi when there's no mobile coverage" app, which has since
been discontinued and didn't work anyway.

I don't think you can "purchase" a "home signal".

In fact I just looked, the Three web site says:-

Home Signal

Update: Three no longer issue home signal boxes

It's the perfect solution but, for some reason, the mobile providers
won't actually supply them.

Because wifi calling works much better now because you can
do that anywhere you can find a wifi service when you discover
there is no mobile coverage where you happen to be even if
that is just some place you will never go to again.
