I just bought a Wi-Ex extender for my apartment. We went from zero bars to full bars. I live on the bottom floor of my apartment building in San Francisco, and get full bars outside. Until they use signals that better penetrate buildings, this is the way to go. Building owners should offer it as an amenity.

This is not an adequate measure to address lack of proper network infrastructure investment. With these on the market, why build towers at all? Just tell the customer that their problems with QoS are due to not purchasing the proper equipment. With AT&T also selling home internet access this can, in effect, double-bill the customer for AT&T's lack of proper coverage.

AT&Ts lack of full coverage is why I switched to Sprint. Even living in a major Metropolitan area like Chicago, I would get service every other block (if I was lucky) and I would have to hang out my dining room window just to use my cell phone. Glad AT&T is FINALLY working on a fix (8 years too late).

Fastest G3 network? Yeah at dropping calls!
