Despite the rapid development of mobile communication networks, not everywhere you can catch a good signal. There was even a case when a British bank had to change its windows as the walls and new windows after the repair completely blocked the signal. In everyday life we often face a situation where the signal was being caught in a few meters from the point where it would be convenient to use a mobile. And this problem can be solved.
If the signal disappears in the room or is poised with the final division of the indicator, and near the windows it is confident enough to catch a signal at least with one division – the amplifier from Think Geek can help you.
The way it works is simple: Place the antenna in the area of strong signal reception of at least one division, and connect the gadget to the USB port of your laptop. As a result, you get a strong reception within a radius of 2-3 feet from the laptop.
Cord length, connecting the antenna and the USB connector is about 4.5 meters, so that it is indeed possible to use amplifier only in case of a fairly close location of consistent reception. However, you can try to make a chain of such gadgets, but the use of such is not yet known.
You can buy a gadget in ThinkGeek store for $ 99.99.
