Installation process is straightforward and painless for most clients, access to existing cable trays and risers ensures we can have 4G signal in 100% of the building, where we have worked on Grade A listed building or just building with limited cable runs for example, luxury penthouses we will work with the client to limit the number of antenna, hide them in discreet locations and design a system to beam as much signal as possible from easy access areas such as the loft or behind walls. Thankfully the client does not have this worry, simple contact us and we will do a survey and design a system to suit you, there are a few simple steps to installing a 4G booster

1. Survey the building & design a DAS and cable plan
2. Engineers will fit the system including placing an antenna outdoors and connecting to the main 4G amplifiers
3. The 4G signal for each network is then combined and the signal transmitter via low loss inert cables to indoor antenna throughout the building
4. The indoor 4G antennas send signals that overlap and allow clients to seamlessly talk or send data across 4G anywhere in the building as the move
5. MSS engineer will send a final report on the system and equipment guarantee to the clients
6. For client wanting a signal booster maintenance contract we will see you at regular intervals as we maintain the 4G booster system

4G is a great piece of technology when you’re able to connect to it in a stable way. While most businesses and homes can easily connect to the 4G network, in some larger buildings or buildings with thick walls, the signal cannot penetrate to the inside, leaving you unable to use 4G indoors. 

Ensuring a stable connection to your mobile network is invaluable to the modern office space.

Oftentimes you’ll find people standing by the window in their office trying to get some signal for an important call or video conference, causing unneeded stress and delays in productivity.

Have you ever watched a video on your phone in one room of your house, and while still watching it you take the phone with you to another room on the other side of the house, only to have your video freeze due to a connection loss? 

If either of these sound familiar then 4G boosting is the solution to your problem. 

By using a 4G booster, you can take the 4G signal from directly outside your building and boost it throughout the building. Every phone inside the building will now have full 4G network signals.

There are a number of illegal signal boosters on the market that are not Ofcom (IE’s communications regulator) approved. In order for the equipment to be approved it must be able to boost individual networks and not simply boost all with one unit. Ofcom requires that the repeater must match the correct UK network frequency, each booster must boost your signal to the relevant levels to ensure coverage of the entire building. It must never boost all at the same level as each will have a different input strength and hence will need a different level of power to stay within Ofcom approved guidelines.

Always ask your installer or supplier if the equipment is Ofcom approved. Never install equipment without using a qualified approved mobile repeater supplier such as Mobile Signal Solutions. Check in with your supplier to see if regulations have changed or have been updated and if you need to update your hardware. 

LTE is the same as 4G signal. These boosters are legal devices that help improve call quality, weak phone call signal, and provide faster data speeds. If you tend to have acceptable or strong LTE signal outside your home or office building, but weak to no signal inside, then a mobile phone signal booster will definitely improve your coverage and signal strength indoors.

The installation of a LTE mobile repeater means eliminating dropped phone calls, slow data speeds, lost emails without needing to connect to WiFi, or switch network carriers which will have its own inconvenience and cost.

There is an Mobile Signal solutions OFCOM approved solution to boost poor mobile signal strength at home, the office, industry and enterprise. Our approved mobile signal boosters strengthens indoor signal, providing clear voice conversations and greater data throughout. Having to move to a area with better coverage in the building or actually moving to outside is not acceptable. Installing a LTE signal booster is a simple and effective answer to poor 4G signal.

To know what 4G’s benefits are, we need to take a look at the 3G system and see where 4G improved upon it.

The 3G Wireless systems were proposed to provide voice and paging services, interactive multimedia including teleconferencing, internet access and a variety of other services. While they succeeded in this, these systems only offered wide area network (WAN) coverage of 384 kbps peak rate and limited coverage for 2 Mbps. These kinds of speeds/coverage were not good enough to deal with the information demands the market was creating.

Because of this, providing broadband services on a mobile network was to be 4G’s main focus.

4G was first deployed in Stockholm, Sweden and Oslo, Norway in 2009 as the Long Term Evolution (LTE) 4G standard. It was then introduced throughout the world.

Everything you can do with a 3G phone, you can with a 4G phone except 4G is much faster and smoother than its predecessor, a typical 3G phone can connect to the internet at a maximum speed of up to 21Mbps, whereas a 4G phone can reach speeds of up to 1 gigabit per second for stationary users. 

Web pages load much quicker than before, files can be downloaded in seconds rather than minutes, streaming and HQ video conferencing is largely free of buffering issues. 

4G effectively is broadband for your phone.

The introduction on 4G had a major impact on the mobile gaming industry. Much bigger files could be downloaded at a fraction of the time it took previously. This meant that focus on more complex mobile games could be given by developers. 

Apart from the games now produced being of a better quality than before, another major advancement for the mobile games industry brought about by 4G is online multiplayer capability.  Online multiplayer games have now taken over the games market, as people enjoy playing in a more competitive way. Communities of people have built up through playing these types of games, creating a large online presence. None of this would have been possible without the introduction of 4G.

If you’re looking to boost the 4G signal in your average 3/4 bedroom home, you can buy the relevant signal booster from many electrical retailers ,on and offline, and install it yourself. Instructions are always given on how to do this and a technician shouldn’t be needed. Although a technician could be hired to install at an extra cost if the need does arise.

For larger buildings and offices a survey of your building needs to be carried out by a technician to determine where the signal booster should be located and also the best place to install the internal antenna to boost the 4G signal. This is important to insure maximum coverage and security for your building.

Leading the field in this area is a UK/Ireland based company called Mobile Signal Solutions. They have top trained technicians operating in the mobile technology area for many years, and are experts in improving and securing stable mobile signals for businesses not only in the UK and Ireland, but all around the world. If you want a professionally installed system, these are the people to go to. 

While mobile phone signal boosters are the best way to improve your 4G network connectivity. There are some other less effective ways to get a possible boost to your phone when needed.

There are a number of mobile applications on Google play or the Apple store that purport to increase your phone’s signal strength up to full connectivity. These apps work by letting you alter your phone’s download and upload speeds, meaning you can limit one in favour of the other. This can help if you have a slight problem with your 4G connection, but won’t do much if you have a low data rate. Using any app continuously will drain your phone’s battery, so it’s important to keep this in mind and have a charger handy.

In some cases you can adjust your phone to get a more secure 4G connection.

When your phone’s 4G reception is not strong, your phone automatically switches to the next best network available with strong reception. This doesn’t mean that 4G is unavailable to you, it just means that your 4G connection isn’t strong enough to stop the phone’s auto switch function.

By making some adjustments you can turn off your phone’s auto switch function. Be careful though, you should switch your phone back to its original settings if you notice any harm being done to your phone’s operation.

Now you understand the benefits of 4G and how to boost it, it looks like it will be around for a long time to come, helping people connect to the world around them. We can also see that When needed, a signal booster can make a big difference to the connectivity of a building to the 4G network, and offers many positive applications in the work and homeplace. 

Our approved mobile signal boosters are legal signal boosters for 4G, 5G and LTE voice and data for all IE mobile networks: Vodafone, Virgin  O2, EE ,  Sky Mobile, Three and EE Giffgaff,  etc

There’s no better feeling than that of an high speed data connection that doesn’t buffer. You can enjoy this feeling by getting the 4G/LTE connection. It gives you the best connection as well as fast internet speeds. Just try picturing yourself surfing at 2G speeds yet you have a 4G enabled mobile phone! Frustrating right? So, how do I make sure that I enjoy better signals?
