What is a Wireless Network Extender?
Otherwise known as a “femtocell,” the wireless network extender is a base unit that connects to the mobile provider’s network through a home or business broadband Internet connection. This technology effectively “extends” the cellular network, because cell phones will work wherever there’s a broadband Internet connection, even for areas where there’s no cell phone signal. This is an ideal solution for cell phone customers who may not be able to get very good reception at home.
