I have poor cell phone signal

New home. I have poor cell phone signals (my cell uses ATT towers, Wife's cell uses T-Mobile towers). Great internet signal from 'CenturyLink.' Great wi-fi signal thru-out 1900 sf house. Many weak and dead cell phone signal areas thru-out home. Will buying an 'AC220 X4S Mesh Extender' solve my cell phone issues? Are there other ssolutions? Thanks, Bob-BA.

    Cell phone signal is different than wifi signal. You put that you have great wifi signal through your house. If your phones do wifi calling, you can use that feature. 

    The X4S extender isn't a cell phone booster. Its a wifi extender. 

     

    Or am I missing something or misunderstanding what you're trying to say?
