| My wife has a client in suburban Chicago where there is no cell phone signal in the office for three of the four providers. She has TMobile and a Hotspot at Home compatible phone. She connects via wifi nand is golden.
The other day, I was a in a hospital which has a no cell phone policy, but there is a guest wifi network. I shut off my transmitter, connected via Truphone and was golden. I had a fight with a nurse, but set her up in the discussion and won. (Q. Butall the doctors are using their phones; A. They have special phones that don't interfere; Q. Yes, they use the hospital's network; A. Exactly; Q. So does mine, see. You provide this free guest net so that people don't have to use cellular frequencies). |
