Equipment and service should be free

The telecos should be giving this equipment and service away for free. It eases the load on their network, so you're doing them a favor using your bandwidth.

I agree. I lived in a house that had no sprint reception while 100 yards away I had full reception. Being a long time customer (8 years at the time) and due for a contract renewal, I tried to talk them into the equipment and no additional charge per month for the service. I asked, why should I pay extra when I'm providing them the internet connection. They wouldn't help me.

I agree.. I could pay a couple of hundred dollars and just purchase a repeater, and NOT have to use MY broadband connection for THEIR service. Also, a repeater would be good for ANY carrier.

Then tell your neighbors, HOA and town Governments to stop opposing new cell towers. The signals aren't going to get to your house all by themselves!

Not to mention 1800Mhz+ doesn't penetrate walls very well at all.
