Does this unit help at all with cell phone reception inside an RV or is it strictly for Data/Internet?
Your question is two fold
-
If your cellphone plan allows WIFI Calling the Answer would be yes, since you would connect to the WIFI Network on the Pepwave to make calls.
-
If you are looking to boost the cellular signal then the answer is no you will need a booster, or wireless amplifier see: Wilson, Surecall
- Yes if you use wifi calling and texting
- Can get better signal with external antennas, use separate LAN AP inside
Thank you! That is what I thought, since I was pretty sure the cellular antennas for the Pepwave are receive only. I am adding an outside antenna for better reception for internet and I then just use wifi calling for messaging and voice, if cell signals are low on phone.
huh?
I guess the cellular antennas would have to be send/receive, just data only. Is that what you went “huh” about? I am new to this and still trying to rap my head around how this all works.
