Simply put, a cell signal booster gives you a workable signal even in deep dead zones in your home or car. It all starts with an outside antenna, which communicates with nearby cell towers and feeds the signal in. Once inside, a booster amplifies the cell signal received by the outside antenna and relays it to strategically placed indoor antennas in the troublesome spots more commonly known as dead zones. A mobile hotspot protects you against these nagging problems, whether they exist in your home or car, and it even guards you against future network changes or surrounding developments that may negatively impact the signal you already rely on today.
