The Problem
When CellTeks arrived on the scene we recognized the problem immediately. With today’s technology, we are seeing more and more people run their home businesses' off a cellular connection. Especially if where you live doesn’t have access to a landline or fiber connection. Cellular has become the go-to solution to help people with limited choices for internet. Other options such as satellite, or WISP’s(wireless internet service provider) for your internet usually leaves much to be desired. Over and over again many of our customers tell us of the struggles they have with these internet providers. They tell us of latency issues, slow speeds, and inconsistent services. Wi-Fi over a cellular connection has become a miracle worker. We see faster speeds, latency that rivals fiber, and more reliable connections.
The Solution
What we designed included several pieces of equipment. We first installed a carrier-specific Cell Phone Signal Booster. A Cel-Fi Pro to be exact (MSRP $699). We choose to hook up an External Yagi Donor Antenna to ensure a strong and reliable connection. This External Antenna Expansion kit runs an additional (MSRP $299). Once we are able to amplify a strong and reliable cellular signal that in turn gives the signal to a device from AT&T called a ‘Home Base’. This Home-Base connects to AT&T’s network through cellular frequencies and then turns that connection into a Wi-Fi signal that all your devices can use. We then configured the Home-Base to her existing Wi-Fi infrastructure so that the Wi-Fi signal could be broadcasted to the guest houses as well. This entailed a router along with outdoor access points.
The Results
Here are a few things that Ms. Yancey said after the installation was done.
Ms. Yancey: “I couldn’t live without internet or cell service. I literally could not have done my business here with satellite internet. My business is totally internet-based. I was in a panic over how I was going to do business… Before CellTeks' solution, the guest would use up all the bandwidth and I couldn’t even get online…Before I couldn’t even download small pictures."
We asked: “How satisfied were you with CellTeks and the whole process from survey to installation?"
Ms. Yancey: " It was seamless and very professional. What was particularly impressive to me was how CellTeks customized the solution to fit my needs. The installation of everything was careful and thoughtful…Before CellTeks I had other contractors come out and no one could get anything to work."
