We have really low mobile signal at home. (in Pembrokeshire.)

Can I buy an antenna or something to try increase our chances of getting a better signal?

We've got broadband coming in (via telephone line) in 2 weeks but that isn't going to help with the Mobile reception.

Any ideas gratefully received. Thanks

In the past I've looked at these, never actually tried one though. http://www.mobilerepeater.co.uk
Are these illegal to use but not own? Some quirk of law?

I'm trying to solve this issue for my wife (I work in London during the week so not such a big deal for me).

She has an iPhone 4 or 5 (whatever is not the latest one and she is with Vodafone.

Do you literally buy a mini aerial and plug it in to the phone?

Thanks 3200gt. Looking into your solution now. Then I've got to sell it to the wife!
