Add Verizon Coverage In Your House For $250
by Jason Wilk on January 19, 2009

- We’ve been hearing quite a bit about femtocell technology in the last year as the latest way for both carriers and consumers to help eachother out in getting the best coverage. If you have a weak 2G or 3G network coverage in or around your home/office, buying the new Verizon Wireless Network Extender will make your life a lot easier on you and them. The extender connect to your ehternet cord and emits a wireless signal to boost cell reception and Wi-Fi.
- For most it seems unreasonable right now to add yet another box to the house, but in the coming years it will be in every house. Why? Because with next generation coverage coming (next up 4G), it will be impossible for each carrier to build out a separate network infrastructure. Having femtocells in the house can grab hold of those networks and provide you instantly with the latest technology while you wait for them to build a default tower in your zone. The price is a little much @ $250.00 a box. As we have showed before, Motorola is coming out with their own femtocell box that is disquised as a digital picture frame. At the moment, this seems like a better deal for Verizon. Hold out and prices will come down.
