Well I started looking them up already but I was curious to whether anyone here has experience with them or has reccomendations on what to get. because there are price variances. there are the 20.00 ones that are just signal boosters and then there are actual repeaters that cost like 300.00

Iba, I don't really understand what you're even stating by putting those in big letters.  OK, so they are repeaters, but is there a method that isn't $300 like the booster that is $20 that would work well enough?

He asked what would solve his friend's problem. I told him a repeater. He then went on to question it by mentioning signal boosters, therefore I repeated (lol) why I originally said using bolds and large font sizes.

And I'm the douchebag.

Sure, tell him to get a signal booster that he has to plug into his cell phone and can only use in one spot, unless he gets a smaller antenna and holds the phone in one hand and walks around with the antenna in the other.

Or, he could pony up and get a fucking repeater.

facepalm.

Instead of being an ignorant non-knowledgeable fuck, you should have just gone with my original recommendation and searched using google for repeaters, and almost 95% of sites out there will give you in the description exactly what it will do.

Don't call me out unless you want to pick a fight with a bull.

There's a million choices.

Range, bands, efficiencies, sizes, applications...

You gave no information, and expected us to present you with exactly what you wanted. We don't know his intended application, so how are we supposed to recommend anything?
