I have absolutely no service at my new house, but do have internet via cable. Will this device provide coverage there or does it simply serve to boost a nearby signal?

What device are you talking about?

[oberon73]

Verizon femtocell/network extender

[rcschnoor · Accepted solution]

The network extender does not boost an existing signal. It creates its own cell signal, basically acting as its own cell tower, getting service thru your broadband connection.

So it does work as a standalone device then. Connected to the internet

Yes, using your existing broadband provider as the conduit.

Thanks, rcschnoor. Just to add on to this for you, oberon73, our network extender has a 14 day trial period. It’s backed by our Worry Free. Any troubles with the device, and you can return it.
