Bad Cell Signal at Home, Any Solutions?

<< < (2/2)

I have the same problem with Vodafone where I live in the UK. I threatened to cancel my contract. The halved the price of my line rental and gave me a new phone. I know its not a solution but It is better on my pocket

That's only worth it if the cell company is willing to deal with permits and whatnot.

I do own the land, but unfortunately it is 1 acre and a wooded area behind my house.  Would a more powerful YAGI directional antenna would possibly be able to get a good signal (if aimed in the direction of the tower properly)?

Well that's the crummy part about my house.  I have people come by with Sprint, Verizon, and a local area phone company, Bluegrass, and they all get bad reception.
