AT&T MicroCell: Do You Need It?
What exactly is an AT&T MicroCell? Well, despite having the strongest 4G LTE network in the nation, having reliable AT&T service isn't always a guarantee. Things like distance from cell tower and building material often can disrupt your cell signal and weaken your cellular service.
The result? Dropped calls. Stuck text messages. Slow internet. Spotty reception. Poor coverage.
An AT&T MicroCell acts like a mini-cell tower, radiating signal from inside the home or office to give you more bars. It increases you signal strength and is compatible with 2G, 3G, and 4G LTE. At $300-400 retail and with no monthly fees, it seems like a viable solution.
But there's a catch.
The MicroCell needs to be connected to a landline internet service to work. In short, it converts your Wi-fi to cell signals, which is a little hard to swallow considering T-Mobile offers Wi-Fi calling without additional hardware. And even if you can use your landline internet to boost your cell signals, this leads to reduced speeds for all Wi-Fi routers and internet devices since it has to share bandwidth with the MicroCell.
And considering that an AT&T Microcell is carrier-specific, if you ever change carriers, it won't be compatible with your Sprint, Verizon, T-Mobile or any non-AT&T carrier.
But there is another solution, it's called an AT&T Signal Booster.

An AT&T Signal Booster takes the existing weak signal, amplifies it multiple times, then rebroadcasts the boosted signal to an area in need in your home or car. Stronger signal, more bars, and reliable connection.
An AT&T cell phone signal booster DOES NOT require landline internet connection to help enhance your service nor does it requires monthly fees. If you have any type of signal, it will boost it and give you more bars. The typical signal booster amplifies signal up to 32X.
So, if you're truly looking to cut the cord, an AT&T Signal Booster is your answer.

An AT&T booster from weBoost is the gold standard.

So what's the better value? An AT&T MicroCell or AT&T Signal Booster? It depends. If you already pay for landline internet and don't plan on changing carriers soon, an AT&T MicroCell is a good option. But if you don't have landline internet and already have signal (even though it's spotty) and might change carriers in the future, an AT&T Signal Booster is the better option.
