The 7 Most Common Questions We Get Asked At Signal Solutions
When it comes to ensuring reliable mobile signal, we know there are plenty of questions to consider. Mobile connectivity is essential for businesses and homes alike, and finding the right solution can feel overwhelming.
As specialists in installing mobile signal boosters across the UK and Europe, we’ve heard them all. To help, we’ve put together a list of the eight most common questions we’re asked, along with straightforward answers to guide you.
1. Are mobile signal boosters legal?
While there are illegal boosters on the market, our mobile signal boosters we use are legal in the UK and Europe. At Signal Solutions, we only install Nextivity CEL-FI boosters, which are fully compliant with Ofcom’s regulations. This means they’re network safe, licence-exempt, and designed to boost mobile signals without causing interference.

2. How long does it take to install?
Installation time varies based on the size and complexity of the project. We have done projects that last over 2 years but any retro fit installations usually take from anywhere between a couple days to a couple weeks. There is no straight answer we can give you without knowing your building but our team prioritises efficiency, minimising any disruption to your operations.

3. What maintenance does a mobile signal booster require?
Mobile signal boosters are low-maintenance. Once installed, they require minimal attention. However, we recommend periodic checks to ensure everything is functioning properly. Our team is always available for support and offers post-installation services to keep your system running smoothly.
4. How do I choose the right mobile signal booster for my needs?
No need to worry about finding a solution… We do it all for you! Choosing the right booster depends on your building’s size, layout, and signal challenges. Our process begins with a free desktop survey, where we assess your specific needs and design a tailored solution. From there, we recommend the best booster for your situation, whether it’s for a small office, a large hospital, or anything in between.
5. Do I need professional installation for a mobile signal booster?
We always recommend professional installation. While some DIY solutions exist, our expert engineers ensure that the equipment is installed correctly and positioned for maximum performance. A poorly placed booster can lead to inconsistent signal strength, so having professionals handle it guarantees the best results.
6. How quickly can your solution be installed?
We understand the importance of getting your signal issues resolved quickly. Once you’ve had your site survey and approved our proposal, we aim to install your solution as soon as possible. For urgent cases, we’ll work with you to prioritise installation.
7. How do I monitor my equipment after installation?
The Amplifi-Qx portal makes monitoring your mobile signal booster simple and effective. It provides accurate, real-time performance insights, so you can be confident your system is working perfectly.
Available as both a mobile app and a web portal, Amplifi-Qx connects seamlessly with your booster setup, delivering diagnostics and troubleshooting capabilities directly at your fingertips. Our portal is directly linked to Nextivity’s own internal monitoring systems. It’s included with every installation, ensuring you have everything you need for reliable mobile signal every day.
