Mobilfunknetz einrichten: Wie kann ich das Mobilfunknetz aktivieren und bei Bedarf das Mobilfunknetz im Haus verstärken?
Setting up the mobile network: How can I activate the mobile network and reinforce the mobile network in the house if necessary?
You can specify how the mobile device uses data yourself via the settings for mobile networks. Depending on the provider and tariff, the cell phone may automatically connect to the fastest available data network. It may be necessary to activate the mobile network by inserting the SIM card and making the settings for the selected mobile network provider. After setting up the mobile network, an icon for this mobile network is displayed in the status bar. Only the services of the GSM mobile network support simultaneous voice and data communication. Parallel use is not possible with other mobile phone connections (CDMA networks). The mobile network can be switched off temporarily by "Deactivate mobile data". The mobile network can then be reactivated by clicking "Activate mobile data". Quick access via the "Mobile data" icon allows you to activate the mobile network with just one tap. This can also be used to resolve connection problems and is even easier with flight mode. WLAN support can also be activated. If you then leave the free WLAN range, you will have to expect costs for mobile data usage or need a corresponding mobile phone subscription that includes this. It is therefore often better to deactivate mobile data and roaming when abroad in order to avoid high unforeseen mobile costs. If necessary, you can reinforce the mobile network at home after setting up the mobile network. This requires a mobile network amplifier (also known as a repeater). This can significantly improve poor mobile phone reception. This is because two major factors are decisive for mobile phone reception: the distance to the nearest transmitter mast and the number or material of obstacles in the way of the signal. A mobile phone repeater picks up the signal, amplifies it and then transmits it again. This serves to improve mobile phone reception, especially in closed rooms - so it can also be used to strengthen the mobile phone network in the home.
