A Network Extender has been released by Verizon Wireless in an effort to boost cell phone reception. Apparently, many consumers are having some issues as far as cell phone reception is concerned and with this piece of hardware, they can expect better coverage and signals. The best part of it is that Verizon will not charge additional for it.

The Verizon Network Extender is essentially a mini-cell tower that works by using a customer’s existing broadband Internet connection to provide coverage in an area up to 5,000 square feet. The femtocell, which is made by Samsung, can also enhance the ability to send text messages, surf the mobile Web, and download e-mail, but it doesn’t support 3G speeds on Verizon’s 3G network.
