In Finland, it is very usual that cell providers can bring a mini-cell
(_not_ a repeater, a real cell) _in_ to the building and wire all floors and
especially facilities that are below ground level. In my previous life, I
got
a cell provider to install an extension to the in-house antenna network to a
previously unused area of the basement when we decided to build a new
machine
room there. Full coverage indeed. :) Well, Helsinki is a city where even
the
metro system has 100% coverage from all four network operators :)
Just call your cell operator customer service and ask for someone who is
able
to talk about coverage issues.
