Yes, you are probably unlucky to bring the signal into the hobby room without a larger and expensive installation, or you know a neighbor who is only one concrete ceiling higher and provides you with a WLAN to use.
Even with D-LAN Powerline, it wonât be that easy with separate electricity meters without special adjustments.

There is a significant hurdle from Bakom.
âEach individual mobile network operator whose frequencies you amplify with your repeater must give you their consent to do so. â
I know some people who use this module at the link below without any problems.

That will be difficult, I would try to get a DSL line somehow, but that would have to go through the building management etc. and would probably involve costs
Alternatively, if there is very little cell phone reception, perhaps. With a 4G/5G router with a âlargeâ antenna, repeater or similar, it is hardly possible to implement it because of Bakom templates and actually every repeater system needs an outdoor antenna because it is not possible if both antennas (receiving and transmitting antennas) are inside are in the same room (feedback and stuff)
Or somehow share the connection with a neighbor or something (via WiFi or better via cable)
Yes, I also know some people who have a radar detector installed in their car.
To be clear: I donât care who uses what where as long as Iâm not affected.
But I also believe that one should not recommend something to a questioner without pointing out the legal basis.
Iâm really interested: Can these devices be used in Switzerland without a permit?
Hi @HP
Iâm really interested: Can these devices be used in Switzerland without a permit?
The only thing I can contribute is that I have already observed the decommissioning of such a device. The men in the white van with an antenna on the roof confiscated the part straight away. The subsequent calculation was also not negligible.
Please note:
If you import a mobile phone repeater from abroad, you are responsible for its compliance; Importing non-compliant radio equipment is a punishable offense.

So far I havenât found a Swiss shop that offers such things. Of course the sites all look like Switzerland, but the âpracticalâ thing here is that you can ship from abroad and then you are not responsible.
The missing imprint on the linked page from @WalterB, the postal address of the NTT building in Geneva, âcopyright: Switzerlandâ + the zefix entry that I couldnât find donât really convince me đ.
If I then click on the top link on the page and with an image from the database for non-compliant Comparing devices, I can only advise against it.
According to Bakom, the legal operation of such repeaters is only permitted in the following cases:
Each individual mobile network operator whose frequencies you amplify with your repeater must give you their consent to do so. The mobile network operators have a license for the use of mobile frequencies. You plan your mobile network and can also take the mobile repeaters into account in your planning. Depending on the requirements of the mobile network operator, a broadband amplifier or a selective amplifier may be used. You may not use the mobile radio repeater without their consent.

Hi @WalterB
Iâm always drifting more offtopic - since Iâve been interested in the topic of âmobile radio repeatersâ for a long time, I just called and had a nice conversation đ:
- The company is based in the UK
- Warehouse is in Slovakia and Hong Kong (=The customer imports!)
- Approval is ânot a problemâ because the devices are CE certified and âdo not interfereâ with the networks.
- The repeaters worked with all providers
Because I already had the headset at hand, I quickly spoke to OFCOM.
Simplified: Repeaters are not fundamentally prohibited, but they must be compliant and may not be cause disruptions.
Whether this is the case is completely impossible for laypeople (including myself) to judge. If a provider reports disruptions to OFCOM, the white van comes and the troublemaker is searched for and found and proceedings are opened. The repeater operator is liable for the malfunction - not the seller. You have a lot of cases of non-compliant products, also due to the flood of different models. They would advise against this for private customers and instead rely on WiFi. (With WiFi calling and WhatsApp etc. this is a good alternative.)
Personally, I would stay away from it and limit myself to WiFi đ
@ThomasS I think it would be very interesting to see this topic from a providerâs perspective, perhaps as a knowledge box article? Does Swisscom offer a solution itself?

Yes, the approval is probably true because the users have obtained this approval, I canât say where, at least they are using these mobile amplifiers.
Swisscom also offers something like this, but unfortunately it has already been discussed somewhere in the community. Unfortunately, I canât find it.

Hello everyone
The use of such an amplifier should be treated with caution and is the responsibility of the user.
If such an amplifier causes interference with mobile phone providers, this can lead to very high penalties.
You can request information about an in-house mobile service from Swisscom here.

Simply select âI am interested as a private individualâ đ
I wish you a nice afternoon.
Best regards
