3g signal outside house, no signal inside - old house.

I'm in the Chicago area so obviously have coverage.  However, as soon as I get inside the house the signal is practically non-existant.  It switches between 3G with no bar, and 1x with one bar.  The house is old so there shouldn't be any high-tech insulation blocking the signal.  Anyone have any ideas?

But it could be interference from old wiring, What about others devices and being in your house

    I am using Ni USb6211 DAQ to get a signal inside the computer, but the signal displayed as blocks of samples and I need contiuous signal display, I mean instance signal. Could you please help me?

    They are medical signals and the synchonization is important.

  • How to SEE and USE Pulse Counter Output signal INSIDE my VI?????

    Hello.
    I am using a 6216 AOM board and I currently need to generate a 50 kHz signal for an external AOM, and this has been no problem.
    However, I also need to be able to SEE and USE this signal in my VI
    (for example, to be able to view the signal in a graph, and more
    importantly, to be able to use the signal as an input for a software
    based Lock-In Amplifier).
    How can I do this?
    I've been reading about routing signals and I believe I can do this,
    however, the routing does not solve the problem that I need to be able
    to see and use the signal inside my software.
    Please help!
    Sincerely
    JSL

    HI JSL!
    When you route the signal, you can “see” in an input channel the signal been generating by the output channels being routed, but you need to create the code for the acquisition and this code must have synchronization (start trigger and same sample rate) with the generation code. Then we can use it.
    If this is what you need, please let me know so that we can work on generating a little example. Can you give me more details about how is the signal (sample rates, etc.)?
    Please let me know in case I misunderstood your problem.

    I am writing a book and need to have the margins alternating left and right pages, so that there is sufficient margin for the binding. I have tried different inside and outside margins, the same inside and outside margins, facing pages, changing the master, and I cannot get the margins to alternate at print time. The larger margin is always on the left. Can anyone please help me on this, as I have spent hours and lots of ink.

    Set up as facing pages with a larger inside margin.

  • No 4g signal inside of my workplace.

    I sit next to the window and can see the tower outside but cant get 4g service inside. But if i step outside I get full bars.... Any idea what is up with the service?

    -75 dBm is a good signal, but are you sure that is the 4G LTE signal or the CDMA signal? I know the signal number listed in the About phone > status on the Tbolt is the CDMA signal only.
    Try this application to get both signal strengths.

  • [SOLVED] UEFI Variables outside chroot environment, not inside?

    I am installing Arch onto a UEFI system that has had Arch on before; previously it was installed on a seperate disk from Windows and selecting in the UEFI boot sequence which hard drive I wanted to boot from each time. This time I am setting it up on the same hard drive as Windows 8.1 to enable dual-boot.
    I have disabled fast boot and secure boot in the UEFI configuration screen.
    I am booting from the latest Arch ISO on cd and have all UEFI variables listed outside of the chroot environment.
    after
    # arch-chroot /mnt /bin/bash
    # efivar -l
    I get
    bash: efivar: command not found
    Inside the chroot environment I then
    # modprobe efivarfs
    efivar -l
    bash: efivar: command not found
    # mount -t efivarfs efivarfs /sys/firmware/efi/efivars
    mount: efivarfs is already mounted or /sys/firmware/efi/efivars busy
    efivarfs is already mounted on /sys/firmware/efi/efivarfs
    I have seen two other posts in the forums with this issue yet their solutions do not work in this instance.
    I attempted to to finish the install off previously even though the uefi variables weren't loaded properly inside the chroot and it didn't boot (using rEFInd, I have previously tried Gummiboot and Grub, no dice). I know enough to get into trouble but not enough to fix it...any ideas.
    Edit:
    Head_on_a_Stick wrote:
    Try
    # pacman -S efivar
    inside the chroot environment, then efivar -l
    That fixed it; IIRC it's not mentioned in the Wiki that that might be the case. It does say to "Make sure efivars is mounted" prior to installing the bootloader; mine was but I couldn't list the variables or sucessfully install until I installed efivar inside the chroot.

    Have you tried just using efibootmgr?
    Try
    # pacman -S efivar
    inside the chroot environment, then efivar -l (although I think this may be included in the base package when using pacstrap).
    If you have /sys/firmware/efi on the system then it is already in EFI mode...

  • How to show an 'outside man' to be 'inside a grave'?

    I have need to show this in the present video project I am working on. I want to show a grave [say a white colored box lying overground in a  cemetery] and a man lying on the ground beside the grave. In the video it should appear as if the man is lying inside the grave.
    Thanks in advance.

    In principle, any color can be used, but the color of the background must be different enough from the subject.
    In this case, I think it would be very hard to key out the background, because it is too similar to skin tones and part of the t-shirt.
    Know about adjusting opacity but know next to nothing about blending.
    I know next to nothing about blending, also... but it is very easy to experiment. Just try different modes.

  • I got water into the outside (and possibly the inside joint)

    So I had my Macbook Pro on a table opened at about a 120 degree angle and water spilled behind it and I saw a little come in the inside joint. I tried turning on and it started the fan. I turned it off afterwords. It is now sitting like a teepee on top of a towel. I tried once again turing it on but the fan started so I turned it off. Right now it is sitting in some rice.  Any help? Price estimates if I need to get it repaired would be appreciated.

    Ouch, thats the worst thing you could do,......... when water comes in the back, and rests in the fan blades, when its turned on it throws liquid thru the logic board like a sprinkler system. Ouch.
    dont continue make the mistake many do, they turn it back on, the liquid migrates here and there, damage compounds.
    A damage leads to B, leads to C, and damage snowballs (seen it often).
    Like forcing a man with a bad twisted ankle to run, eventually he rips a muscle and then breaks a leg.
    .....turning back on a computer after such an incident is analogous to doing same.

  • Quicktime ok outside Iphoto but nok inside !

    Hello,
    I upgraded last week Iphoto to version 9.1.5. (Ilife 11)
    In my previous Iphoto, all the imported videos (small MPEGS) were opened in a separate window and the quality was perfect.
    After the upgrade, videos are now opened directly into Iphoto but quality is very bad (scrolling is not fluid). Sound is ok.
    When I export videos outside Iphoto and open with Quicktime, VLC...everything is perfect...si \\o there is a problem with iphoto i suppose
    I also tried to download the quicktime version privided with snow leopard but same problem...
    My Mac is Intel Core 2 Duo 2,4 GHz with 4 Go of memory and Snow Leopard (Mac OSX 10.6.8) is installed. It should be ok I think.
    When opening the videos from VLC outside Iphoto, it's ok. The only problem is when I read videos with Iphoto...
    Do you have an ideo of what's going on? What could I do please?
    Thanks a lot for your help !

    It could be the case connectors that go to the mainboard headers. Button stuck or defective or some wire grounding out. Might double check the JFP1 & 2 connections are secure & in the right positions. Also, maybe test in the case with all the case connectors not attached to the mainboard.
    Power and reset button are stuck. The jpf connections seemngood though. I was nerveous to  try the short methodbas my hands are a bit unsteady. Removed the i9po shield completley for testing sake.I tightened up the stand off screws. Tried again. No luck. Bit confused why it gives 5 error beeps though for a short.

  • Enhancement Request: Re-enable 4G if I have a Wi-Fi signal

    Now, you may say that this is totally counter-intuitive, as if you have a Wi-Fi signal, what do you need 4G for?  But (and please correct me if I'm wrong) 4G is not just for data, but also for voice.
    *If* that is true, if you are connected to a Wi-Fi hotspot, hopefully not all of the battery life will be sucked out of your phone through data-centric actions that your phone does, as it should be delegated to Wi-Fi.  At least that has been my experience.
    Then you could turn on 4G because that would increase the chances (I think) of my phone calls actually staying connected while I talk in my apartment building in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn.
    If this makes absolutely no sense, just tell me so.  Otherwise, let me know if you think it would make sense as an enhancement request for the Galaxy Nexus for some future update.
    Thanks

    The theory behind WiFi and Verizon network, is that if you have WiFi turned on, all data will be routed through it, instead of Verizon's Network. It has to work that way to give people a chance to not use their data allowance while in a WiFi area. WiFi is also a more stable network for data, since you mostly have a better signal inside a structure than the 3g/4g network outside the structure.
    I use WiFi at home most of the time, even though I have an unlimited data plan (yes, my data plan is grandfathered). While I have a decent signal outside my home, the interference inside my home, causes my data signal to degrade almost to a point of no signal in parts of my house. My Droid X also was affected by this, so I use WiFi for data inside my house.
    Since the voice portion of the phone uses the CDMA network, I have no problems with getting phone calls with WiFi enabled.

  • Signal has gotten progressively worse

    I have been with Verizon a little over a year now and from what I can say, the signal inside of my house has gotten worse since last year. When I signed up I had steady 4G LTE signal indoors. Now it's a guessing game with every kind of signal. Every time I go to pull my phone out of my pocket I am more likely to have 1x or 3G or no data and no bars. The signal switches so much that its sometimes hard to use basic data functionality or even send a text message because the phone is switching between data services.
    Several times a day I am greeted with no data. There are some days when I have absolutely nothing for a good 10 minutes. By nothing I mean no data and no signal bars. Text messages and phone calls cannot happen in those 10 minutes. I have had people calling me and saying my phone went straight to voice mail or said it was ringing and I didn't pick up. Problem is, I never heard the phone ringing nor did I see the phone change over to the incoming call screen when I had it out on the table. The same goes for sending text messages. The sending icon (green arrow) stays on for a long time and then it's finally sent or it never gets sent because of the phone switching between data services.
    The lack of the phone ringing or text messages being sent has cost me money. I run a package store with my family and have to place weekly orders with sales reps and when they say they called and my phone never rang there is a problem. The same goes for texts since some never got sent I couldn't text the order. It's quite a cut throat business in the sense that if I don't have product then the customers will just walk out and go up or down the street and that makes my business look bad and that affects income to pay our bills like my phone bill from Verizon. My apartment is in the same building as the business so even there I have seen the signal become worse.
    My phones are 4 DROID RAZRs and they all have troubles with signal. As a result of poor signal the Internet is barely usable and the phones are questionably reliable to make calls and send texts. The battery life is also horrible, I have to charge my phone twice a day because somehow I lose 10% battery life in a half hour even though I sometimes don't use the phone during that span of time. The same goes for the other phones. My younger brother's phone gets so hot to the touch that it slows down significantly and he has to set it down for a good half hour. My parents also have the same problems with heat. Since they have become more relaxed any my brother and I have become more active in the business they use their phones for other things. My dad uses pandora and complains that it cuts out because the phone was switching between data services. My mother watches youtube videos and says they always take forever to load. They also spend lots of time calling their family members and they complain of their phones getting too hot and the batteries dying too quickly. We have wifi but it is only usable within the immediate range of the router (the back office) not where we need it.
    We have spent hours on the phone with Verizon only to become more frustrated. We have tried device swaps because of the signal and charging port issues on our phones. We have also gone through several SIM card changes. Sometimes I'll even pick up a phone off contract from best buy to test the signal strength with a newer device. We've done everything from factory data resets to running safe mode. Nothing improves reception. The only sure fire way to improve reception is to not touch the phone and set it down on a table because when it's picked up the signal drops from 4 bars to 1 bar. Even idle it will switch services and we have all had the phone hot sitting in our pockets and having 1x or no data and no bars. It would have been nice to consider getting my family new phones in October of this year but I guess Verizon decided to change their upgrade policy so now I have to wait until March 2014 but I don't think our phones will last that long.
    I never had this problem before with Verizon but now it's a part of every day life meanwhile I have to foot the bill. Why has my signal gotten worse? It used to work fine and have excellent reliability now Verizon is becoming like AT&T in my store which flat out does not work because there is no service inside. I don't know what to do in this case because we can barely use our phones. Our usage has gone down across the board especially data since the signal type switches with a mind of its own.

    I came here to search for answers to the same problem.
    Although I have iTunes on a Mac the symptoms are similar.
    Everything video played perfectly in iTunes before the last round(s) of iTunes updates. Now I have problems with jerky playback.
    I installed more RAM as the program is now so cumbersome it struggles without it. This helped the sluggishness of iTunes but not the video playback.
    They play perfectly in the Quicktime Player program itself, so the problem lies within iTunes and an answer needs to be found.

  • How can I get my iphone to stop losing the signal?

    How can I get my iphone to stop losing the signal?

    Thanks for the tip.  If only I could find somewhere where I did not lose the signal.
    I am based in the United Kingdom. The carrier is Orange.
    I lose the signal inside buildings and outside of buildings.  It happens at work and at home.  It happens in Centarl London in the open air and inside.  It happens in small towns.. It happens in the countryside.  It happens in motor cars.  It happens in airports.  It happens when the battery is fully charged, when it is half charged and when it's low on charge.  It happens using the phone, when reading messages and when using the internet.
    Hope this helps.

  • Bionic lte signal booster

    I was wondering is there a signal enhancer or booster that i can use to help push a lte signal from outside to inside. Im in a building where when i step outside i get good lte signal when inside it swicths to 3g. Is there any good device that will help me do this thats kinda cheap? Im in newport news va at the shipyard needing a stronger signal near peir

    Congratulations on getting the new bionic!  That is such a great device!  As far as increasing your 4g signal inside, at this time we do not offer any accessories that would help with this.  If you need further support and info with 4g click here for our website.  I hope this helps.  Thanks.

  • I get no wireless signal in my home, so need a network extender for the Lumia 2520.  Specs indicate LTE FDD network:Band 20 (800MHz), Band 3 (1800 MHz), Band 7 (2600 MHz). Does Verizon offer a network extender that will work with the Lumia?

    I get no wireless signal inside my home, only outside, so I need a network extender that will work for the Lumia 2520, Specs indicate it uses LTE FDD netork Band 20 (800MHz), Band 3 (1800MHz), Band 7 (2600 MHz).  Does Verizon offer a network extender that will work with the Lumia 2520?

    We want to make sure you get service in your home Astromandata! I can check your area to see if you qualify for the network extender. What's your zip code?

  • Cell signal degradation

    I have experienced significant signal degradation over the course of the last few months. It is to the point where i no longer have a signal inside my home. Many other Verizon subscribers in the area have voiced the same concern. We used to have superb service but now we are all suffering!!! Zip code is 35761. Can someone point me to where i need to file an official complaint/inquiry?

    I have an iPhone 5s, as do most others in the community that are experiencing the same degradation. I have had reports from 13 other people that I would assume all connect to the same local tower. There is definitely an issue. I certainly wouldn't deem it an outtage but it is significant enough that many of us are considering switching to another company as we no longer have coverage inside our homes.
