    Does it work? I’d be surprised her phone can transmit loud enough to reach the base station.

      It works great

      Literally able to us the WiFi in a metal barn 50 yards away on the otherside of a garage

      It doesn’t faff about

      Mowing the field at her place my phone will stay connected to the WiFi basically the whole time, the only WiFi blind spot that I had to fix was on the far side of her property where there’s 2 metal barns, a garage, and a wall of her house between you and the broadcast equipment.

      If your antenna is strong enough, you can pick up a lot of lower power devices from a long ways off.
