will e Posted Wednesday at 05:05 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 05:05 PM I live where there is no cellphone functionality; the cell signal strength is about -120db. Cellphones will detect my router's wi-fi signal, but (I believe) due to the fact that the cell signal I am able to receive does not have the "LTE" component, cellphones will not give satisfactory performance. Is there a method to utilize Starlink in combination with some other technology, as a workaround? Any insight would be appreciated. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarlinkLeader Posted Thursday at 10:19 PM Share Posted Thursday at 10:19 PM Hi @will e Some cell providers and cell phones support " WiFi Calling " Wi-Fi calling is a feature that allows you to make and receive calls and texts over a Wi-Fi connection, instead of using your mobile network. It's useful when you have poor mobile coverage or no coverage. You can then use any WiFi to do phone calls across rather than over cell. I'd reach out to your mobile/cell provider to check if they support WiFi Calling. I currently use WiFi Calling across starlink ( at major events ) and it works perfectly. Hope this helps.

TomWS Posted 22 hours ago Share Posted 22 hours ago Google Fi provides service via WiFi and, this, coupled with Starlink, works well for me and my wife's phones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
