What is the difference between wireless cell phone signal and wireless internet signal?

Question by jveryrad: What is the difference between wireless cell phone signal and wireless internet signal?
From our dining room, we can see a nearby wireless tower outside the window. Our cell phone signal is good. But our wireless internet signal in the backyard is a bit weak. I suppose the wireless tower is just for cell phones. Am I right? Are the two signals different in frequency, etc?

Yes, generally one refers to a wireless radio signal used by cell phones and broadband "hotspot modems", and the other refers to a signal provided by a Wi-Fi router or access point.

If your wireless router supports additional access points or repeaters, you could buy one and put it on the back side of the house, or if it has separate antennae you could see if longer or higher-power antennae are made for that router.

Answer by clearjordans
Unlocked phones are able to be used on any toher Mobile Carrier other than the Carrier it was made for. The "safe" part Im unsure about. I've never used an unlocked phone before.if the SIM card is active then the unlocked phone should work. Im not totally sure if this will help but I have done some research on Unlocked Phones.

What feature is required to share music between cell phones?

Question by honeygirl0511: What feature is required to share music between cell phones?
I have a Samsung C417 cell phone with bluetooth capabilities. Many of my friends are able to share ringtones with one another, but for some reason I cannot. I'm not sure if my phone is incapable of doing that or if I am not attempting it properly. I am also considering upgrading my phone and am curious about what feature is required in order to share music from cell phone to cell phone.

Whats the difference between pre paid and contract for cell phones?

Question by mia: Whats the difference between pre paid and contract for cell phones?

Answer by Amanda54
With contract you pay a monthly bill and the minuets every month are atomaticly put on there. With most Pre paid phones you have to buy little cards with minutes on it and every time you run out or are just about out of minuets you have to go and buy those cards and call the number on the card a physicaly put the minuets on there. You also don't have to worry about having a huge phone bill to pay each month either. With the pre paid you have just what you put on there and no overages. Also with pre paid you don't have a contract that you have to uphold.
