@Bob Eh, might be a problem if you're close, yeah. But the "identifying" signals in LTE are designed to be very clear and easily detected over tons of interference
Most of Europe uses the same frequencies by the way, we've harmonized on band 20, band 3, and band 7.
So yeah, the absolute maximum range of a "normal" LTE transmitter with a typical consumer phone would be would be able to get signal would be something like 250,000-500,000km.
(That's at 800Mhz, use a lower frequency = get more signal too)
Err, not 250-500
25,000-50,000km.
If you stuck satellite dishes at either end (e.g. ~50-60dB total gain instead of 22dB) you'd gain another 100x the distance.
Gotta love inverse square law and friis path loss...
@Bob Well microwave basically doesn't go through solid things
But a very very rough rule of thumb is you lose like 100dB per metre of building material
So two or three solid walls will pretty much block any mobile signal. In reality, gaps like windows, vents, etc. allow signal to bounce through rather than going directly via solid brick/concrete so in practice you can still receive signal indoors
But in practice most of the signal you get indoors isn't coming in a straight line through the wall from the transmitter, but rather coming through any gaps available and bouncing off the interior walls
For the same reason, covering your phone or spinning around in a city doesn't make a huge difference to your reception, whereas doing the same in the countryside can easily take you from full signal to zero
Aaaanyway, enough of that. I have servers that need to be set up and girls need to be ogled.
@Burgi It appears @qasdfdsaq is blocking @Burgi as far as I can tell. I'm also blocked (except when I'm not because I get a response). I haven't blocked anybody. So it's all very confusing :)
Of course the correct terminology is ignored, but that's just nit-picking.
@DavidPostill And that sort of argumentative bragging is why you're blocked. Nobody asked you to change your name, and the internet didn't exist before I was born. Check your facts.
@jokerdino Of course. In pretty much real time. Kind of defeats the purpose of blocking. Especially when continuing to make a fuss about who is or is not blocked and any confusion arising therefrom :)
@Burgi Have a beer on me and enjoy being ignored. Take consolation in the fact that "ignore" comes from being "ignorant" :)

ignore (v.) 1610s, "not to know, to be ignorant of," from French ignorer "be unaware of" (14c.), or directly from Latin ignorare "not to know, be unacquainted; take no notice of, disregard" (see ignorant).
hello i am backing up my PC for first time so which folder should i backup where i will get my all downloads , and should we copy heavy folders like C:\Windows
@ramsay I wwould remove the HDD (or SSD) before handing in the laptop. And that might even be recommended by the repair people (I know Lenovo did recommend shipping without HDD and without battery).
@Mokubai Back in my day we were happy to feed to pigeons just to get more bandwidth
Unless you activated that beep which indicates you have another incoming call and that you can switch to that. What is that called in English, call-waiting ?

Well whaddya know. Using a server that's basically four times more powerful makes remote desktop feel a lot more responsive, despite having double the latency.
The previous company I worked at for 6 months is named ISIS. It was founded way before the terrorist organization of course, and now it is a bad coincidence that I list ISIS as work experience on my CV.
I am afraid of this name affecting my future job applications as the name ISIS is associated ...
Somehow managed to register my router with myNETGEAR twice. Had to contact NETGEAR support, got an email response within a few hours saying they'll remove the duplicate registration within one to two days.
I'm used to seeing much slower responses from email/online support requests. This experience reflects positively upon their support team.
Actually, it took just one hour to get a human response from the support team. Very impressive.
