Signal booster

Mrupsidedown

The signal to inside my house is abysmal since 3G was switched off.
The house is at the base of a 60m high ridge and the nearest mast is on top of the ridge, about a mile away.
I have to walk into the garden about 20metres to get a decent signal, so the ridge does not impede the signal.
Signal boosters are advisable to improve the signal into a house assuming the signal reaches the house, which it does not.
I have a shed, (15 metre from the house) I could base a signal booster on the roof, but not sure if the signal would then bounce into my house?
Or is there another way, different phone?
Tried EE and worse signal.
Vodafone and Motorla G9, text and calls mainly. Mobile allows WIFI calls but make no difference, not checked the router (Draytech Vigour) settings though.
Thank you for any advice.

Wifi calling should give you a full signal via your broadband. Maybe check it's setup properly.

As above, the answer is WiFi calling.

Assuming OP has BB 🤷‍♀️

OP has a Draytek Vigor router, which would normally be used with broadband.

I guess you could use it as a local WiFi file and print server but that would be unusual.

Thank you for your help. Not been on here a while. I'll check the router settings and/or swap it for an old one.
