AT&T Microcell

[dtc81]

Can anyone confirm that their Lumia 920 works with AT&T's micro cell? I have pretty poor signal at my home (live on the back side of a ridge) and with the micro cell everything works great. Just don't want to go through the process of getting one if it doesn't play nice with the micro cell.

Thanks in advance

I have a microcell in my office. Phone calls, MMS, and SMS work flawlessly on the 920. The iPhone had problems with all of these in the same location.

The microcell shows up as 4G (HSPA+).

Thanks for the info; wife's iphone has always worked well on it. I think they are limited to 3g (at least mine) but none the less we are on wireless while we home anyway.

FYI, the AT&T Microcells wreaked absolute havoc with the batteries in the Lumia 900's. Just murdered them. Well documented. I sold my Microcell because of that....

I can report that my Nokia Lumia seems to be working just fine with my AT&T Microcell whereas the I could not get the SG3 that I had briefly (two days) to work at all.

Confirm with others. No ATT signal at my house. I dropped Verizon for the 920 and found a used Microcell and it works great. Of course, I'd rather not need it but it works very well.

My wife's 920 connected to a Microcell brilliantly for about a month, and hasn't connected since. AT&T first line support has not been able to fix the problem. Waiting for 2nd tier to contact.

We use a Microcell with two 920's and it works, no problem. I can't speak to its effects o battery life though. My 920 never leaves the house as I've deemed to to fragile to use. Wife takes hers everywhere though.
