   THEORETICAL question (not a legal question!):   
      
   Given there are *huge* gains to be made in cellular signal strength...   
      
      
   Q: Would T-Mobile *know* if I *moved* the femtocell and/or repeater to a   
   different location altogether than my own house?   
      
      
   I live in the Santa Cruz mountains, where all cellular carrier signal   
   sucks, and I have a big house ... hence, my cellular carrier, T-Mobile,   
   provides me a free femtocell, and since my Internet comes from about 5   
   miles away over the air via WISP from another mountain, T-Mobile also gave   
   me a free cellular repeater.   
      
   Here's a picture of the repeater and femtocell:   
      
      
   Here is a picture of just one of my many access points inside my house:   
      
      
   Given that there is unquestionably a *huge* signal strength advantage:   
      
      
   The question came up in another discussion by "The Real Bev" whether the   
   repeater or femtocell can "realistically" be "moved" to a second or third   
   location.   
      
      
   Ignoring the legality, since, as I recall, T-Mobile made me agree verbally   
   over the phone that I would inform them if I move them, and knowing that   
   the output of both transformers are 12VDC at 1.5 and 2.0 Amps, the question   
   is *theoretical* only!
