    not sure if this is on right area, but here goes. I have my caravan on a season pitch. I have very patchy mobile data. Just wondering if there is any way of boosting signal, to potentially be able to use Netflix etc and get messages on my phone.

    Mobile repeater for voice/data on your mobile phone or mobile router/SIM for data to your devices.

    Ask everyone you know in the area over for a cuppa at some stage and see if anyone has better mobile coverage than you. If one network is much better than others it's worth your while switching if you can.

    There are great routers out there that will make the most of a mobile signal to give you WiFi. That will give you WhatsApp / Facebook / Signal messages, but SMS may not work well.


    What part of the country and what network are you on. Can't really advise without some details!
