Worth a call to your cell company as well, maybe first. I have a metal roof and no signal, a teeny bit of signal outside. I ordered a yagi antenna, pointed it everywhich way for hours and couldn't gain anything. Called our cell provider, they sent a tech out to our land and we are in a "dead zone". Based on {lack of} population density, they aren't likely to fix this for me anytime soon. Still for alot of people, the $30 antenna approach is workable. Some companies also offer a version which does not need a ground plane, it is intended for other applications like boats. Good Luck
