Things To Know
Cell phones may take some time to
switch to the MicroCell
Your cell phone may not immediately
switch to your MicroCell when you enter
its coverage area. Depending on the
signal strength of the AT&T cell tower, the
time for your cell phone to switch to the
MicroCell can vary. It may take seconds or
up to fi ve minutes.
Connecting to the MicroCell doesn't
always mean unlimited calling
You can purchase AT&T Unlimited
MicroCell Calling for an individual phone
number, your whole account or use your
existing wireless plan minutes. Other
3G or 4G cell phone owners on your
approved user list also use their existing
wireless plan minutes unless they
purchase the Unlimited MicroCell
Calling feature.

You may need to
restart your cell

Calls transfer out, but don't transfer in
Calls transfer from the MicroCell to
the strongest available AT&T cell tower
signal. However, calls initiated on the cell
tower do not transfer to the MicroCell.
With the optional Unlimited

MicroCell Calling feature, calls that
originate on the MicroCell and transfer to
a nearby AT&T cell tower continue on as
unlimited.
Restarting fi xes most problems
Like many electronic devices, the
MicroCell and your 3G or 4G cell phone
may occasionally need to be rebooted
(turned off and back on again) to
reestablish their connection to each
other.
