It's so weird, and probably telling, that I get so much satisfaction from seeing a company ACTUALLY provide service. Like, man, how do you get so lucky

[ncasale]

I worked at the iCloud server build for Apple in North Carolina and they put something like this in that building. Without it, cell service did not exist.

[avroarchitect]

Linus has turned his tech channel into a home improvement channel. I'm ok with this

[PajakTheBlind]

Here in Europe we make buildings out of concrete and bricks. This is the first time I've heard of cellular coverage issues in a building not in the wilderness for over 15 years.
Still, this was quite an informative video.

[JDumbroski]

It would be great if you could give a summary of the tech upgrades you would recommend in homes. Most smart-home tech can get complex once you add a lot of brands and some tech is gimmicky. Seeing what you may do for average consumers would help.

Imagine being a realtor trying to explain the additions to this house to a potential buyer if Linus decided to sell the house.

"Why are there outlets 8feet up the wall in each of the 4 corners in the living room?"

"Oh that's in case you wanted to install base stations for a VR headset"

"Okay and what does this one of twenty electronic wall panels do?"

"Oh that one lets you know if your shark fin is pointed in the right direction".

Huge props to whoever did the editing of this one for doing such a good job on the blurring! Must have been tricky/tedious considering things moving around the shot

[Timi]

Linus: Complains about actual floors and buys a cell repeater.
Me, living in Germany: Yeah, even those are illegal here :(

[ebsolas]

Waveform is awesome. We ended up switching our ISP from the local monopoly to Tmobile and... well we had service issues. Ended up finding Waveform and getting an antenna to hook up directly into the Tmobile provided 5g router. Never actually called their customer service, but from their packing materials I was impressed by their level of care shown in their instructions and online resources.

[dawidszyszko]

It is funny to see you guys mentioning concrete as something uncommon. In Europe we don’t have dry walls - our homes are just bricks and concrete so Wi-Fi range is terrible and adding cabling is a nightmare :).

[ModsandHacks]

Linus, you need to make these videos longer. I know your entire subscriber base watches your videos all the way through. We need more content on videos like these.

[shikyokira]

its good to see linus showing us what new tech they are installing and how good the service the company provide

[MrNicoJac]

Hahaha, the Waveform folks are probably fans of LTT.
What an amazing way to advertise the quality of your company and product 👍🏼

[LetsPlayBojangles]

That feeling when working as a tech for a cell company people would just complain about bad indoor signal. If only every customer was like Linus and dropped 3K and a dozen hours on an extensive repeater setup and wire running. What chumps.

[Celsian]

This is probably the most useful LTT video this year for IT people. The number of times I've heard complaints from people who can't use their cellular phone in a new age building is extremely high.

Linus: "Okay, how does it look?"
Jake: "Awful!"
A-tier content

[Ayaneb]

the way jake heckles you, as if he was you son, is just fantastic. I love you and jake being in more videos together with this series. Reminds me just of myself and my dad. Love it.

[HiresMerc]

Waveform has the absolute best customer service! I have never received better from any business in any industry. I installed their Celfi X and they walked me through all issues. I strongly recommend them if you’re looking for a cell boosting solution.

I’m super rural and they recommend the perfect system after we did a bunch of testing. Can’t say enough good things.

[bluebird]

I gotta tell my dad to work with this company in his next house, he’s a general contractor (construction) and he does a lot of sourcing with companies. He’d definitely like this cause he’s talked about alot of houses he’s built not having good cell coverage because here in florida all the houses are fully concrete due to the amount of hurricanes and tropical storms we have.

[jabuki]

I love watching these videos of tech upgrading your home. Keep them coming.
