The phone has to be on the unit so it is hands free or headphones but bluetooth works well.
A Telstra dongle also works if run up a pole so will get details as well next time I go back.
OK, thanks. The site has now clamped down on range extender devices except the model I have as its Telstra approved - quite a few pissed off people however their devices were causing havoc about the site, so I guess they deserve to be shut down. If the devices are not removed some sort of disciplinary action is pending.
