Get an old phone or a cheap one and let it sit in your flat all the time plugged into the wall. Some slightly oder phone with a worn out battery from ebay or something. You can even amplify the signal from that phone via repeater or something
Doesn't fix the poor signal I get in my region 🙁
Aaah, I get where the misunderstanding is coming from. Smartphones can often relay Wifi as well. Mine (Xiaomi, had the same thing with Samsung and Huawei though) will stay connected to the wifi it's on and open up a hotspot.
