You could try getting a repeater for your home. What materials is your home made of? This as well as trees could impact signal strength.

Poor voice but decent data?
Similarly to tsguy I'd like to know what, if any, obstructions there may be near you; including the materials your home is made of, or if you live in a valley or more rural area....
