As far as a "booster" goes, it sounds like this is a simple range extender for your home router---it does you no good out and about. Depending on your home design and location of your router, you might need one to cover your whole home. But be careful to understand the various encryption protocols and use a strong password, otherwise anyone within a few hundred feet could tap into your network. You might be safe from your neighbors, but their grandkids could be into your personal files in about 30 seconds!
I think you may be confusing a wifi booster with a cell phone booster. You don't use your router for cell phone calls unless you are using the wifi option on your phone. I think cell phone providers have boosters to enhance your cell phone signal and they don't have anything to do with your wifi router.
