1. A method for using a laser to improve wireless signal propagation, the method comprising:
determine a fixed wireless access device is connected to a base station configured to transmit one or more downlink signals and receive one or more uplink signals within a cell;
determine one or more network parameters associated with the connection between the fixed wireless access device and the base station exceeds a predetermined threshold;
determine the fixed wireless access device is within a predetermined distance of the cell edge;
determine an adverse atmospheric condition is occurring along a communication path between the base station and the fixed wireless access device;
communicate an instruction to the laser to emit a first set of one or more pulses during a first laser transmission period at least partially along the communication path; and
communicate the one or more downlink signals from the base station to the fixed wireless access device along the communication path.
