Re: Antenna and Tower Questions

If you do not have the modem set in EVDO only mode you could very possibly be connecting to a 1xRTT tower whose signal strength is stronger than the more desirable EVDO.
Or, if you have it set to EVDO only, you STILL could be connecting to a 1xRTT tower anyways, regardless of your settings. Stupid Franklin...

But yeah, +1 on Jim_in_VA. The Millenicom Franklin modem will connect to whatever is available, be it RTT or EVDO, regardless of provider. It has a preference for Sprint though.. if its available, even at a low low signal, it will lock onto that before anything else.

·Sprint Mobile Broa..
·HughesNet Satellit..

That gets me wondering. I wonder if Sprint turned down the Franklin because of those issues you just mentioned and Franklin quit manufacturing them, selling what they had already made to Millenicom and ceasing manufacturing.

Just speculating, of course.
