Re: Who gives a shit about wireless

Yeah, I live far enought away that anything other than phone lines and power will run out here. Wireless connection would be fine with me. Now I also like to game so I'd LIKE to have something lower than 500ms, I get about 250-900 depending, and that is over 56k! (Good dial-up commpany, Shentel)

If anything like that was out here I'd get it, but yes truly ment for field use.

You possibly could get 1xrtt CDMA or EDGE GSM connection, good for around 150kbps and approximately the same latency, but $$$

Re: Who gives a shit about wireless

1x and 1xrtt are cheap now if you purchase an agreement. I run about 40 megs a day over it on verizon and pay less then $75 a month. But I also have company phones threw verizon as well.

Re: Who gives a shit about wireless

Cheap considering that they are mobile, pricy compared to dialup, dsl or cable. If I was mobile, and had 'good' connectivity at home, I'd be using a datacard or tethered phone. At home, my 26.95 dsl (1500/256) is cheap, and at work, my DS-3 (12 users) is damn fast

Re: Who gives a shit about wireless

no speed tests around can handle my work connection hehe. The ones from the government do but they also don't allow us to run the test.

Re: Who gives a shit about wireless

Ok.. no more fighting on evdo vs. wifi... they are now compatible... or better said... complementary... you can now do evdo sharing over wifi using a small converter router...

»www.wireless-internet-broadband-service.com has them online...
