I just bought it for one of our sales guys at our work, so he can have internet in his car. Got a power inverter to give the modem and laptop power. Tested it out in different areas of Brantford, Kitchener-Waterloo, and Cambridge. Had pretty good signal. You have to be stopped when your using it though, because it switches from tower (someone was driving when I was on the laptop). It's not mobile internet, doesn't work good for that lol, because of the switching between towers that are closest to it. If your stopped though, your fine.
Works pretty good though. It depends if your close to a tower as to how good the signal will be, but it was pretty decent all around. If your having it in a home, just make sure it's near a window, have the side of the modem with the antenna facing the window, and your usually fine. I used it in our board room at my work, which has lots of windows, and had full signal. It does actually matter which way the modem is facing and where you are. You can turn it around and get a better signal, which you see on the top of the modem as the number of lights lit.
I just got him the Portable Basic for home, fuck the business one. You don't need that shit if your just checking a few sites and email. It's only 125Kbps connection down, but the pages loaded fast as if it was cable basically for the most part $24/month. If it's just for your home stuff though, you will up the download, but then why wouldn't you just get cable? lol. If your actually using it for on the go with a laptop in a car like the reason I got it for, it works fackin slick. I mean, you have internet in the car, for $24/month, it's pretty fast, does what you want it to do. Can't expect much more than that unless you pay out your fackin ass lol.
Your obviously going to up the download speed if your download lots of shit, but for some surfing, and email, it works fackin fine.
