BCam - well... I am there .... currently (I HAD) cable internet, Vonage VOIP phone service whuich is GREAT and a pay as you go TracPhone cell phone.... I need the ability for full time anywhere internet.
I just received my broadband internet device from Sprint - works great, the unit is FREE and the service is $60 month for 5 GB of data -- I could not use that much data throughput in 3 months and I am on the internet 24/7. I just receved my new Cradlepoint MBR1000 from 3g store. FANTASTIC I had my cable modem hooked in to a Linksys wi-fi and had 4 computers attached hard wire and 0ne wi-fi..... NOW I have the same hooked up to the MBR1000 withthe sprint service. Yes it is slightly slower but If I attached an external atenna (I will do once I get the MH I want) I will be fine... no problems now and I wont have more than two computers once we do the FT thing.---
Now I havbe full time wireless internet connection and I also Have my Vonage phones attached to my main computer --- IT ALL WORKS GREAT. So what is my bottom line: I was paying Charter $120 a month for their famous "Bundle" crap, $30 to Vonage for unlimited long distance phone and Trac phone on a pay as I go - about $120 per YEAR.... Now I pay Sprint $60 a month and am able to use my computer just about anywhere (That I will be going anyway) and if I keep Vonage, $30 a month... and of course, Tracphone pay as I go... which I can throw in the trash any time I choose... likely will keep it - I like it......
oh - the MBR1000 cost me 200 - but now its mine - no rental fees...
Cut to the chase, I cut my monthly bill down by $60 and have total freedom --- my laptop on wi-fi even works better because of the level 5 protocol that the MBR1000 uses... an take it 10 campers down and still be on our wi-fi!
Hard wired phone & cable with their high cost and "bundle" games can take a leap!
