so far i have been satisfied with the service. i wouldnt replace my land line dsl with it but i like that i can use it virtually anywhere (i wouldnt recommend it in the shower). the price is pretty much comparable to a land line dsl and cheaper than cable or satellite. the speed does fluctuate, but what can you expect from something susceptible to wireless interference (just like your cell phone). i havent tried setting it up on linux yet, but if/when i do, i will have a walkthrough on my website for it. i dont do macs so someone else will have to do that. on windows you have to install software for it so im not sure about using it with linux yet unless i use wine. anyway, im all around happy with it. be sure to call their support and ask them to remove the sms text messaging from the phone number associated to the account or you will be charged 20 cents per txt you get and i got a couple of spams on it.
