"5GB cap, speeds do not reach 3.1mbps or near it."
"Good alternative for dial-up, but watch for the low cap."

Without DSL or Cable services in my area I have tried Satellite but found it's latency to be unreasonably high. I thought that I was doomed to spend the rest of my time here without broadband. One day I found out that Sprint offered EV-DO service in my area.

| Sprint mobilbroadband Yes, I agree with you, i have the sprint Evo broadband card also. I would have to say its not like the speeds of cable at around 5 or 6 MBP, but i say its better! However you can't take comcast or any wire based service any where you go and still be able to get streaming media and actually play on line games. I can even access internet while on the road in my car.. I tried verizon also and chose Sprint. I did have a problem with the sprint card on my HP Pavilion DV5040US. I got a blue screen alot. I think it was due to power out put through the card slot. To fix this you need to update your bios..Problem will be fixed after that. 
Enjoy the freedom of sprint mobile card.. jayf1965 | |
