    I signed up for home 4G wireless. No matter how much I rearranged the modem or moved it around, I never even got 1mb download, much less the "up to 10mb" that was promised. Ping was actually a decent 50ms, but the download speed was painfully slow.

    Then it took me 45 minutes on the phone to cancel the service and get an RMA for the modem. They hassled me every step of the way to "try tech support" even after I told them I'd already talked to tech support. You can't cancel in an office, you must do it by telephone.

    Promise? Upto? LOL

    Nothing is promised as far as speed. It's always "upto" that's not promising anything just saying you can access the network up to that speed. You also may be on the tower that is overloaded or are two far out to get anything decent.

    Of course nothing is promised, but when the purchase is for "up to 10" and the delivery is "less than 1" there's an unacceptable gap.

    I'm happy so far.

    But I can see the antenna from my window. Still kinda iffy, but until they move better bandwidth via dsl (NO COMCAST), I get fast internet.

    Just hooked up Clear's WiMax home modem yesterday in Boise. Once properly positioned, I have consistent 3Mbit downloads and .7Mbit uploads, and average ping rates at 75 ms. I definitely noticed that moving 10 feet in any direction can greatly diminish transmission speeds and increase ping rates.
