Re: Verizon Broadband Card

Verizon over WildBlue. As CMoore mentioned, less latency, mobile.

I've never run in to problems with Verizon when I've gone over 5GB/mo. a few times though I'm a Govt. customer which may have something to do with it..

Avoid satellite if you can. You already have the card on the way..Give it a shot, just be mindful of downloads...

Re: Verizon Broadband Card

or better yet, go with Sprint's EVDO (if available), they let you do ANYTHING with their connection (the sole exception is using the connection for web/game serving....not that you'd want to do either with EVDO).

all in all, I get about 100ms ping time to Google, and 150-200 ms latency when playing BF2 online.

bandwidth? 1270-1280k down (max speed if the tower is only backed by one T1 line, Sprint keeps 256k for themselves). and 200-255k upload (this is using the router, which limits the speed [a known issue that Linksys is working one] normally it would be 500-600k up).

it's a great service; I don't have to have a voice plan with them, and I only pay $49.99 a month (SERO). With taxes, the total comes to $50.90; not bad, at all.
