Re: Verizon reliable in "marginal areas?" hahahaha

said by Ceryana :



I've had Verizon broadband for 2 weeks now and it truly SUX. My average is 300-400kbs d/l using their newest USB 727 modem.

They told me that I live in a marginal service area and have no plans to update it. I guess they forgot about the tower they installed 5 months ago 3 miles from my location. A major call center of theirs is about 8 miles down the road.

Guess I'll be going back to satellite. At least I was getting much better speeds.
Have you twaeked your settings for the aircard? Have you updated it to make sure it is using the latest correct settings?

 I just got my Verizon 727 USB modem yesterday. I'm in a supposed A area and was told to expect an average of 500-700 kbs. What I've actually gotten (both last night and through out the day today is peaks of 500-700 kbs with such frequent valleys that I'm actually averaging more in the 10-20 kbs range. So how do I tweak it/use the latest correct settings (and yes, I did update the software)? (And before you tell me it's in the manual, the only manual I got was a Verizon specific one, although it mentioned a 727 specific manual that was not in my box.)

@myvzw.com		 p.s. I'm an OS X 10.4 but planning on upgrading to 10.5 toward the end of the month.
