Now have EVDO with same config. (-75dbm). Something happened but I don't really care as long as I keep receiving EVDO. I can force the UM150 to HSD but no real need.

I'm not sure how Verizon operates their connection managers, but for me it helps prevent (but does not always stop) the modem from switching to 1xRTT mode which is slower with high latency.

Westcliffe is about 8 mi from here and is covered by Alltel. They might have opened up to Verizon users.

I'm with Millenicom, which uses Sprint. I used to be able to pull from an Alltel tower out here. As of last week, I can no longer get that tower.

Says I'm running on auto but not going to change it. Still can't figure why I have rev A unless I am now receiving Alltel. They are the main provider for my nearest town.

Installed the UM150 into my laptop and hooked up to 130/60 with pings over 1000ms. I have lived with those since today. We made a short trip to Durango and was able to hook up at evdo revA :D. Just set my puter up back at home and now get revA 800/371 with 371ms. What happened since Mon. morning. Is there something I am missing with the modem? I see posts about a "ctrl d" menu but it asks for a password that I don't know. Can any one help?
Thanks
