| [Troubleshooting] Anyone use a teathered phone for "broadband?"
Been on Alltels teathered "broadband" for a couple years-We use a Razr and have a cyfre booster directly connected to the phone and antenna. Signal strength shows 4-5 bars EV
Speed test is usually .24 Mb/s Never very fast for sure, but slightly better than dialup.
The biggest issue, besides slow speeds (compared to what some of you get!) is disconnects.
It will randomly disconnect and show alerts:
The modem has unexpectedly hungup.Please verify your settings and try again."
"The seletcted communication device does not exist. Please verify your settings and try again."
But, the phone is still on, all settings are fine and nothing was changed. Sometimes, overnight, it will stay connected for 14 hrs straight. When in use, it may only stay connected for a few minutes, then maybe 1/2 hr, then? Just random periods of time. I know other Alltel; users around here who have the same disconnect issues. Any ideas?
