without buffering and eating up your data plan? In an apartment I had in 2007 I decided to not have fixed HSI, so all I had was my Sprint PCMCIA EVDO-A card, and I also bought a Linksys router that would accept the card and re-transmit as Wi-Fi. My Roku box had no issues streaming to my standard def TV at the time--tho I was almost always watching a 1 or 2 dot quality picture instead of a 3 dot. The buffering was surprisingly minimal, maybe 10 seconds as opposed to the current 5 seconds I deal with for HD streams and my 25/25 FIOS connection. I never went over 5GB in a month, tho I was on Sprint's actual unlimited plan at the time--the only reason to go with Sprint vs. Verizon in fact was that they offered true Unlimited. Close to my experience but I don't have any hi speed to compare with. You used a Roku box where I use a Directv supplied Cisco to talk to my wifi. |

| We have a character down the street that modified his microwave to run with the door open with a tin foil reflector. If he aims it our way it raises hell with our wi-fi. As usual the FCC don't give a crap sooooo.. I'm on hard wire with this computer and the laptop is running at 5 GHz so it don't bother us too much anymore..

Hey There, Voter! Do you remember that on Inauguration Day (Jan 20th) 2009, the national average for a gallon of gasoline was about $1.78? How's that "Hope & Change" working out for you? Anyone But Obama Nov. 2012.

Just why would someone do this? There has to be more to this story. |

Just the typical argument that comes up when a rural airport wants to expand and some jackass thinks he can cause hate and discontent by fouling up RF communications. There are deformed people that have nothing better to do around here..
