i just found out that it is on in franklin va but im just outside of coverage area for home fusion. The vzw coverage maps says i'm in the extended 4g coverage. When i checked for homefusion at my addy it said no coverage available. Maybe when they put it n the boykins tower it will work in my neck of the woods as it is a little closer to me. |

| lol if i go 2-4 miles in basically any direction coverage is available. |

oh will vz erect new towers to cover dead zones? If they want to get everyone off of copper and on to wireless want they have to? |

| That's good to know. I ask because i have a tower like 13-14 miles away and 1 that is like 9-10. Between the 2 i get fringe coverage. A town called newsoms is like 6 miles from me so i'm hoping vz will put a tower these in the near future as it's only like 6 miles away. |

we went here instead of with home fusion. it was no contest. $70/mo instead of $130/mo for 20gb limit, $99 for the mifi device w/o contract instead of $269 & NO 2 yr agreement.

I am in an unoffical 4G area that isn't listed on the coverage yet, so you may want to find someone with a LTE phone and ask is they could check your area out for you. You might already have coverage and don't know it. |

not sure if it's relevant but my 3g phone works some of the time but more times then not it does't. I usually have to go outside and find the sweet spot as i like to call it. |

same here, I'm not in Verizon's coverage area according to their maps but I still get it via Millenicom's Hotspot plan:

HF is 30GB/ month for $120/ month not 130. And 20GB is 90/month |

sorry for the confusion, i wasn't comparing hf with millenicom. i was comparing millenicom hotspot plan to verizon hotspot plan. the verizon hotspot plan is $130+taxes/mo, plus the gift of a 2 yr contract. in addition, if you go month to month with verizon's hotspot plan (like millenicom), the mifi costs $269 instead of $99 with millenicom.
for me, home fusion was never in the running once i read a few dozen reviews. and again, the contract pricing was ridiculous. millenicom from what i found, was easily the best value for anyone with limited choices. |
