Re: wireless, but you must use wires???

I would guess by Portable they mean that your connection to the network is portable. It's just a cell call away from anywhere you can plug the modem in. That has some advantages.

It is portable to some extent. I have friends with Clearwire and they use the same modem. The modem and a wireless router can be powered off a car cigarette lighter and you have an instant mobile WiFi hot spot as long as you stay in the coverage area.

why would they call it wireless if all 3 wires are being used to plug into the modem?
