EVDO

Maybe your card is broken?? Return it and get a new one.

There is something wrong here....

There is something wrong with either you card, or your service, or you have the wrong provider.

1. I would certainly have the card replaced first.
2. I would then MAKE SURE my tower/service is coming from Alltel and that you are not roaming on a different providers system.
3. Once you confirm it truly is Alltel and you are connecting to an Alltel tower, I would then call them and ask them if they are having issues with the EVDO on that tower.

My guess is that by doing the steps above, you will get to the bottom of why you have a decreased speed...

If you do find the issue, and your speeds return, please be sure to come back and "tweak" your review stats....

PRL's

You can get advanced tech support to email you the prl then place the mouse on the big a on axcess mobilelink blue screen then click ctrl D this brings up the activation screen enter 000000 then it brings up another screen just click on the browse near the bottom look for 3 dots next to prl then browse to where you have the prl loaded. When you speak with advanced tech support ask them to email it to you since you may be sitting on a non alltel tower in the datamode and may not get the prl push.

Re: PRL's

Yeah, I did a little searching last night and figured out how to do the PRL update manually, I will keep that in mind for next time.

I did verify that I am on an Alltel tower (Sprint and Verizon both roam on Alltel here), and that the tower is fairly close to my house (1 mile north). There is nothing in terms of terrain in my region...Super-flat, no buildings over two stories for well over 30 Miles in any direction.

My signal when everything is going well is in the -60 to -70 dBm range.

If I put the card in field test mode, it is interesting to watch the 1xRTT and EVDO signals fluctuate. For a few minutes the EVDO signal will be stronger, and then the 1xRTT signal will be stronger...
