A word of caution. Granted my experience with this was back in F8, but the one time I tried to use something like this was with Sprint. They provided the driver, but I didn't find out until I signed up for their "free" trial (that ended up costing me $36) and then got access to the documentation that the Linux driver only works at 500MB/s. Full 3G speed was only supported under Windoze. As always, the devil is in the details. I am happy to see that there are at least some 3G options that appear to support full speed under Linux now. --Greg -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
