I'm in princeton, nj and I recently moved into a new place and had no internet for about a week and had my router in client mode grabbing hotspot from my phone and it worked surprisingly well. Of course latency can be a bit jumpy but my speeds overall were better than the neighbors comcast :) I also pulled down about 150gb over that week and each day I was waiting for verizon to pull the plug but it never happened. Speeds were consistently around 20/10.
I looked around but couldnt find any reasonably cheap 4G interface cards for any of the major router vendors otherwise I might have actually considered it as my home needs are pretty basic. chris On Sat, Aug 13, 2011 at 1:54 PM, Ryan Finnesey <rfinne...@gmail.com> wrote: > I was hoping to use LTE for a large number of sites we are about to roll > out > instead of DS1s.
