I have been having problems lately with my verizon wireless aircard.
it will drop signal, it will fail to connect, and it will say there is no signal in areas that signal was good.
I travel a dedicated route and used to be able to stream radio from buffalo ny to lancaster pa, without a problem, now I can barely surf the net.
I called verizon, of course they claim no problems. My father is experiencing similar problem but he never leaves home.
My father uses newer usb modem, I use pcmia modem.
I ordered a NEW pcmia card, as updating to usb would limit me to 5gb per month, I am an old customer I get the old unlimited plan. i still have same card I had 4 years ago, it is beat up, so I am hoping new card will rectify the issue.
Anyone else having troubles?

I have not had any problems but i have one of the netbooks with the built in broadband card.

I had problems similiar to yours and thought it was my fault. I called Verizon and the tech worked on trying to get things right and then told me that it was the card. I got a new one, free, the latest version and so far... Knock on wood, its been better than ever. They advertise that anywhere there is cell coverage that the card will work there.

I used to have them and when they change to fio's, forget it.I had verizon for years until last year.Verizon is the worse company to have for anything these days.

Lately the last few weeks something happened.
I am waiting for the new card which should arrive tomorrow, then we will see.

probalby wont help.. but Verizon has sold all its residential services to another company called Frontier i believe. probably not the reason for the issues you guys are having but who knows.
i know the company i work for has alot of complaints from customers that we've acquired in the last year or so that used to have another provider(cable services) -
I have a USB760...no problems with mine.
And about the 5GB limit...I'm on the internet more than anyone should be and I never go over 4GB in a month. That includes downloading music, YouTube, moderating a forum, visiting about 5 other forums, using Google satellite maps to verify directions, chatting with my family via Skype (with video), etc., etc. -
Ah oh, my aircard was doing that a bit too. I'll pay more attention to it now. The other day it was switching between all the different connections it gets every few seconds for no reason.
They probably oversold their bandwidth like all these greedy companies do.
