I'm using Millenicom now in Petro lot in Little Rock. Works virtually everywhere I've tried it. I'm impressed with it. When it seems slow I use the double headed cable and it speeds up alot for some reason. Good product.
-
I'm using the Y cable now and it does seem to help. I'm going to do a speed test right now with and without.
I'm getting faster download speeds with the Y cable.
I'm in Warsaw, NC. Using just one prong of the cable I was getting download speeds between 800-1000 kbps. With both plugged in, I'm getting between 1300-1500 kbps. Upload speeds were about the same between 300-400 kbps. -
Would appreciate an update on this service, especially from thos who might be using more than 5 gigs a month on a regular basis. Thanks!

I use nearly 8 gig a month in just The Daily show and Colbert Report downloads, I also download Lost and various podcasts and they have never said a word about it. I wouldn't be surprised is I use over 10 gig a month.

I've only used Millenicom for a couple of months, but both months have exceeded 10 gigs. Coverage is excellent, even out here in rural Missouri.

How does it work for video messaging? I need a service that works well for that so I can talk to my wife and 2month old daughter.

I used to stream my webcam on my dash while going down the road using Sprint Mobile Broadband...worked just fine.

To answer others' questions about WoW usage. WoW doesn't use that much bandwidth, if you use Titan Panel's performance meter it shows you how much kb/s it is tx/rx. Mine usually hangs around 0.045 kb/s out and 0.340 kb/s in

I am going to post here so I can find this one fast. May want to do this.
