We use CDMA (Sprint/Verizon) aircards exclusively. We give our users a choice of carriers including AT&T, but it seems the CDMA carriers work best.

User complain about a lot of dead space and non consistent bandwidth. I here the Verizon users at great in the area with nearly no inconsistency with bandwidth. But we use AT&T so I am unsure of the facts. _____ From: N Parr [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, February 02, 2009 1:03 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Mobile Broadband cards / service Using both air cards and tethered BB's on Verizon with a Cisco ASA for VPN and it works just fine for us. Get a demo from each and do some testing. _____ From: Thomas Gonzalez [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, February 02, 2009 11:38 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: OT: Mobile Broadband cards / service So, we have expanded, Cool, now I'm trying to find and compare costs for air cards with service. From what I have started researching, it appears as if AT&T has the coverage in the area I will the air card. With that said, I've looked at 4 providers [at&t, t-mobile, Verizon and sprint]. Are there other providers I'm not aware of? Also, if anyone has experience with this, I want our out base staff to use the CISCO VPN on the air card, what are the pros or cons to using it? I've read about the MTU threshold has to be adjusted to prevent packet loss. And other articles or forums on the air cards with Terminal Server connection is ok. I'm not a Network guru, but I do try my best and just wanted to hear some thoughts.
