Don, Concerning antennas, take a look at the article at http://www.evdoforums.com/thread3136.html . This is from the 3gstore.com folks. If you decide to go with EVDO, either Sprint or Verizon, and want to buy a wireless modem. They have USB modems, express card modems and PCMCIA modems. The USB modems would be the most versatile since all or nearly all computers sold nowadays have USB.
Keep in mind that if you are deep inside a building and can't place the external antenna near a window, it may not help all that much. Yes, I would check to see whether the modem you buy has a connector for an external antenna. Again the 3gstore.com people would be able to help you out there. If you decide to go with AT&T instead of EVDO, the antenna article will still be pertinent. The 3gStore doesn't sell AT&T, but you could likely buy one of the antennas they sell from them or someone else and use it as long it has the appropriate connector or you can get an adapter cable (sometimes called a pigtail) for your modem or phone you plan to use as a modem. I think Frank used to sell pigtails and maybe he still does. The modems usually have a 15 day trial period during which you can return it if things don't work out for you. -- Stan Slonkosky --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "SOCALWUG" group.
