Well are still on a contract? I know when i canceled my service i got 30 some odd dollars back from them. What suppriced me the most was they didnt give me any hassel in canceling, no questions or anything. Maybe they noticed i was on the 4000 hehe

The router and card combo, I just found a window where I get the best signal with my Sprint cell and then found a good location outside for the antenna and 10' of wire limits this. I ran all my wiring from the router with only one PC connected directly to the WRT54G3G-ST and wireless network turned off in the WRT54G3G-ST. I use another Linksys G located at another spot in the house for my wireless with DHCP turned off in that one. But speeds vary to traffic, these have been the best but even the worst seem to be much more pleasurable than Satellite.

I can answer that. Yes -81 is way better than -97. If I remember right -81 is almost ideal.  Very Happy

Not sure how close to the tower I am. Not to many large hills here. But they did say I was in a good location when they sold it to me.  Very Happy I actually get better speeds when it rains. It raises my signal, and actually puts me in a better range of numbers.

Kinda weird.  Like I said, a bit higher is better than what I have.

Not as predictable as sat for problems. Guess it is just getting used to it.
