Not sure what rev means. I am having trouble playing online though?

"If you leave an area with Mobile Broadband 1x EV-DO coverage, and enter an area with 1xRTT coverage, the handover is seamless. You will notice the coverage icon will change from DO to 1X, and the speed will drop from Mobile Broadband speeds, to 1xRTT speeds." from
http://www.fklt.com/faq.php#1.2.4

After checking it seems that your not in an EVDO A area and will probably only experience slower speeds, but steady and no FAP. Also the CDU550 does not have the functionality for connecting a high gain antenna to it.Your problem may be that your only getting 1xRTT speed. sad

Not really...The speed could be better too. Do you have an external antenna?

Well over 50 years  smiley


oh, the EVDO, about 6 weeks of experimenting and firmware for the router. But now it just seems to improve on it's own by using the same tower. Could be it also picked up a little since the leaves fell. lipsrsealed
