Topic “Dialup”
Broadband Ahoy
24 May, 2007
After nearly four years of being stuck with dial-up internet (no, really — we can’t get DSL or cablemodem service out here in the sticks) I’ve taken the plunge and signed up for Verizon’s EVDO wireless broadband service and ordered a RevA card.
The EVDO signal we get here isn’t the strongest, but it should be enough to get better speeds than 56K dial-up.
If, for some reason, it does not work as advertised, I’ll be interested to see how difficult it is to call them on their “cancel within 15 days with no strings attached” policy.
