For Robert Meyer (or any else who can help)

We have been using the Verizon Aircard with great success.  It's not as fast
as cable, but considering it works almost anyway our car or boat go, as well
as home, it's great.

Can you tell exactly how you are able to share among more than one computer?
I have not been able to do that.

Thanks,

Bob

Google "router aircard" and you get lots of hits

Put the lime in the coconut - not thats not right - put the aircard in
the router and drink it right up.  You may check your VZ contract
because I thought that using your service like this may violate it.
How thy know how you are set up is a mystery. I have herd that if you
use A LOT of bandwith VZ will come a calling to investigate.

We have been using our Verizon WWAN (wireless wide area network)
otherwise called an "air card" for about a year now.  We have
UNLIMITED ACCESS and have not had anyone come a calling - we use the
card for both business and personal use, so we use a great deal of
air time - NO PROBLEM.  Have not had any experience with using two
computers on the same air card at the same time, but can easily
switch the card from one laptop computer to the other (same operating
system on both).

So, far we have only had a lack of service in Pennatangushine and
Huntsville, Ontario Canada and in Branson, MO.  Otherwise it has
given us BroadBand speeds in a lot of places and NationalAccess
speeds everywhere else -- even in some remote places.

Bob & All,
I am looking at the Verizon Aircard and have seen at Best Buy, Frys, Etc
a router that accepts the Verizon Aircard. It's a Dlink DIR-450 (approx $
199.99 list).  I would be interested in hearing from someone who has used
this with a Verizon card. It can be seen at the following.
