floridadiver81 0 #1 March 31, 2007 Firstly, i ordered their service yesterday morning at approx 10 am. I set the account up..everything is fine. Well i woke up toady about 10:40am and the box was already here! well..i take everything out and i have the modem, power cord and ethernet wire. It is totally wireless like they advertise. They say to have it as close to a window as possible. well..i have it int he middle of the room and still have 4 out of 5 lights on( the more on the better the signal). No more running cable wherever i wanted my computer or no phone lines for DSL. Its also slightly cheaper that cable and dsl also. I recommend it to anyone that lives in an area that has clearwire internet access!"Age has absolutely nothing to do with knowledge, learning, respect, attitude, or personality." -yardhippie "Fight the air, and the air will kick your ass!!!

Gawain 0 #3 March 31, 2007 Their web-site indicates speeds comparable with some DSL speeds. I'd like to know if anyone is signed up with Verizon's FiOS service. That seems like the real sh*t right there.So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright 'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life Make light!

That seems like the real sh*t right there. My son in Hillsborough county (down by Tampa) got Verizon FIOS as soon as it was available (along with what seems like a majority of bright house's customers down there) and it is the bomb-diggity! Great TV pix and sound, very fast internet speed and even included the wireless router at not extra charge. Add to all that around a 33% reduction in monthly cost compared to bright house and you've got a winner. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
d_squared431 0 #5 March 31, 2007 I have had clearwire for almost 6month and I think it is faster than DSL. No bandwich that I know of. By August they are going to have a smaller tower basically a flash drive plug in so you don't have to take the tower every you go. For older laptops there will be a d-link looking thing. The problem is clearwire is only in selected cities and states right now. They are working on that.TPM Sister#130ONTIG#1 I love vodka.I love vodka cause it rhymes with Tuaca~LisaH You having a clean thought is like billyvance having a clean post.iluvtofly Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
