I'm looking in options for rural Internet access when no DSL or cable is available. I've had Hughes.net for three years now with no complaints. But that's here at home #1 in New York. When I got to my places in northern Michigan, or Adirondacks NY, I can't take Hughes.net with me.
Verizon has a new wireless Internet system. Called Millenicom. It's portable and runs on 800 MhZ frequency. So it seems if you get OK cell phone reception on that same frequency, this Internet access system will also work.
Anybody have it?
Our cell phones here in NY and also in Michigan only work well when we use a passive 800 MhZ amplifier and outdoor antenna. With the amp, service goes from 1 bar to 5 bar plus. One thing I wonder. The cheapest Millenicom system claims it only works on one computer. I need to use multiple computers via a wireless router. Has anybody tried the cheaper system with such a router? Verizon wants to sell me the most expensive Internet system that is rated 3G/4G and has a built in five-computer router. It is $89 with a limit of 10 Gigabytes per month.
