The best I can get is 1 Meg D/L speeds whereas, when I first got the phone it was 3-7M...

I'd also like to be able to leave the computer running (remote desktop) while I'm at work, but obviously can't do that.

Cable internet around me seems to be right in line with what an Overdrive would cost...might not be quite as fast but seems like the better deal due to portability.


BTW, details fixed...been through 4 phones this year. It's hard to keep everything updated. Glad to say I finally found one I'm truly happy with!
I use my Epic 4g for wifi sharing and it works fine..I even keep 5 remote desktops on...I will admit that its not transferring all of the 4g speed but at the moment I am at 2mb/1mb which I find ok I guess(while on phone its 7mb/1mb)...as or heat, I just place it on a metal surface..no fans needed.

Considering wireless card costs its pretty much as getting a 2nd 4g phone with a SERO Premium..unless maybe its cheaper with family plan.
