Re: Did you get an Airave?
EDIT: Removed the wrong quote lol.
I didn't really know about this until I read it here on PPCGeeks! The signal in my home was always 2-3 bars on my TP2. The Evo is the same, but doesn't drop any calls where my TP2 did; I have no idea if that's a coincidence or not.
When I talked to a Sprint representative and told them I'd read online that people are getting something called Airave to better their signal at home, they had me call an Airave tech support person who looked up my address, confirmed I was in a "fair" area which qualifies for free Airave... then they sent it out after approving me for a second line on my SERO-P account. It is supposed to be completely free.
The very first chat representative I spoke with said I would have to schedule an appointment to have technicians come out and test the signal at my place. I told him thank you and moved on to another chat representative that got this all going for me.
I don't have the unit yet, but I'm hoping this increases my signal and works well at my place. I am on a 10mbit cable connection and the woman of the house wouldn't be happy if me being on the phone screwed with Netflix or Hulu streaming. I'm assuming it doesn't take up too much bandwidth, does anyone know if it's intrusive?
