the gps is to prevent you from bringing the airave out of the united states and using it anywhere on earth that has a broadband internet connection.

yeah i read that too before i called.....guess he wanted me to think he was doing me a favor or something....

Re: How to get Airave2 now with 3g
 

i had the same issue....kept calling and BINGO.......

Re: How to get Airave2 now with 3g
 

anyone that has called in and done this, if you could answer a question for me. I have the original airave and pay the $5 fee for the airave and then $10 for unlimited minutes (not using your plan minutes) while I am connected and using the airave. I know people are saying this new one doesn't have the $5 fee but is the option to have that $10 unlimited airave minutes still available?

Re: How to get Airave2 now with 3g
 

to the poster who has no internet,

if you have clearwire in your area you can get a clearwire enabled router and go that route...

rwoodr,

you really didnt have to pay the fees for the first model. you could have those waived also...

with the new airvana, there are no fees associated with it... none. its unlimited period...

Re: How to get Airave2 now with 3g
 

i never paid for the original device, nor have i had to pay the $5 monthly fee. i didnt opt for unlimited minutes so i cannot speak on the $10 fee. when the order was placed for the new airave, i was informed that there would be a return kit sent seperately and that i should send back the old unit. that made me happy.

after reading some of the forums, i see that it doesnt always go as smooth as in my case. sprint sometimes baffles the mind with the inconsistencies from plan to plan and person to person. you would think by now someone in corporate would have figured out how to make things even across the board. i do know this... acting like a douche will get you nothing, so choose your words carefully!!!

I just called and told them I was reading I was able to get a free upgrade and they said yes, no problem at all. However I did ask and the girl told me my monthly fees would still continue that only the equipment is free and not the monthly fee.

What's up with that?

Re: How to get Airave2 now with 3g
 

I had never even thought to ask about them waiving the fees till I started reading this thread... so sad. I have 0 reception in my area and it was the greatest thing ever when I first got the airave. that was over a year ago now.. *sigh* ah well, thanks for the info. time to call sprint!
