    Default Laptop intertnet wireless access

    What's the best wireless internet card for service in the midwest and east region ? Verizon ? Sprint ? AT&T ? Any help would be greatly appreciated .

    ive got a sprint 720 card (wireless broadband modem) and this thing works everywhere!!!! i like it!! It beats trying to stop at a flying J all the time and log on their internet access. Its simple to install also, and it works just like high speed where ever you have a phone signal!!! it was 100$ then i got a 50$ mail in rebate, and for unlimited access i pay like 50 or 60 bucks per month......cant beat it!

    I also have a Sprint U720 USB Mobile Broadband Card. Works great, only $59.99 a month unlimited, and worth every penny. I used to have to look for a Flying Hook at the end of the day so I can use their wireless service. Now I can stop anywhere and still get Internet. It also is great when you are waiting to get unloaded or loaded, you can just pop on the Internet and pass the time away.

    If you get Verizon it is $79.99 a month if you did not already have service with them, for example a cell phone. If you have phone service with them it drops down to $59.99.

    Frankly those are the only two companies I would go with. for both phone or Internet service. But that is my opinion.

    I use T-mobile $39.00 a month unlimited,...but its a little slow sometimes, so I added a Wilson amplifier, I'll let you know how it works out.

    Do these cards hold a signal going down the road, like if a person in back wants to be online while you are driving?

    we have verizon and it works just fine going down the road. nice thing about being in a volvo is it has a hook up built in to run your cell throught the cb sticks so the signal is very good..
