OK screw Sprint, they disconnected me
again because I was three days late on a payment.
So I went to the corporate Cricket store in Madison. The kid behind the counter said it wouldn't work in my area but I bought it anyway. He waived the activation fee, charged me 50.00 + tax for the modem and away I went ( currently there is a 50.00 mail in rebate
and the first month is free. Out the door cost was the 50.00 for the modem and February is free. First bill is in March).
I installed it on my laptop in the parking lot where I got five bars and headed down the road to my place (rural Cambridge). Surprisingly there was good signal most of the way, but for a few dips where it dropped off completely.
Back at home, I get two bars and it is as fast if not faster than Sprint. For 40.00 a month and no contract, I am a happy camper!
