My neighbor and myself installed ours yesterday... So far I am underwhelmed.
Range is really limited.  I get about 30 feet

Latency at the moment is almost 4 seconds
Down load on most test sites is about 1.4 Mb but upload seems capped somehow at 47Kb

I would think it should be comparable to a regular cell site in terms of speed. My tests are under
single user condition with a 100Mb internet feed and bypassing the firewall.

My neighbor is seeing about the same thing.  Nothing specific I can find on the forums about what
other are seeing yet.  Yes it can make a voice call but the data path really sucks.RSS Feed:
