Cellular backup connections

[Dovid Bender <dovid () telecurve com>]

Hi All,

I finally got around to setting up a cellular backup device in our new POP.
I am currently testing with T-Mobile where the cell signal strength is at
80%. The connection is 4G. When SSH'ing in remotely the connection seems
rather slow. Ping times seem to be all over the place (for instance now I
am seeing: rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 174.142/336.792/555.574/99.599 ms) . Is
that just cellular or is that more related to the provider and the location
where I am? I could in theory test with VZ and ATT as well. With Verizon
they charge $500.00 just to get a public IP and I want to avoid that if
possible.

Thanks and sorry in advance if this is off topic.
