as ya'll know, lisa changed our internet provider. we were HOPING to cut donw on some cost here at the house. we have verizon cell phones, so why not go with the verizon "jetpack" wireless internet service right? no more land line, and only 1 phone bill.

well it SUCKS...BIG TIME!! "supposed" to be 4g networking. only up here on HTIS ountain i only get 3g. and SPEED?!?! dial up is faster than this crap. o i have been calling the folks and "explaining" my problem to them. getting the run around for the last 3 weeks. like "you'll get 4g in oyur area real soon." me; "how soon?" them; "within a year or so." gimme a break!

then they said "have oyu tried moving to other rooms in the house? look i said. i have put this THING in every room i have, no change. ok the said. how aobut going outside? OUTSIDE?!?!?! yessir, try it outside and see if that helps. so just to humor the lady i go outside. ......it's worse.

so she aske dme to do a SPEEDTEST on my computer. ok. i go to the SPEEDTEST.COM site and do it. what doe sit tell oyu on the upload sir? 0.24 mbg(?), and 0.62 on the outher. silence for about 30 seconds. HELOO? YOU THERE MA'AM? yessir, i am here. what is the g of oyur ocmputer? 4G!!! i jsut had it overhauled 6 months ago lady. it AIN'T MY COMPUTER OK?

ok sir, i jsut have to go through the process. yessir that is way below the reccomended settings. you should have someone from such and such call oyu within 72 hours to talk aobut what we can do or cancell this for you. but they may want to see if oyu would be interested in an antennea. "how much?" i asked. "normally it is $250.00, but we are having a special now, $100.00 and if it works we re-emburse oyu $50.00."

WHAT THE HE77!!! it costs me $170.00 to cancell, now oyuwant me to dish out another $100.00 for an antennea that MIGHT help and if it DOES, give me back $50.00. if it don't i am out $100.00 anyway. nope....no thanky ma'am. i want out and ain't gonna pay a thing. now if oyu want to SEND me the antennea for FREE. test it, ok. but then, if it don't help...i want out without paying ONE RED PENNY, UNDERSTAND? yessir.

now before i say don't do this folks. it is because of WHERE we live. way up and in out in the KUNTRY. ok? in the city, this is fine for wireless internet. one of my sister in laws has this and LOVES it. fast and works jsut fine. but she lives in the CITY of mobile. most all sities have the 4g. but not up here, lol.

and i also asked her this. i said we use verizon CELL phones and get FANTASTIC service. 5 out of 5 bars on the antennea. WHY NOT ON THIS THING? 3 OUT OF 5 BARS IS ALL I GET. dunno she says.

so hopefully i will go back to the land line and things will go back to where we were. we wanted this to work for real folks. so's we could take my laptop when we go somewhere and stay in touch with folks. maybe even get daniel to teach me how to post up pictures instead of me buggin him to do it for me. easier if i have MY computer so he can show me with it.

jsut had ot rant some MORE on this crappy thing and hope and pray i get it solved. i love my wife, she tries to help us out and i was REALLY hoping this would work. but it didn't. oh well.....
