Rep Power: 5 | evdo has usb port... cant you use that?? im not sure whether it has the pcmcia version.. if it does then you surely can use it.. better usb though..Well i think torrent speeds would be slow.. as no portforwarding options are available.. not good for torrents.. |

Rep Power: 5 | usb supports the 2mbps speeds too.. it depends on the network you are connected to.. or the tower rather.. if the tower supports you would get 2.4mbps.. and i heard that this card doesnt support port forwarding.. its not ADSL tech |

Rep Power: 5 | have you seen cell phone towers at multiple locations in different areas like this one http://www.enavillage.org/images/EnaTower.jpg .. just like this there are EVDO towers.. now certain towers support only 144kbps speeds.. and certain towers have been upgraded and support 2.4mbps speeds.. so it depends on which area you are in currently(with your laptop) and if that area has a 2.4mbps tower nearby, then you would get 2.4mbps speeds if not only 144kbsp |
