ouch,....um yeah,...we used it at work, got it for 2 other people in the company and sorry to say, but connectivity is not too good,...Even in areas with a tower, and its still not reliable compared to RR as we could never could get a strong reliable constant signal.
The feature of being able to plug into any wall socket, or your own cigarette lighter in your car to get web access is a great feature, but until reception gets better I'd have to say "thumbs down" on this Clearwire for now,....Reception is like a bad cell phone provider and RR is like Verizon, I got a signal everytime,.....

I subscribed to clearwire last year in November the moment I set it up I would barely get a signal as matter of fact i never even got online. according to the website my home was in the coverage zone (mililani). Now for the funny part, the tech came to my house to attempt to get a signal and he could barely get two bars. to top it off he said the nearest relay tower was on top of mililani high. well guess what mililani high is barely a 1/4 mile away from my house. well the only thing he and I could come up with was that the signal was some how shooting over my house. luckily for me they gave me a full refund on the modem that i had purchased and cancelled my 1 year contract.

As an account exec...I guess you now have some feedback on what you and your company must do to gain the trust of customers.... competition is healthy thing as it gives us consumers the best bang for our buck...without it...we would always be getting ripped off....

But I do thank everyone for there input. This thead, I've already shown it to my main boss today, and he thanks your input as well.
Now, I'm just doing this for i-club members I know....not everyone, but If you would like to barrow a demo. Let me know...I can only let a demo out for 2 days.So that way you can judge clearwire for yourself, and hopefully win some support with you fellas....BTW, does anyone have a TBE they want to sell??? need one

do you have expresscard 34 card that i can demo? Who makes the card? Mac compatible drivers available? i currently have sprint mobile broad band and cannot complain about it with the exception of my card going bad on me.
I also agree that clear wire is no where near where it needs to be in pricing, speed to compete with DSL/Cable speeds that at the 10+MB range now.

Hi,
I have a 512Kb DSL connection with limited 15Gb download/upload and I pay monthly $130... you think you can do better than this?
By the way you will need to install a very long line to my home...
Damn I miss US connection
