Is there anyway you can set it so u just pick up from one tower? I've been having terrible lag spikes when try to play games online and have been told it could be from it jumping towers?

just make sure our PRL is up to date as well as the firmware, that's the best you'll be able to do.

The only way to single out a tower is with the assistance of yagi antenna, as shown here http://3gstore.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=98&products_id=853

You can position the Yagi Antenna to lock into a specific tower since the antenna is a directional.

ok i have another question about my ping. I use my internet mainly to play box live, so therefore i need the best possible ping. I can connect to the internet, check my ping and it will be around 130 or so, disconnect and connect again and get a ping of 80-90ms. Sometimes it will take me 10 or more tries to get a ping in the 80 to 90 range but it will stay there for the whole time i'm connected. Is this normal? Anything i can to to help it have a lower ping more often rather then connecting and disconnecting numerous times? my signal is usually between 80-85rssi.
