Hello Folks,

Just wanted to post my experiences so far. Last night I received my KR1 and hooked up the Novatel U 720 to it.

Did NOT install any additional firmare of anything else. Just plugged in the U 720, did the basic installation of the router, and it's working flawlessly. There is no issue at all with the Novatel U 720 and the KR1. It's working great.

People were saying that's there's a decrease in speed. I am not in REV A area, so I cannot really say how it's affected me, but I can say that I am getting exact same speeds when connected only through the U 720.
