As a refugee out in the sticks, and previous Wild Blue Value Pack customer, I'm in heaven now. This combo rocks, speeds Off Peak are in the 700kbs-1100kbs, drops to abut 450-550 during peak times.

I'm curious as to your setup there as I am looking at doing the same thing.

From what I gather (and correct me if I'm wrong) you are using:
1. Alltel EVDO service (what they call "Wireless Internet" on their web site) using the "phone and tether (aka USB cable)" option
2. A Motorola Razr V3m phone
3. A Cradlepoint router of some sort.

I have a couple of questions:

1. The phone you're using is no longer sold on Alltel's website but I take it it was at some point? Or did you buy it off Ebay?
2. How did you know that that phone would work in combination with the Cradlepoint router? I looked on Cradlepoint's web site, and it doesn't say anything about working with any Alltel phones.

I'd appreciate any help you could give me.
