A Real-World Test of the Verizon MiFi

Posted by kdawson on from the cool-things-in-small-packages dept.

It admirably performed its task of providing speedy Wi-Fi Internet to other devices via an EvDO Rev. A connection. Ironically, the device even improved the experience of using the iPhone, making it usable for surfing where its native network (AT&T) doesn't even connect."

    And judging from our experience with the internet, i.e. file stealing, that "workable price point" means everyone gets internet for "free".

    Fucking file sharing faggots. Oooh, I wasn't sure if collecting 6TiB of dvdrip movies was "fair use" or not. Or my neighbour did it, hacking into my wireless because WEP isn't secure.
