It worked fine for the first two days, but today (day 3) it won't even open my yahoo or gmail. Yesterday it wouldn't open ebay, but today it did. However, it wouldn't open a game site where I was able to play yesterday. I work at home in a very rural area and have been using HugheNet (which I absolutely hate!), but I may have to go back. Cannot afford to have this service continue this downward spiral. I’ve had the same problems as “Re”. It worked fine for the first two days, but today (day 3) it won’t even open my yahoo or gmail.

I'm still looking for a fix.

It started out great, but after a few days the whole thing went downhill. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the quicksilver. That didn't help. I have been on the phone with AT&T 3 times in two days and will be calling again today. My connection at first lasted until I shut down. Now it will stay connected for approximately 3 minutes and then it tells me I am going at "limited connectivity." Then I cannot load any new pages because they will time out. I am so sick of this!

Is anybody else having this problem? We have just tried our first in the district and it seems to have a lot of problems/issues with Dell hardware.

That’ll give you 70 to 135kpbs downloads on an EDGE network, and 700kbps to 1.7 Mbps downloads on HSPA. Best of all, it’s free (if you get it with a two year contract and mail in the $100 rebate).
