    I see....you prefer natural stress reducing :D

    Thanks for taking the time to check))

    Isn't that too slow, man? What platform do you use? I'm afraid if I'll run Ninja on .77, slow as Ninja is, will just freeze.

    I also got clear recently. 4 MB/s isn't fast enough for you? That's faster than vast majority of DSL lines you realize.

  3. Sprint mobile broadband has performed impeccably for more than a decade now. I suggest you compare it to others you're considering.

    Sprint and Clear are kinda the same thing. My 4G/3G modem is accessing Clears 4g network when available, and falling back to Sprint 3G when not.

    Morning BASM….


    Yes Sir… and Yes Sir

    I typically receive an email about the 20th of each month (+/- a day or two) telling me I’ve used half of my allotted 5 Gig – but I’ve never exceeded it

    I trade from my laptop about 99% of the time


    ==========================================================================================


    Gubinec,

    Verizon just recently launched that 4G – I don’t have it….

    I’m using their 3G air card (the predecessor to 4G) – and I’ve never had issues with speed even during extremely busy times (opens, the 2007/ 2008 dumps)

    I’ll probably switch to 4G at some point – but I’m in no hurry…

    Since its new I’d rather them get any bugs worked out – without me – first…

    On my CLEAR 4g... At my house, I get a weaker 20% signal. 2.1mbps down, 450kbps up.

    At my in-laws, I got a nice 4 bar signal. I had around 3.5 mbps down, and still 500 Kbps up.

  9. art deco was probably watching porn while doing this test, titilating with excitment he probably got confused.

    Download is always faster than upload. Faster uploads are for servers and companies who host. Which costs a lot more money.

    Is there a 4G mobile plan that offers unlimited bandwidth yet? The "overage" charges are completely ridiculous on these plans, especially Verizon. Right now I use Virgin Mobile's Beyond Talk plan for 3g, $25/month, unlimited data. But 3g speeds are too slow for my trading apps.
