Death of an AT&T DSL Modem

If your AT&T DSL service is anything like mine (which drops out at the drop of a hat), you've probably fantasized about taking a hammer to your AT&T DSL modem more than a few times before. I know I have. Today I signed up for CLEAR Wimax, which as it turns out on the 38th floor of my downtown Chicago apartment, works beautifully. This video shows what happened after I finally went and got that hammer...

Yah I have at&t DSL it has never failed me. However I am looking to go 100% wireless within the next year if possable. clear is not yet available in my area. Can you travel from one city to another and still use your clear service ?

Yes, with the home or USB (dongle) modems you can use them anywhere where CLEAR Wimax (4G) service.

You can also get 3G/4G combination USB modem that will let you use 3G wireless anywhere outside of a Wimax 4G coverage area. I don't have that one because I tend to keep to the Chicagoland area.

I have two motorola modems . One is 2 Mbps and the second one is 16 Mbps . The Internet is fast but after about like 12 hours , the modem will reconnect to the server for better connection .

good job.....was it the speed stream or motorola

"...Any questions?"

[yanidoodle]

it's got nothing to do with the modem. no matter how "fast" your modem is, if the service really sucks, then you're stuck.

[kalzorath]
