Millenicom Users May Want to Read These Blog Posts

[Mrs. CountryGuy]

I follow this blog, did not see the first article, but, the second one caught my attention.

First:

Our Story of Bandwidth Betrayal

And, second, the one that caught my attention:

Millenicom: We’re All In This Together

This couple are right on with their techy posts. But, you judge.

Offered in the FYI vein, with knowledge we roll forward, well warned, learning, and hopefully staying connected.

Thanks Carol,it would be nice if Millenicom had a good way for us to monitor our usage.

Interesting. I'm still convinced, but don't have enough knowledge to know, that in the extreme rural areas we normally camp in Verizon was throttling our bandwidth when regular Verizon users needed more. By switching to Verizon we no long have problems in the same areas. Could be my imagination, but no more freeze ups and slow speeds for whatever reason.

Thanks for sharing this Carol. This is exactly why I want to stay on the 3G instead of 4G. Looks like 4G is to fast for what I use the internet for. Basicly I use it for emails, forums and news! No you tube or very little, no movies, another words very little video's. Every once in awhile I contact Millenicom to get my usage and I am always under 10G a mo. and I am on this thing a lot.

I downloaded a free program called Bitmeter which keeps track of my usage, much easier than finding it on Millenicoms site. This is just one of several free programs available.

Yippee!! Millenicom came through with a firmware update that allows me to see my usage on my Jetpack
