    Love this card!!!, October 30, 2007
By R. Brisben
I live in a remote area where DSL and Cable are not available. My only options are dial up or satellite - both of which are horrible! I started using this card about 8 months ago and absolutely love it! It is not as fast as cable but it is so much better than what I had.

I also love how portable it is! I can take my laptop with me anywhere and still have access. Even though there are a going number of WiFi areas I am not dependent on them! I can take my laptop everywhere I go and have instant access to everything!


    AirCard 595 Very Slow DSL & Customer Service Can't help, October 24, 2007
By flafun99a (Miami Fl)
I recently purchased a new laptop (Dual Core CPU running Win Vista) I installed the Verizon software with no problems. Basically, this is as slow as dialup. I am in an area covered by Verizon with EV-DO Rev A service (large city). I called customer service. I was on the phone with them for almost 3 hours. The tech tried everything. His recommendation was to return the AirCard 595U under the 30 day guarantee. I really wanted this to work, so I went an spent $120 to upgrade by computer's memory from 1 GB to 2 GB, and that didn't help. My Download speeds are 200k -300k and upload speeds are 20 to 50k averaging around 39k upload. Not exactly what I had hoped for.

Previous post C.O. hit the nail on the head. In addition to getting dropped, when I could connect it was slower than promised. I also went round and round with Verizon's staff and took them 2 months to stop charging me. I was out $150 canx fee plus over $100 for the card. What a waste. I plan to cancel all Verizon services now. If you insist on getting this service pay the extra $20 per month and don't sign 2 year contract.

Upgraded to this Card from a non-Rev A. card and was getting consistant DL speed of 1.4-1.6MB This speed of course is achived when used in area where you get good signal. I've used this card for about 6 months and I can only remember 1 time where it used National access in stead of broadband access(most of times, even with low signal, it still connected Broadband access) 100% satisfied with this product.

    There are much better air cards available, July 6, 2007
By C. O. (DFW, Tx.)
I purchased the this pc air card and used the card for 1 year. The speed was very slow at best. I paid for broadband access but the majority of the time I was on the slower national access. I recently had problems where I could not stay connected for more than 10 minutes before being disconnected. After 4 days of not being able to connect to the internet I had to go out and buy a Novatel pc card. I am a stock trader and can not afford to be down for 4 or more days. The people at Verizon were absolute jerks. All I asked for was the service they said they would provide. Instead I got no service and a $175 cancellation fee.
