I want to dedicate this article to an application for Windows Phone that has provided an excellent solution for avoiding roaming costs abroad as the result of "unwanted" cellular data connections that are automatically started by an application. I'm talking about MoDaCo Nodata, which is developed back in 2006 by one of my international friends Paul O'Brien, Founder and Editor in Chief of MoDaCo.

April 12, 2010 By 16 Comments
hughes

Having a cabin in the rural area of the Catskills in NY,  I was forced to get satellite internet, since there was no availability of DSL or Cable internet. However with the huge coverage of Verizon's 3G network I have another option for a broadband connection.

This test has proven to me that even 3G data connection (or 4G and LTE in the future) will be my preferred … [Read more...]

In this article I will put the Huawei B260 3G Gateway to the test, and will have and in-depth look at both the hardware and software of this advanced travel router.  Only be looking at the box, my guess is that this product will be aimed at the … [Read more...]
