Does anyone have any experience (good or bad) with using EVDO high speed wireless broadband service under CentOS? I am looking for high speed / low cost internet connectivity for an office that is in an area without DSL or Cable. My idea was to use EVDO from either Verizon or Sprint with a PCMCIA to PCI adapter card that I could stick into a CentOS machine that is used as the router/firewall. If anyone has any specific experience with these, please let me know. Thanks, Barry

Throughput is pretty good here in Tampa - even works well when traveling at 80 mph on the interstate :-) Anything else you want to know? Peter.
