Laptop Connect Cards
 

Ive done a search on these on the forum and everything i found was posts from 07.


I use a AT&T 3G Laptop connect card. I pay $60 a month for the service (2 year sign up) and I get a new IP address everytime i use it. This looks like a great solution for whoever wants to use it, i havent seen it discussed much on here.

its pretty expensive compared to something like dial up

same goal at the end of the day

Yea, dial up is better.

I bought one of those cards when they first came out... and expected it to work well with eBay, etc. And I'm sure it would have, but it was so slow for me, I couldn't do anything. I mean dial up would have been faster. But that was a couple years ago.

I'm sure it's faster now and it should work fine for eBay.

Let me know how it goes, I may end up getting another one because I know 3g has gained speed. :)

it works good for me since 2 years now. also it depends on your computer's processor.

My computer is a low end computer so the processor isnt great, but the 3G card works just as fast as my high speed connection at home. I was expecting something slow when i bought it but i was pretty impressed with the speed of it and i am usually on 1 or 2 bars. I cant guarantee it will work as good for you as it does for me, but I would recommend it to anyone to buy. Its def. wortht he investment if your gonna use it alot.

Its more expensive then dial up for sure but its def. better. You can have this with you anywhere at anytime witht he high speed. I have a job where we have alot of down time at work so it works perfectly for me.

Nice, my iphone 3g is pretty fast. I may just tether to that for now.

Just as a backup plan. :)

aspkin if youve got an iphone there's really no need to get a laptop card. when you tether through an iphone you get a new IP every time anyway.

Je comprends

Wouldn't ebay be suspicious that your ip always changes?

Just wondering.

So If i made two accounts, and the ip changes.. is there chance that one ip will be linked to another by randomly having it by chance?
