Work is so iffy, right now, and gas is so $$$, so I'm looking for ways to save money, if possible.
Verizon charges $60/month, with a 5 gigabyte monthly limit, to use a Verizon "broadband card" to access the internet-- but it's getting to be too expensive for me.
Also, my used broadband card was acting up at times, last season, &/or Verizon reception was pretty iffy even on I-70 & I-76, etc., out N, E & S of Denver. Frustrating, and lost me time.
Does anyone here use (non-Verizon) other CHEAPER, yet GOOD SIGNAL internet choices, for broadband cards for Eastern Colorado, for their laptops in their cars?
Also, what about using a new (?cheap) cell phone as a modem, for my used laptop? Would that get me any good reception out away from Denver? Would it save me money?
I'm open to all ideas! (other than putting my own radar antenna on top of car...)
Thanks in advance!
