• After witnessing the continued decrease of involvement in the SpotterNetwork staff in serving SN members with troubleshooting issues recently, I have unilaterally decided to terminate the relationship between SpotterNetwork's support and Stormtrack. I have witnessed multiple users unable to receive support weeks after initiating help threads on the forum. I find this lack of response from SpotterNetwork officials disappointing and a failure to hold up their end of the agreement that was made years ago, before I took over management of this site. In my opinion, having Stormtrack users sit and wait for so long to receive help on SpotterNetwork issues on the Stormtrack forums reflects poorly not only on SpotterNetwork, but on Stormtrack and (by association) me as well. Since the issue has not been satisfactorily addressed, I no longer wish for the Stormtrack forum to be associated with SpotterNetwork.

    I apologize to those who continue to have issues with the service and continue to see their issues left unaddressed. Please understand that the connection between ST and SN was put in place long before I had any say over it. But now that I am the "captain of this ship," it is within my right (nay, duty) to make adjustments as I see necessary. Ending this relationship is such an adjustment.

    For those who continue to need help, I recommend navigating a web browswer to SpotterNetwork's About page, and seeking the individuals listed on that page for all further inquiries about SpotterNetwork.

    From this moment forward, the SpotterNetwork sub-forum has been hidden/deleted and there will be no assurance that any SpotterNetwork issues brought up in any of Stormtrack's other sub-forums will be addressed. Do not rely on Stormtrack for help with SpotterNetwork issues.

    Sincerely, Jeff D.

I sort of discussed this topic, but no worries. My suggestion would be to go with the Novatel ... for one this is the latest aircard that provides the highest class with the GPRS/EDGE and now the HSDPA networks ...

In addition the card gives you the option of attaching an external RF antenna to the jack that is supplied ... I haven't been able to figure out the type of connection that is neccessary for the connection ...

Reviews have commented it performs equally to the Sierra Wireless Aircard 860 ...

I would suggest to read through these forum posts for some further insight:

KEEP IN MIND THE DATE IN WHICH THEY WERE POSTED ... sometimes I even get thrown off and think it's 'new' news ... but companies make changes, update firmware, etc, etc. The best think to do is to view opinions but always view the LATEST threads before making decisions.

LAST BUT NOT LEAST:

Google "Novatel U730" ... that's what I did :wink:
