• 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'm too cheap for an aircard, but I do use my Sprint Touch Pro 2 as a wifi hotspot. Usually works pretty good, at least until I get a call. ;-) It would be great to have an aircard for a consistant connection, but for as much as I am able to chase, it just wouldn't be practical.

get on ebay and buy a used verizon card, you can go month-to-month with it, $60 a month, 5gb limit, no contract or termination fees. but you do pay a $35 activation fee every time you turn your service back on.
 
Drew is right. I picked up a 2nd(backup) Sierra Wireless 598U card off Ebay for $13.50....Brand new, in the box from Best Buy Outlet.
 
Best deal is Millenicom

20 GB per month
No Contract ( month to Month )
$59.99 per month no taxes
Free Device ( Novatel U760 )
Same coverage as getting the card from Verizon

Thanks for the replies guys I know which way I need to go now. Thanks also to Steven for the timely thread, I spent a good portion of yesterday afternoon researching and was worried that I might spend a decent amount of money on something that wouldn't help.
 
Millenicom, YES
Amp, yes. External antennia, Yes from Gordon and MaximumSignal, YES.
Call him, he will walk you through exactly what you need.
Dont forget the wireless router. That way you can access the intenet from several devices in the car at once. We also take a laptop into the restaurants and feed off the router. works GREAT!
