Don't know what your Verzon coverage is like, but they've been rolling out LTE
across the country. Once that is in place, Fusion is a viable alternative to
satellite. Speed's about the same and you still have to deal with caps, but
pricing is less and the latency is much lower.


I noticed that 3G areas are quickly being converted to 4G. It's still
unstable in many areas (reverting to 3G, or nothing) but it's certainly a move
in the right direction. Do they make a 4G access point for an entire house,
either 4G to WiFi or wired? Something that could have an antenna optimally
placed? It gets expensive if every device needs its own service and often
data service inside a house is spotty.
