4G use for home wireless. Fed up with Comcast

Is it possible to plug the 4G into a wireless router so that multiple users can have access? Normally I only need to for my laptop but when I have guests I need to availability to allows others on-line access

pondview,
Several routers support the Pantech UML290, but I don't know of one that supports the LG modem.  The Nexaira Business Class II, the Wifi Ranger, and several routers from CradlePoint support the Pantech.  I recommend searching the EVDO forums for discussions on this topic.  Read what others have experienced.  I've been using the Nexaira router with generally positive results.
Having said that, do you really want to drop your wired connection from Comcast?  4G LTE has great speeds--even faster than many cable connections--but the 5G/10G cap can bite you, particularly if you need to perform software updates.
Cheers,
Damon

  • Looking for a wireless router / accespoint with radio time restriction

    I am looking for a wireless router / accespoint with a radio time restriction but didn't find any information about this option. Are there any routers with the option to turn off the wireless signal between a specific time?
    The router will be used at a small office .
    I hope you can tell me more.
    Cheers
    Michel

    Well there is No router which linksys/cisco manufacture that can stop the wireless signals to be broadcast for a specific time..
    However what you can do is you can get into the setup interface of the router and disable the SSID broadcast and that will stop the router to broadcast the wireless signals...and whenever you need to enable it you can just go back into the setup page of the router and enable the broadcast again.

  • HT4623 Is anyone else having issues with scaling down photos to fit the screen for home and lock screens with ios7??

    Is anyone else having issues with scaling down photos to fit the screen for home and lock screens with ios7??  Installed ios7 this morning. Tried to use one of my photos from camera roll as background for lock screen and I can't scale the photo to fit the screen.  Never had a problem before and now when I pinch the photo to get it to the right size of the screen, it won't stay that way. The photo is enlarged way beyond the screen size so it doesn't look right. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Hello, cliffiapp4.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.  
    Here are the steps that I would recommend going through when experiencing this issue.  
    Resolution
    If a single application is not responding or stops responding when it opens, you can force it to close.
    If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
    If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on), reset your device.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.

  • Can i use a belkin wireless g router with an iMac

    can i use a belkin wireless g router with an imac

    It will work. The wireless card in iMacs (recent ones) work with n, g, and b networks. The g protocol is slower (54 mbs) versus n (130 mbs up to 300 mbs). My employer has hundreds of such access points and has been updating them all to n, but there are still some g routers they haven't gotten to, and they work fine. 54 mbs is not bad, it's about 5 megabytes/sec roughly. Typical actual throughput is lower than these numbers by ~ 50%, so doing a large Mac OS update download of 300 Megabytes would take about ~ 2 minutes with a g router, and maybe a bit less than 1 minute with an n router.

  • Open DNS - For Home Wireless

    Is openDNS be an advantage to my home wireless serving all wireless devices & up internet speed and faster identification?

    There are always pros and cons for everything. If you want to go with OpenDNS consider some of these things:
    Please don’t expect huge gains in browsing speed since OpenDNS only improves the cycle between your computer and the DNS server.
    I got this from this site:
    OpenDNS: the Good, the Bad and the Ugly
    " OpenDNS is fast and reliable, more than the service offered by any ISP I have used. In addition, it offers a host of other features: Content Filtering, Phishing Protection, Domain Blocking, Adult Site Blocking, Web Proxy Blocking, Domain Whitelisting, Statistics, Typo Correction, Web Shortcuts.
    When you type in a domain that does not exist, OpenDNS resolves it to it’s own servers and shows search results (powered by Yahoo!) that they hope will help you find the site you were looking for."

  • Open Directory Usefulness for Home Server

    I'm using Mountain Lion Server primarily as a web server, but as a retired tech writer/programmer I like to fool around with things in case I ever need to return to work. I set up the Open Directory master as part of the installation process, but I'm not sure how useful it is for me. When my site was hosted on Mobileme I got about 30 visits in a day max, and about 1 comment every year or two. So my questions are:
    How useful is the Open Directory for me, and is there any point in keeping it turned on?
    Is it useful for people outside of my LAN?
    Any additional comments, or information are appreciated.

  • Iphone 4 showing wrong IP address for home wireless

    2 days ago we reset our home wireless password and updated our devices (ipad, laptop, and two cell phones). Now my iphone 4 will no longer connet to the wireless. It accepts the new password to join the network but it never connects. It is showing wrong IP address. How can I change it to the correct IP ? Tried hard rest, forget network, and renew lease all trying to get it to automatically update the info. Out of ideas. Any suggestions?

    I have the exact same router as you, I have Comcast, and I am having the exact same INFURIATING problem.
    Comcast and Apple have no ideas. Linksys tells me I am having a router problem.
    I even went so far as to buy a new router and modem from Linksys (as they claim they no longer make the router/modem combo because it doesn't work well). I still don't buy this... my PC, my PS3, my DS... all of them connect to the router perfectly.
    I have the new modem and router here and planned to give that a whirl tonight but Comcast was being difficult and saying it could take 72 hours to activate my new modem. Totally unsat. I had them reconnect the WCG200 and I am still trouble shooting to no avail...
    If anyone finds a fix (short of a new router and new modem)... please post!

  • Generate xml using FOR XML PATH from table with hierarchy

    I need to create xml from a table like:

  • Can't wirelessly connect HP c7280 for home wireless network using A.express

    Hey there, I'm hoping someone can help me. I recently purchased a HP C7280 multifunction printer and have had a wired connection with my new iMac. I'd like to connect wireless and am having extraordinary difficulty. I'm using the latest leopard update. HP doesn't seem to offer any clear assistance. so i'm using an airport express that's connected to my router. I set up a wep key 40 bit and am trying to input that information into the printer's wep key password request. It finds my wireless signal named "Airport" and asks me for a wep key, when i enter the wep key which is 6 letters and 2 numbers, the response I get from the printer is
    "key must be >5 or 13 characters OR - >10 or 26 length with 0-9 and A-F (hex). I've tried to follow this request but i can't seem to make it connect. this aforementioned message keeps popping up. what must i do? i've even restored the printers network factory default to no avail

    The HPc7280 printer seems to be notoriously buggy. Get the new updated driver from the HP website and try to reinstall from scratch. Make sure you delete the previous driver version, because it might be seeing that it was a wired connection. The HP cannot be set as a default printer on Vista machines, it has to be chosen as a printer. After many hours of setup, our HP is finally working seemlessly with our Macs and PC.

  • Recommendation for home wireless service in So Cal?

    I need to purchase wireless internet service for new home in Southern California.  I currently use ATT DSL.  After briefly switching to ATT Uverse on advice of ATT customer service when I wanted to upgrade to faster service and old airport apparently stopped working correctly, it was a disaster. (There is a separate conversation on the Apple Forum about the experience.) After much hassle I switched back to ATT DSL and bought a new airport.  Things have worked fine since, although my son still thinks it takes too long to download movies. We are a Big Mac household - iPad, iPad Mini, iPhone 5, two MacBook Airs, iTouch - and an oddball Droid phone. New home currently uses Verizon phone and internet service through Time Warner (I'm choosing to go with Direct TV). 
    So my questions - Does Verizon wireless internet service work well with a household full of Macs? I prefer to use an Airport. Is there a modem and/or router that Verizon uses that is good or bad? Fios or DSL? (I had a horrible experience with the modem/router with the Uverse disaster.) Has the modem/router/Mac connection improved with Uverse? Or should I just stick with what I know works for me - ATT DSL even though its not the fastest speed?
    I'm not technologically sophisticated (this is probably obvious), so would appreciate replies in plain English.  Thanks!

    DSL is yesterday's technology:
    BEST is Verizon FIOS (or ATT Uverse) depending if either has fiberoptic cable to your door (call each to find out; they will know from your address).  Be careful, ATT is now calling their non-fiberoptic service Uverse; so ask about fiberoptic!
    I use Time-Warner Internet at its fastest consumer speed.  I am currently uploading a 16GB file to an associate in UK and it will take 18 hours (remember upload is always much slower than download).  I think my service is 20 or 30 down and 1 up; at about $40/month.  I have multiple routers to connect it to many Macs, iPhones, AppleTVs, home entertainment systems, etc.
    Stay away from satellite; it is ONLY for internet service to the boonies...
    FYI: I use DirecTV (and a roof-top antenna) for TV and T-Mobile for both VoIP at home and iPhone 5. Everyone HATES the Time-Warner cable service due to their monopoly in So. Cal.
    T-Mobile has best monthly rates in So. Cal for iPhone 5 AND you can purchase additional data for tethering (using your iPhone as a WiFi HotSpot or with BlueTooth, as I use it at an off-line office that has no internet service).  AND you can talk and internet at the SAME TIME, unlike Verizon which on the iPhone is one or the other.
    Soon T-Mobile will implement their UMA/WiFi Calling feature for the iPhone; already implemented on Blackberry, Android and other phones.  This allows FULL T-Mobile talk and text coverage ANYWHERE in the world where you have access to WiFi.  I use it with my Blackberry on every trip to London or at my girlfriend's house in the hills above Santa Cruz by swapping the SIMM card, now with micro-SIMM adapter.

  • Which mobile broadband dongle can I use for my PowerBook G4 running with OSX 10.5.8 please?

    I was given an O2 dongle E173 as a gift but cannot use it as the specification is for an Intel Processor which of course the PowerBook G4 does not have!
    Which dongle can  I use?

    Hi,
    If a USB mobile broadband modem for some reason cannot be used with a certain computer, a good alternative can be a mobile broadband hotspot. This is a device (with a SIM card) that works like a mobile broadband modem, and is capable of establishing a wireless base station. The wireless connection between the computer and the hotspot is normal Wi-Fi. If the computer can handle Wi-Fi, there is no need for any additional software/driver installation. Below is merely one example.
