Sucks to see the end of Wimax. I mean yes compared to most networks it's slow. It's still faster then sprints 3G though XD. I also still use my Clearwire hotspot every now and then when I don't have internet at my house. 10 bucks gets you unlimited data for 24 hours. I never had a problem with clear. I still play xbox online with it and stream youtube and netflix through it.
Also it's cheaper then any other hotspot plans. I have 3 3G/LTE towers around my house but LTE can't really reach into my house and 3G (despite having NV out here in downers grove) is still terrible. I mean even when I am close to a tower I still get a max of like 1mb/s.
LTE is pretty consistent at least (Around 3-5mb/s with peak speeds sometimes getting to around 30mb/s) Still... IMO Clearwire should have not have been bought by Sprint. I mean it's great for sprint.... But we lost another option for service. I would have loved to seen Clearewire having it's TDD-LTE released.. I mean an LTE hotspot with unlimited data would have been great.
