10.6 down, 5.61 up, not bad for AT&T tower 18 miles away

Have a Wilson Antenna that takes my cell phones and wireless hot spot from barely one bars to a consistent 3 to 4 bar in the house.

Not a recommendation for any to do my way, but it makes living in the boonies pretty nice but takes an expensive antenna from Wilson ($400).

I watch very little TV, and this setup let me take my office anywhere via AT&T
