Re:The Minneapolis Rollout (Score 1)

I just received my wireless modem (Ruckus) from USI Wireless the other day. I was rooting for this to work because I badly want to be free from Time Warner's cable internet service. I pay $45/month for a 6MB connection through Time Warner; the USI Wireless plan worked out to be around $18/month for a 3MB feed. The Wi-fi modem set up automatically on my G4 Mac, so no issues there. The bummer is, my office is in the back of my house, I'm in the middle of my block, and the wi-fi antennas on the street corners are equally far away. The resulting signal was unusable at best. Sadly, I decided to cancel my service with USI Wireless. The amount of time/trouble to get things working well isn't worth it. I hope others in my area have a better outcome. I'm THRILLED that there is increased competition with this new wi-fi network here in Minneapolis.
