SonicWALL TZ210 or NSA240. I’ve used them both. Not cheap, but rock solid.

If only I could remember the name of the software...

Maybe WinGate? I used that years ago and it worked well.

I bookmarked this thread so I could understand what you were talking about.

I still don’t.

So I wouldn’t get free cable or high speed internet? Right?

I’m pretty basic and techno challenged. :)

The dongle/antenna/aircard is free in this deal. The service isn’t; you have to subscribe to it. $35/month for a slower service or $50/month for a faster service. Both without limits on monthly data volume (beyond the speed of the connection). Even the slower version will support You Tube videos, but just barely.

A friend used Clear for a while until a wired service became available, and had no complaints. Supposedly, all the places where I want to use it are in the middle of dark green coverage areas according to the Clear maps so I think I’d be as well positioned as any to use Clear. But did you have problems even there?

What’s a dongle?

It's an added circuit that plugs into one of the ports of the PC to allow some software to run. I know that some software used a Parallel Port dongle to establish a hardware authorization for the software that was rented - when the time was up returning the dongle completed the contract as the software wouldn't run without it.

I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong!       ;^)
