Answer 7

Hey Sarah,

The top 3 companies in order right now are:

1. Verizon

2. AT&T

3. Sprint

Which one is best depends on what you'll primarily be using it for. Verizon ranks excellently in customer service and reliability according to J.D. Power and Associates, while AT&T ranks average and Sprint is below average.

For Speed, a recent article shows that AT&T may be the fastest right now (and definitely will be by the end of the year) with 7.2 Mbps download speed. That's about faster than what you'd get with some cable providers like Comcast and Time Warner. Verizon ranks second while Sprint ranks third as it's network is a mixture of fast and somewhat fast speeds (EVDO Revision A and 0).

In the coverage department, Sprint has everyone beat with the largest mobile broadband network. Following on their heels are AT&T who's investing millions of dollars to upgrade their network in time for the 3G I-Phone release and also by the end of 2009. Verizon is also making upgrades but not as aggressively.

There's a lot more information on this. Check the sources and if you can't find what you're looking for drop me a line.

Answer 8

BT broadband

Answer 9

I prefer Sprint.

As for the adapter, if you purchase a PCI card make sure if will fit into your laptop. This is only the case if you have a newer Dell (they use what is called an Express PCI card).

Answer 10

After conducting tests for speed and signal strength, I found Verizon to be the best (out of Verizon, AT&T, and Sprint).
