I live in a rural area in Texas, can't get DSL here. I have had GotSky Satelitte dish for my internet service. It got where it was so slow, I had to do something. Cancelled with them. Called Verizon and ordered a Broadband Access Modem from them. Fast service, device was fast most of the time, but got National access some of the time, which really slowed it down. I had a UM175. Well I sent this one back and went to Verizon store and got another modem, a USB727. It was always slow. One of the devices kept getting National Access all of the time, even though I have and am in a Broadband Access coverage. Finally took it back to store and they gave me another device, USB727, well I got home and it still stayed in National Access most of the time, was really slow most of the time. Took it back and got a Verizon UM175 modem, because I did remember that the other device I had in the beginning was alot faster. (it has a built in antenna, which allows it to get a better signal, I guess. I have been using it for a couple of days, now and extremely pleased, it has been fast all of the time, and doesn't go to the National Access very often at all, (maybe not at all) but it is still fast. I am very well pleased. I had to pay $50 more to get this device. And it it is well worth it. Hope this helps someone else.
