PHS300

Works with 4G modems (tested with the Huawei E368) but in the documentation on the CP site (ReleaseNotes) here is this Gem: "PHS300 with LTE or WiMAX Modems: The PHS300 USB port is USB1.1 standard. Maximum tested throughput speeds are typically limited to 6mbps."

Which means that I will never get anything over 6mbit out of this thing. With overhead...etc...I get max about 4mbits and that is at a location that has verified consistent 10mbit speeds.

I was using this thing on a 3G network and had it plugged in for months (like 5 or 8 months) everyday using it constantly. I should have taken the battery out because it looks like it is bulging. I may order another depending if I use it or not. They have generics online for like $5. It is worth while to note that while the battery appears to be messed and the charge activity deal in the unit and on the web interface says 100% alot that I have been using it for about 30 mins and it still works. Most batteries just crap out without use and trickle charge for months.
