The installation was a little perturbing, not for the meek, but in relatively short order, I got it running. I hung the living room computer off Rocket Hub via the very-hard-to-find ethernet port and the netbook via integrated wifi.
The link was made by 3G+. HSPA network connection. So that was good news. However I was surprised by the frequency of drops in signal. I thought it would be much faster and very stable. I did side-by-side speed tests with our current wireless provider (microwave) and the Rogers box.
Also, I experienced a bit of sticker shock. Is it really $400 a month?

tested Rocket Hub
Brought the evaluation unit up to the observatory. The intent was to perform testing of signal quality and speed. We need to know our options when choosing a new internet service provider.
