May 2008 update + Radar Link plus Speed Tests

Coming soon.........I will try to get the Cradlepoint Cellular Router tested to create a instant hot spot. As soon as it arrives the testing begins.

One link to the best animated radar sites is from the government:

National Weather Service Enhanced Radar Image Loop

http://radar.weather.gov/Conus/full_loop.php

This site is managed by the National Weather Service and gives you a complete view of the whole United States, with animated radar.

Two speed test sites to determine if your service provider is promising what you are paying for are:

http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest/ and http://speedtest.net/

Just follow the directions and check your download and upload speeds, and if necessary call and complain why you are not getting the speeds promised. Another reason for checking speeds is if you notice lags in page loading, you may need to unplug your modem (for DSL) to reset the connection. This is a common problem when using DSL. This won't work for dial-up, that is what it is.
