So I recently went around town with this the [intlink id=”3059″ type=”post”]A600[/intlink] and wanted to provide some insightful outcomes.  I used Speedtest.net like I did before and the results are:

Understanding the speeds.

As you can tell I was getting some really good speeds from this test.  It seems with the added length of the modem has also added a better antenna to the USB Modem.   Although you have to be[intlink id=”2484″ type=”post”] cautious about where you go and the coverage[/intlink] area. Please mak sur you are in the Cricket Coverage area I’ve been looking for a way to get an [intlink id=”2931″ type=”post”]extender for the modem[/intlink], but have not found a hole for it. So that might be out of possibilities.

What are some possible uses of this modem.

It having the capability to have an Micro SD card, There is a lot of potential for multiple uses of the modem.   In one of my other posts about [intlink id=”3171″ type=”post”]Backing up[/intlink], I talked about some of the more common programs you could use to keep your passwords on you from time to time.  I wanted to add on some other programs that might be useful for the person on the go who might work on computers:[ad#Cricket_USB_Modem]

• Technibble’s Repair tool section — There are a bunch of good software picks to put on this little modem for use with fixing a hardware or software problem you might come across.

• [intlink id=”2646″ type=”post”]Roboform[/intlink] — I use this all the time and if you need to keep your passwords safe this is the best solution.  It also has a portable version for your cell phone and an USB.  No more worrying about keyloggers and other such malware, this will increase your security.
• [intlink id=”3067″ type=”post”]The A600 Programs[/intlink] — This is good for those times when the modem refuses to install the software.  You can always have the software available to install and use at your convenience.
• Portable Skype — This is good for those who want to [intlink id=”2601″ type=”post”]use skype with the modem[/intlink].  Although you will have to make some modifications and it may or may not work.  I’ve got the full version of skype but I heard it can be done.
• Wikipedia Of portable applications — this is a good resource to find out even more programs that might work on the USB Modem.  It after all can hold 4 gigabytes of data.  So there is room for several programs.
