Hi Lynn, The folks at 3gstore.com are pretty knowledgeable. I've set up several of my neighbors in Conway with antennae/amplifiers so they could dump their satellite internet and replace with 3G (wi-fi). Unfortunately, my home/office is somewhat downhill from the neighbors so I could not successfully do it here. When/if you purchase from 3gstore, make sure you can return the products if they don't work out for you.
