New Wireless Setup - Sedalia, Missouri

I have had it with the AT&T cellular Internet service! In most of the areas we have traveled to recently, the service is either non-existent or so slow it is unusable. I canceled the service and signed up with Verizon. Their mobile broadband covers a much larger area. Also, most of the RV'ers I have talked with agree that Verizon provides the best wireless Internet coverage.

Below is our current configuration. The Verizon USB data card is connected to a Cradlepoint CTR-500 router to allow both of our laptops to share the cellular service. The cable attached to the Verizon card connects to an external antenna which is mounted on the trailer's ladder.
