I use clear for my kids Internet

Up and down are decent
5 down. 1 up

Ping times are not great.  In the 200ms range.

But with that said.  They use magicJack as thier main line.   Works great

Would I do it again?    I would say yes.  I'm paying 40 bucks I think for the service

Went with them because comcast sucks and Verizon ... While being GREAT and in thier apt complex kept saying.  Not at her address.  I gave up and got  clear. They stream netflix and slingbox all day.    Never a hicup


I like them.  And I am suprised by that.    It's nt super doped fast.  But streaming never has buffered once.   That's good enough

Don't do it.

Tether to your smartphone (EasyTether or PDANet).

If you have Sprint, you can get hotspot capacility for $30/month. (ETA: if you have a 4G phone)

I have had 3 clients now try and dump clear for business.  It sucks for business.  VOIP really sucked over clear.
