Yes but disconnects is the main problem so was hoping to find a area with better signal, also the speed waxes and waves alot. Sometimes to nothing for a few seconds before going back up to max.

Poker player... that really bites for me :P

My recommendation is for you to use USB extension if you not using one at the moment -- Solved my disconnection issues i was experiencing after 1-2 day use.

Trust me CELL C is freaking awesome for Poker online - was on empire poker for 24hours not even 1 drop/lag in connection and using it for video/voice over skype brilliant but my uncle iPhone 4 picture was crappy well walking :P
 
TESTS DONE USING ICKDOZE

B970b router at home. Got this from site, have to test it.

Decided to give it a whirl with CellC and see what gives, but it left me a little bit disappointed.

My reasoning was thus : It's a bigger unit, and therefore the aerial inside should also be bigger than the E1820 speedstick, resulting in better transmit/receive speeds.

Not so.

Here's the speedtest.net result :

Seems that there's some sort of issue again as my speedstick is also slow tonight :

Will try again later tonight (if I can get out of bed) to check for improvements.

I dislike you especially I am nowhere near those speeds and I am about 3km or so from you and I found out where my base station is situated by Linmeyer (where you friend is situated) a pity :(

TESTS DONE USING UBUNTU 10.10 32-bit

I'm NOT going crazy.

Same battery of tests as repeated above, but using Ubuntu as the OS :
