The Clear coverage hole is gone

Referring back to a post from June 1, the coverage hole that previously sat over my part of Midtown is finally gone. So I went ahead and signed myself up for a plan from Clear.

Now, to be.. um… clear? transparent? … about this, I do live in a bottom floor unit, which means even with the gazillion cell repeaters in the area, I’m hardly guaranteed to get a good signal.

Out of five bars, my modem gets two. Yet, it still seems faster than my DSL, though I haven’t tested it quite yet. In either case, my next step will be to use the tin foil trick to boost the signal. Then, after that, I’m pretty confident now that I’ll be able to rid myself of the AT&T monster.
