Important Information Regarding WWAN Service Providers
It is important to understand that not all WWAN service providers operate in the same
way, nor do they all support the same feature sets. Because of this, there exists some
inherent “service provider-specific” variances in service area and more importantly, in
supported features. Along with feature limitations may also come certain restrictions
such as bandwidth constraints and networking limitations. Before purchasing a WWAN
PC card and service plan, check to make sure that the WWAN service provider offers
support for the features you need.
Before committing to a service contract with a WWAN service provider, it may be
helpful to ask these questions:
•
What types of traffic are allowed over the WWAN network?
•
Do they offer “static” or “dynamic” IP addressing?
•
Are there any inbound connection limitations?
•
Are single or multiple hosts allowed?
•
Do they support VPN traffic?
•
What are the data transfer limits (inbound and outbound)?
•
What are common data transfer speeds and how much of the coverage area
supports 3G or faster technology?
