I was excited the other day, because a well known blog over at jkontherun.com noticed me over here at TechForAgents.com and decided to write about me using the V5740 wireless card from Verizon Wireless.
They gave me some great insight about my experiences using the V5740. The informed me that they have had better experiences using the V620, which is another card (albiet more expensive) available to purchase from Verizon. Yesterday, I took a drop be the same brick and mortar store and spoke to my sales rep, Carolina, about the cards. I actually went in to replace the card with the newer version but she actually corrected me.
She informed me that the V5740 was actually the newer card, and that the V620 is the card that they started using when they first started advertising the wireless internet service. They disagreed that I would get better reception with the V620, but I thought I’d give it a shot anyway. Unfortunately, she informed me that she would have to order the card and that it would take about 2 business days to get it in. I had an important meeting to go to that afternoon, so I couldn’t trade in my card just yet. Caroline told me that I had to trade my card in right then in order to order the new one, which I was suprised they couldn’t bend the rules just a bit. None the less, I will try to revisit the store soon before my trial is up and see how things work out with the V620.
