Anybody still in touch with Scott Medlock? I need to get access to a web site he hosts and I can't seem to reach him.

Sprint 3G/4G Overdrive Mobile Hotspot
by Jim Herrmann 21 Jan '11

21 Jan '11

I got my Overdrive hotspot tonight, and I promised to write up an impression. So far, it's so so. I had to charge it all the way before it would come on. That's OK as it charged pretty fast. I followed the start up instructions and got the network and password changed, the software updated, no problem. The web interface is pretty nice. When it first came up it would only connect to 3G. I had to get into the setup and tell it to connect to 4G Only, and then it found a 4G connection. I started doing bandwith tests at speedtest.net using the KCMO server. The first one was pretty miserable, at 0.73MB up and 0.48MB down. That was lame. I put the modem in the window a little further, and I got it to do 1.3M up and 0.92 down. I plugged it in and the speed jumped to 3.5M down but 0.6M up. So, it really helps to have it plugged in and in the window. I'll let you know more once I try it out in some various locations. OBTW, I tested my RR connection to compare and I got 4.5M down, but only 0.29M up. So the 4G is better on the upload. That's all for now, Jim

4G Cards
by Jim Herrmann 18 Jan '11

What Spring 4G cards work with Linux? I am making the bold assumption that there must be someone on here that knows this off the top of their head. :-) It appears that 3G is well supported, albeit with some USB tweaks. But I'm not hopeful from what I've found for drivers getting 4G speeds being supported on Linux. Help me choose. Thanks, Jim

robots.txt question
by Jonathan Hutchins 17 Jan '11

17 Jan '11

I'm wondering about the syntax. The example file from drupal uses the format Disallow: /aggregator However, it says in the comments that only the root /robots.txt file is valid. >From my understanding of the syntax, /aggregator does not block /foo/aggregator, so I need to either prepend "/foo" to everything, or use wildcards per the new google/webcrawler extensions to the protocol. If anybody can cite an on-line example that explains I'd be grateful.
