Guide Services

If you’re a remote laptop warrior, you might have and EVDO that allows you to work over a cellular data connection. This is great if you’re on call and need to be able to get network access at a moments notice. This can also be useful if you have a number of users moving to a building with no internet connectivity and you need to get them up and running in a pinch. Linksys makes a router that can connect a group of people wired or wireless, and then let them get to the net via an EVDO card. Unfortunately you need a very specific type of card for the router to work. After losing hours of troubleshooting time to this problem, I finally found the right card at Guide Services. They are an official Sprint sales and repair office and the owner of the store is a super friendly guy. He got me the right card and I ‘ve got my remote workers up and productive. Turns out they use the same router and EVDO card when they need networking in a pinch. I think they might be my new vendor for EVDO corporate services from here on out until we’re big enough to deal with Sprint directly.
