The area I was in did not officially support it but I knew it would work so when I moved before I just brought it with me and turned it on and it worked fine and after I left I told the new residents to just go in and purchase it and if need be give a different addressAnd it would work. And they did.

Our signal was pretty weak about minus 108 dBm at all times, but it was still enough to be functional and be better than everybody else's internet in the area.
