Greetings, gang!
I just got a Verizon UM-175 modem and the $59.99 data plan. I'm loving it! I believe I will tell Hughes and its near-dialup speeds to pound sand.
Hennyway, this is just something the rep told me over the phone when I got the modem - that at idle, it does eat up data allowance. He said always disconnect when you are not using it. Not sure how much it eats, but it could have a cumulative impact.
I thought this was a good thing to know and to pass on.
