Here are a few speed tests I have done in Philadelphia and DC, both of which, of course are not yet official XOHM markets. I have the XOHM ExpressCard modem and use it in a Kohjinsha SC3, although I also have the PC card adapter for my Dell laptop. Please forgive the inconsistency of testing data.

10/26/08--Mount Vernon Square area of DC--speedtest.net: 6356kb down, speakeasy.net: 7723kb. I don't have the upload speeds.

11/3/08--Northern Liberties area of Philadelphia--speedtest.net: 6644kb down, 42kb up, 206ms ping. Note that prior to this date I was unable to get any connection in my neighborhood and all connections made in Center City resulted in me being redirected to the activation page, so progress is definitely being made in Philadelphia.

11/8/08--Eastern Market area of DC--speedtest.net: 10519kb down(!), 1450kb up, 184ms ping.

Thank you much for the update!

Oddly enough, I'm in Penn Quarter right now and not getting any signal. I will have to check from home a little later.

What software are you using to see the signal strength?

Just the included XOHM connection software. Today in Penn Quarter the status light on the modem itself is red (no network) and the software says the same.

I know there are situations where the WiMAX service providers have to use femtocells to cover specific areas more difficult to cover or maybe XOHM hasn't worked on that area yet.
