I have a cell phone with Verizon. I don't have cable or a home landline. What do I need to get internet for my computer and PlayStation 3?

Before you dive into a cellular internet solution, do a Site Survey to make sure it will work. 

 

For a fixed location using Verizon Wireless, you have three options:

Both a computer and Playstation 3 can use a lot of data if you are not careful often times much more then the metered data options offered by Verizon Wireless and other cellular carriers.  Is there no other options for adding a DSL, cable or other landline internet to your home?

I'm most definitely NOT a VZW employee. If a post answered your question, please mark it as the answer.
