<div dir="ltr">Correct, Doug. Email and general web surfing are fine. We don't do any streaming video because of our data cap. I normally have the ethernet port on the BBB plugged in to a Cradlepoint CTR35 router configured for Wifi as WAN. I was never able to get the BBB operational when I tried to connect the BBB directly to the ethernet port on a different router tethered to the hotspot. <div>

<div><div dir="ltr"><font face="Tahoma">John,<br><br> We may have been down this road before but is there a way to get wired Ethernet off of the router or is there a router you can get that has wired Ethernet for your service? That would always be the way to go with the BBB as it would be a whole lot easier and avoid a hub and wifi adapter. I am assuming this is not a connection problem you have in general with everything you are trying to connect but just the BBB on wifi??<br>
