AT&T on 850MHz in some cities

AT&T has begun switching on 3G services in 850 MHz spectrum in certain markets across the country to boost coverage and capacity, notably in Atlanta, New York City and Houston.

If this applies to you and you need to boost the Option Globesurfer III or any other AT&T cellular data modem using a high gain directional Yagi antenna then you would need any of these:
  1. 800-900 MHz Yagi: 5 element, 10dBi of gain, 10W max input power.
  2. 806-894 MHz Yagi: 8 element, 13dBi of gain, 50W max input power
  3. Dualband omni: 5.12 dBi 806-894MHz / 6.12 dBi 1850-1990 MHz
  4. Wideband Log Periodic Antenna: 800-915MHz -> 8.0 dBi, 915-1710MHz -> 7.0 dBi, 1710-1850MHz -> 9.0 dBi, 1850-1990MHz -> 10.5 dBi, 1990-2500MHz -> 10.0 dBi
