Version 1.8.1 has been released today and we finally have a working 3G/4G switch! This will handle automatic transitions with no special tools required and allow you to move in and out of 3G/4G areas without reconfiguration :)

Matt,
What are you reccomending these days for a 3G/4G router? My work is upgrading me to a 4G aircard but I have the older cradlepoint that I don't think will run the new firmware so I was curious what you're suggesting for an RV sized hotspot?
