Dear disciples of the free BeaSD,
I'm very unhappy with the widely varying network latency of my internet connection via the old 3G technology. ATM I'm using a HSDPA+ modem in my laptop (3.5G). Usually, I have fully sufficient bandwidth e.g. on big downloads, but interactive use cases are often a big mess... packet loss rates of >50% are common. Thus I decided to invest in an upgrade to LTE (4G).

- Can I expect lower & more predictable latencies & better connection quality with LTE/4G in practice?
- Any hints pointing to a good, high quality LTE-modem, espc. concerning compatibility with FreeBSD, are greatly appreciated.
