Today I tested the theory that tethering the hotspot would do better on long downloads and uploads when tethered. It was not easy to get the 1 gig download to finish with the 6620L and I wasted a day trying to get a video to upload with the 7730L. Today I tethered the 7730L and had no issues uploading a video.
On a different note Crackle plays on both the 6620L and the 7730L.

Yesterday it was the 7730L that I tethered my laptop too.

I have some of those odd dead spots around me, luckily not at my house. But I know the exact three spots on my road i'll lose a call and everyone in the area regardless of cell networks knows the spots too.
Wonder why those spots exist?

They exist because it is not profitable and sometimes not even possible to blanket every inch even of a metro like Denver which had many dead spots. In some places like the Rockies it is the live spots that are rare. Mini and micro cells are the answer in cities but not out on the road. They are much cheaper to build and pin point filling of need but are also shorter range.
