Hi all,

Today I bought my 128 kbps Ricochet modem and have troubles to
get it working. I have a few questions...

Are anyone out there successfully using them in Manhattan and if yes,
what's your location? I am located at 86 and 1st. AVE. My second
question is if I need to activate the service sending them my modem's
serial number to register it on Ricochet Network and get " blinking
green" light as in instructions or modem should " blink green" even if not
activated. My modem only blinks red and I cann't connect. Does it mean
i don't have a cell near me on streetlight pole? Thanks very much.

George.
