Verizon Updates Software To Allow LTE On Macs

By

Disappointed that the Verizon iPhone doesn’t make use of the network’s nascent 4G network? Well, your iPhone might not be able to suck in LTE, but your Mac now can, thanks to Verizon making time in an already busy week to release the latest version of their Verizon Access Manager for Mac software.

Why is this important? Well, thanks to the updated software, if you have Verizon’s Pantech UML290 4G LTE modem and are running Mac OS X 10.4 or higher, you’re now ready to skate along the cutting edge of mobile broadband.

Unfortunately, all the news is not good: LTE will only work on your Mac if you have that one Verizon 4G modem. The other one — the LG VL600 — still doesn’t support Mac, although it is expected to do so later in February.
