My kids like to watch TV shows online and I also have a Slingbox. I'm going to watch the data usage closely to see how much bandwidth we are consuming. Since I'm only going to use the wireless broadband when we're traveling or on vacation I'm hoping the 5GB/month quota on Verizon is more than enough.

The CTR-350 may have been a better choice. It's $20 cheaper, and also provides an Ethernet port, which can act to create a wired network from your Verizon dongle, or can be setup so that it uses the Ethernet port as the primary Internet interface, and uses the Verizon connection only when the regular network is down. For most of what's being described here, the latter case is less valuable, but I use the Ethernet port on mine for connecting security cameras, and sometimes a VoIP phone, neither of which support wifi.
