I sell, install, and support the MWB-250 as well as Cellular 3G Voice and Internet gear by Ericsson for the sail and motor yacht market. In fact I'm looking at an MWB-250 right now (cover open) because it somehow lost it's receive capability. I'm waiting on Port Networks ok to ship them just the radio module (cross ship, I return the bad one) to fix this unit under warranty.
The unit works very good (normally) in my experience. And we've got many of them installed on yachts of all sizes.
