Looking for recommendations on the best mobile internet provider out there...
*I am only interested in connecting my laptop on the road
*Broadest overall coverage throughout the lower 48 States. (I like to venture out into the boonies in my free time)
*Most data for the buck (Like to watch online movies and rock out to 80's Youtube videos) Is there such a thing as 'unlimited data'?
*SPEED is very important - Time is money
Thank you for your help

They all suck depending where you are. They are all outstanding depending where you are. Before you sign up find out if unlimited ROAMING data is included. Regardless, there will be places you will have a hard time streaming urine let alone anything video. You will also find places where your online experience will be determined by which end of the ts you park in. Pilot in Salina, KS has great data reception at the west end and practically nothing from the fuel island east.
knuckledragger Thanks this. -
Good idea THANKS!

double on the streaming urine plan.
don't think anyone offers unlimited data anymore. verizon has the best. sprint isn't toooooo bad. they cover some areas that verizon can't touch. and verizon covers areas that sprint can't touch. but there are tons of areas where i have full 4g yet can't get internet for nothing. but if i move over 50 feet i can get anywhere from dial up to 4g.
basically, it's a crap shoot.knuckledragger Thanks this. -
hands down Verizon
knuckledragger Thanks this. -
I use Verizon for my phone service and its pretty decent. Although I still use a flip top phone so haven't tried their internet. I use Comcast for internet and its screaming fast. Although extremely expensive.
What kind of deal do you have from Verizon? Is it good for playing movies? -
Problem you will run into
Streaming Video uses a lot of Data
It will get expensive.TequilaSunrise and knuckledragger Thank this. -
I have ATT and seem to have great coverage 99% of the time. I beleive att is little more expensive but I think it's better coverage overall. IMO
Verizon's advertisement about better 4g coverage may be true but not for just any coverage. Very rarely can I not get internet service, even in all spots of the truckstop.knuckledragger Thanks this. -
Verizon 150 bucks for 20 gigs plus whatever your line fees are for Devices I have 3 smartphone lines and 10 gigs data use my phone as a hotspot for my laptop I'm always pushing my limit of 10 gigs and rarely stream videos my bill is just over 300 a month I'll probably go to the 20 gig plan before long which will make my bill 50 dollars higher

They use Verizon's network. You have to buy the equipment but for $89.99 a month you get 20 gigs.producelove85 and knuckledragger Thank this.
