    There are two of these threads a week.

    I use my Cell Phone through Verizon as Hotspot.
    I still have the old unlimited plan.
    No Throttling or anything like that. I'm over 40gigs this month. And my cycle doesn't end until the middle of the month.

    Verizon Jetpack.
    5 gigs is $60/month (includes taxes).

    I can use my laptop while DH drives and it works in about 90 % of the US. YIPPEE!!:biggrin_2559:

    5 gigs goes fast if you download games, watch you tube videos, etc. I was looking forward to getting Netflix and Hulu, but not enough gigs to bother. To me... this is like saying you can take a bath once a month or a 60 second shower every day. Eeeewww:biggrin_25511:

    (sour grapes here:biggrin_25516:)

    I'd rather take a 60 second shower everyday, I hate bathtubs. :biggrin_25510:

    I have t mobile unlimited data with 2.5 gb hot spot. They absolute suck when it comes to coverage. I need to be in a actually mega city to get 4g internet. Everywhere else I get this "e" icon but its slower than 56k. Verizon seem to be popular I might try them
