My data is throttled out the gate right away because I use a verizon prepaid mvno for my telephone so I only get 5GB of 4G and the 4G is only 4MB and not 50 or whatever postpaid verizon customers get (not sure of what prepaid verizon lines get)
I thought that the grandfathered unlimited 4G lines through Verizon were being culled from the herd... I could be wrong about that. I read awhile back that they were getting rid of that even for grandfathered motherfuckers. The one I had was disconnected six months or so ago but I use to use 100s of gigs monthly and it was 20MB up to 70MB
Meanwhile I'm using Verizon 3G to supply the whole place with internet here where I am and it's pretty horribly slow, but, it is free and it NEVER drops .. it's a very solid connection. Ping times are 70-90ms so it's not terrible. Uploading kind of kills the usefulness of the whole connection, though
If this guy I know will let me use an unlimited 4G line on his Verizon account I'd probably be willing to pay $100 maybe even $200 monthly - the only concern is, I would not want to get him kicked off of there by tethering and everything
