Hey Crockett
 

Was wondering what data plan you use. I'm on Verizon unlimited but I get throttled after 10GB of data tethered to my laptop. I ran across this plan that looked interesting for nomads.

I have a grandfathered plan from Cricket wireless which gives me 20 gigs of data that is ok to tether. I've never seen that plan so I can't say much about it. The biggest thing is to double check to see if it's ok to tether and what the limit is on "unlimited" there is always a gig limit before they slow you way down.

The one I was looking at for some extra data is from ATT. It's a old plan that was never made popular but it it's a wireless hot spot you plug into your car's OBDII plug. It's called mobley.

Now the kicker is if you go on ebay and search mobley, there are adapter plugs you can buy that let you run the hot spot off a USB cable so you can run it in your car off a battery pack or even in your home. The hot spot is only pulling power via the OBDII plug so it doesn't have to be connected to a car and ATT has no idea if it's in a car or sitting in your house or in a tent out in the woods.

You can get up to 3 of these devices on a single plan, each device gets 22 gigs and is $20/month. so you can get 66 gigs of mobile data via a hot spot for $60. The down side is you have to buy the devices and they are $100/each and seem to be hard to find, due to it being a older plan that never gained traction.

The verizon thing looks interesting but usually these "unlimited" plans are capped at 20ish gigs and then they lower your speeds..

he's on the Public Library plan

TY, I just signed up for the FMCA plan. No throttling but "network management" after 22 GB.

As usual nothing of value to add, just off topic negativity & hate.

Great post OP glad you found what you needed :thumbsup
