I have one on a 2 week trial. So far it is not horrible and around
twice as fast as my DSL. Tacked on our family bill, it is cheaper than
Comcast or DSL.
When 5G finally rolls out here it will really be fast.
It gives me mixed emotions now about 5G. It will kill my trusty old
flip phone but my internet will go a lot faster.
I am just not sure when all of that will happen. The last I heard, we
were not even on the schedule yet.

I've been using an LTE router on the boat for a long time. More
recently I've just configured my T-Mobile phone as a WiFi hotspot
which effectively does the same thing.


That is cool as long as you have your phone where you want the data
all the time and all of your devices WiFi. I like my data on my LAN.



All you need is a hot spot with a travel router connected to it. the hot
spot is $50 a month and the router cost $20


This is a base price of $40 with a discount off that for paperless
billing and some other thing. My wife bought it on her cell account so
I am not sure what the bottom line price really is.
This thing does seem to be tied to a particular cell and maybe they
just have me in the wrong cell. They say I can't take it on the road.
