Cheap $20 a month Stand Alone Unlimited Rural Internet through AT&T Wireless

[ultrarunner]

On the bright side tech keeps improving and your tech dollar tends to buy more.

Lots of tenants back when I managed s lot of property had free or nearly free services... heck... even laptops were freebies in some cases.

You would think living in the heart of tech SF Bay area in a big city coverage would be great... even caused problems for me at work when work stop using pagers which I found worked everywhere.

Sometimes geography trumps as in terrain or physical distance from central office with DSL...

Anyone still using the plan? The Mobley is not on the ATT list of approved devices anymore. Witht he 3G network shutting down I figgured this would kill this plan. I am not on this plan, but had my MOFI device stop working due to the 3G cut off. My Nighthawk arrives today.

Still using my Mobley Sim in a Netgear 4gLTE Modem with a nighthawk router behind it and it connects to 4g not 3g

It is the mobley device itsself not the sim that is the issue. Since you put the SIM in a different device it should not be a problem.

How do you like the Netgear? Mine arrives today so I hope it is good.

The Netgear stuff is rock solid. Modem is a LB 1120 and the Router is a Nighthawk R7450. Speeds are typically 35 down and 25 up with a 36 msec ping time. Not bad for $23 a month

Yes still using the Mobley, it is on 4G now:

The SIM Card has never been out of the Mobley.

My Mobley still works as OOB but service could not be slower. Both my iPhone 5S and 1st gen SE work ok so far to access this site. They must be 4G, which should be backward compatible.

Spectrum came through for our street with fiber optics, yesterday we were connected!
If anyone wants to buy the refurbished ATT NETGEAR device I bought in December (it accepts the Mobley sims card) Let me know, I will be dropping ATT and have no need for it.

Still using mine. Hoping they last at least until I get Starlink.

Just ran a speed test on the Mobley:

Very good for 24 dollars a month

Today's speed with the 4g Nighthawk. Have seen up to 220 depending, but this is the norm.

My Mobley has yet to test at >6 Mbps down or >2 Mbps up. The local cell tower is two miles away and I can just see the top of it from the window the Mobly hangs in when I'm not on the road with it.

"mjdfhegej ... (ptooey) ... I'm keeping my bait warm, what more does it take to be faster than I can use?"

What does that mean?

If you have the $20 Mobley plan already, you can keep it.. at least until you screw up and allow a rep to change it. Main reason I *only* deal with reps in a real ATT corporate store and not online or at an 'authorized' store/Best Buy.

This. ^^

We who got in stay in. Buuuut their are newer and similar AT&T wi-fi plans for a few more bucks that do offer something to those without fiber or cable access but decent cel coverage. btw, expect better rates than Verizon as usual. (VZW stockholder, AT&T customer )
