ATT IPhone Hotspot vs Mobley

Adding a Mobley to an existing plan would not an advantage over using your phone or a MiFi device with your existing plan. The only thing that made the Mobley a unique and valuable addition to those of us who rely entirely on cellular for internet was the $20/month 22GB (limited unlimited) plan. I love hearing everyone calling these unlimited plan. I don't know how Verizon and others have been able to convince consumers that the word unlimited equals limited to 22 or 25 GB at a reasonable speed.

Of course the problem at the moment is that not only are Mobley's hard to come by, the $20 Connected Car unlimited plan appears to be gone now as well, so your questions may be moot.

That said, we've used 70+GB in a month a few times on our Connected Car unlimited plan and have never noticed any unusual slow downs so far. We do have a couple of Verizon Jetpacks on unlimited 3G plans that we can use as backups if we happen to hit a poor AT&T signal area, but it hasn't happened so far.

I have an unlimited 25gb data plan thru AT&T (it can slow down at 25 gb). I can use my hotspot on my phone up to the plan limit of 25gb then it says it could slow down.

The Mobley is unlimited but could be slowed down at 22 gb. I’ve been reading a good bit about the Mobley and it sounds rare that it slows down. I’ve never hit the limit on my current plan to know if imine would slow down.

My question is, would I really have any benefit of getting the Mobley, or is my data plan just as good and I could possibly use the hotspot well past the 25gb limit?

Any insight appreciated!

Which "unlimited" plan do you have? (what is the name of the plan?)
