Look for Data Plan that throttles to greater than 3G
Anyone know of a LTE data only plan that.... beyond 50 GB is throttled to above 3G around 1 mbps (Besides Simple mobile) that is around $50 to 60 bucks a month? Thanks

Visible setup thread
Message #10 has a link to a document for setting up the phone and router. The author recommends a GL.iNet GL-AR750S router but I use a much cheaper model the GL.iNet GL-AR150. The setup is the same for either.
You can use any router that can USB-tether a phone or you can connect the phone via WiFi if you have a router with WiFi as WAN capability.
Joel (AKA docj)- OTR Mobile website is back up... bad news, it appears new customer rate has gone up to $80 per month, while legacy customers are at $60 per month.

As for Visible, I checked that out and it's great, if you only have one person. Their website says the HotSpot can only tether one device at a time. If I read Verizon right my wife and I can use up to 8 devices on their HotSpot, although we will probably only use 2 to 4.
I have our Visible phone operating in USB tethered mode connected to a Pepwave Surf Mini OTG router/repeater that supports many devices connected at once. There are a number of other routers that will serve multiple devices as well using the Visible phone as its Internet source.Gulfcoast wrote:

It's unlimited data for the phone, 10GB when the hotspot feature is used.- "Unlimited" with only 10GB hotspot data?

Great topic!
I have Verizon. It serves us well but pricey. Checked the 55 plan BUT only avail. In FL and TX markets, a real pissa as they say here in NE.
Thinking about porting over to Straight talk. I can use our current Samsung phones correct?
What is the 55 plan? I see the Verizon Get More Unlimited for $55, but that's if you have 4 lines. 4 X $55 = $220. I may start with their Play More Unlimited for $80 for 1 line. The reason I only need 1 line is because my wife and I will be in a motorhome full time, almost always together. Later this summer, if I'm working I might get a second line.
