Canada WIFI -- Mobley -- a few weeks.

[TenOC]

I have the AT&T unlimited Mobley hotspot and it works VERY well in the USA. My works requires me to be on line about 2 to 3 hours a day.

Next spring I will be in Canada for a few weeks -- Lake Louise, Banff, and Jasper . I understand the Mobley is only good in the USA. What is the best way to get internet service in Canada for a few weeks.

We were just across Lake Erie and could SEE BUFFALO.

What unit were you using on your way thru Canada?

ATT Unlimited+ and MIFI hotspots.

I would hate to see that cell phone bill if you turn on International Data Roaming! Yikes! I suggest you give AT&T a call before you try that as it could cost you hundreds of dollars.

I agree, Bill! As I said, I don't know what AT&T's Canada data service charges are. But as you said, call them first. If it's not too unreasonable for the relatively short time he'll be there and the amount of data he'll need, or if his employer will pay for it...

You could try enabling "International Data Roaming" on the Mobley WiFi Manager pages under "Network". I don't know what the charges for Canada are though.

Hi TenOC

T-Mobile has identical coverage to the "big three" cell companies in Canada. It is unlimited data in Canada. Get a "no contract" plan. You may wish to check out Metro PCS as well.

Give the route there may be areas that have no cell phone service.

ATT worked well for us on our way through Canada to Alaska this summer. Verizon and T-Mobil sucked. I recommend ATT Unlimited+.
