unlimited streaming......

[upsidedown_Char]

I had no idea how complicated it is. After almost changing cellular carriers twice, I found the company I think I need. Here is what I have learned. There is no unlimited data plan that at some point does not throttle your speed. You can pay a lot and get a big plan but at some point you will over run your allotment and they slow the connection.

A company called Unlimitedville seems to offer what I want. They offer unlimited data at speeds that will stream video. There are 4 plans available. There is a set up fee on the hot spot device that is the same as the monthly access fee. So if you buy the hundred dollar a month plan you get a device set up fee of a hundred bucks. Set up us once per device.

Plan 1 is $200 for the first month to cover set up and then $100 per month thereafter. This is for Sprint

Plan 2 is T Mobile and costs $150 per month with the one time set up of $150

Plan 3 is ATT at $200 per month plus $200 set up

plan 3 is Verizon at $250 per month plus set up.

I have read the reviews and believe the company is valid. The reason the prices vary is based on the size of their coverage area. If anybody uses this service and finds my description off, please correct. I did do a forum search and he threads were old and out of date.

I have questions.....Obviously I like the Sprint price. The U-ville websight says Sprint will provide well along interstates and urban areas. On the maps that compare coverage area it's really obvious that Verizon is Goliath and Sprint is David's tiny son.

We are new motor home owners and will likely stay in parks near the interstate or along the coast.

Does anyone have anything to say about Sprint or T Mobile? We just won't spend more than a hundred and fifty to stream.

Is there any other option in the hundred dollar a month range that will let us stream TV ?

Thanks all. Great forum but it's massive. If the post neds to be moved, just leave me a trail.

As far as I can tell U-ville is the only teather option. We have a Traveler Dish for Direct. The more time we spend on the road the more options I want.

We lived on a 43 foot boat and kept it in a dozen different marinas and even back as far as 10 years ago, wifi was everywhere in bigger marinas. I'm kind of surprised that it's not more readily available in RV parks. I am aware that wifi strength is dependent on tower proximity.

We just have a money line we won't cross. The Borg, Time Warner used to offer an unlimited no throttle hot spot but you had to be a customer. I got one on my mom's cable account at her nursing home and paid the bill. Lost it when mom moved. It was 4G unlimited and sweet. For some reason this part of wireless technology has gotten less available over the years.

And 5 G is just around the corner. Right.

Where are the devices that will allow "streaming" but also allow you to tether! I've been a Direct TV customer forever and since AT&T took over, I keep getting offers of unlimited data(OK...22g's) but on this Plan you can't tether. I can't speak to anyone but myself, but having that much Bandwidth does nothing for me on a phone itself....I'm pretty LOW tech...

IMO Verizon will give you the best/most complete coverage. As you noted that is why it cost more. You also have to consider that just because you're paying for streaming it doesn't necessarily mean you will be able to. It all depends on the connection quality. If you're on a fringe area you will probably not be able to stream.

An option is an OTA antenna, or Dish/Direct TV satellite. Probably cost less than what you're going to pay for Verizon plans.

We use the U-ville Sprint plan that is truly unlimited for $42/month ($45?). That plan required that you be a legitimate business (yes) and sign a 2 year contract (yes). That plan is no longer available but I am still pretty happy.
