at&t data plan

[Al Rogers]

I've gotten really frustrated too with things like this happening and not knowing why data has run off so fast without any answers. I found a service that I started using called TruConnect though that lets me use WiFi with my iPad through a 3G connection, so anywhere AT&T 3G works, for $4.99/month and I only pay for the data I use at 3.9 cents/MB. I used only 167 MB last month so my bill was $6.51 + $4.99 = $11.50. This might also solve your problem because you use a MiFi device that you can turn off so independently of iPad so data can't be charged when the MiFi is not on. Also you can connect up to 5 devices using this MiFi so my wife and I use it for both our iPads with only one data plan. It's a sweet deal for us!

That sounds like a plan I would like to have. If I follow you correctly I would have to buy the small Mifi device Truconnect sells and use WiFi thru that device,QUESTION. where does your 3 G data plan come from. What happens to the AT&T the carrier I am now stuck with using their data plan. Thanks for any info you can provide.

AT&T's data plan is month to month, no contract, but it auto-renews. So if you want to quit it, you cancel online (easy) or call. Otherwise, they'll just keep billing you monthly.

Thanks for the answer Kay but I need to know what plan he was using with the mi-fi from truconnect. I have been with at&t for two years both domestic and international,I hardly use the domestic but I still have to pay the whole month cost for very little use that's why I am going to change to truconnect. I have checked their web site and its a very good plan.

Al, I was answering your question about what happens with your AT&T data plan now that you've decided to switch.

I was getting confused in the post where he said.

If the (so) was left out it would have been fine. A Play on words there.


It least we got to chat for awhile.
