Cheap $20 a month Stand Alone Unlimited Rural Internet through AT&T Wireless

[TractorGuy]

I have tried several apps on my Samsung phone that supposedly does cell tower mapping. None of them are in agreement and none of them show the tower that I can see outside my front window. This link does show that Tower and tends to make me think that this link is more accurate than any of the apps. But for such garbage to be put out giving you information like that is just nuts.

There are towers that are designated for emergency band only and those are most likely not listed. I have one of those nearby. I called the number on their fence to ask what carriers were using it and was told it was police and emergency bands only.

I've been with OTR Mobile for about a year. AT&T is the carrier, and service has been good. We've recently been notified that we have to switch plans to T-Mobile, because AT&T will no longer honor the "unlimited" plan. I don't know whether or not this is relevant to you "Mobley" folks.

Thanks for the info!!

My Mobley died over the past few weeks, a reboot and it would work for a little while, then "no internet".. I took Ron's advice, and bought a refurb
Netgear Nighthawk and got my PUK code from ATT chat, pretty simple to get that going. It is a little different than the Mobley in that once
you hook it to a router, you no longer have wifi with the Nighthawk, it turns into more of a true modem.
Once i fiddled around with the ASUS cellspot to get that working, speeds are great, the Mobley was typically running in the high teens for
speed, but running thru the Asus router i can't complain about these!!!

Tell me more about how you got the PUK code please.Then how do you go about unlocking the sims card? Couple of months ago my mobley quit,and I think it got locked by ATT .They are NO help.I have another brand new mobley,and the card doesn't work in either one. Thanks

I went with the LB1120 because of the $$$. Not as fast, but it is rock solid for 3 months or so. Mobley was having serious problems.

i did a chat with att support, explained i wanted PUK code for sim card, gave here the phone number associated with it, and she gave it to me,
then i had to ask her for PUK 2, as she didn't just offer that up, and said PUK 1 should get me unlocked, but she did give it to me rather happily..

I never got offered up a PUK 2, she told me to PUK OFF. But Puk 1 worked fine in a Netgear LB1120 and a Netgear Nighthawk Router behind it. Speeds consistently above 20mbs and usually over 40.

You don't need both but since you're asking and they have two why not get them both? Who knows when or how it might become useful later or if AT&T stops giving them out at some point.
