In short, anyone who would benefit from broadband service if it were available will find Verizon's unlimited hotspot service to their liking. Hotspots not only provide rural internet users with a means other than broadband service to stay connected, but is also essential to remote workers, digital nomads, individuals on location, and others. The plan from Verizon has been popular with customers that have been unable to secure high-bandwidth internet by other means. The only throttling that takes place with the plan is the normal service fluctuations that all users experience as it corresponds to the demand on carrier towers. Verizon recently made an updated plan available to customers that is truly unlimited and without caps of any time. And if you are not the owner of an account that was established more than a few years ago, it is likely you have an "unlimited" plan that includes limits on your data and throttling once your data cap is reached. Verizon's not necessarily a bad company, just a company making bad choices.Truly unlimited cell phone plans have almost gone the way of the dinosaur. (Actually, no, probably Windows 95 first.) If there's any money left, do OS X and Linox, but of course much later. Side effect of having to create custom s/w for each platform: Most used systems (XP, Vista) get developed first. Couldn't just use same browsers other ISPs used - had to install Verizon's own version (I think it was Netscape). Reminds me that in about 1990 I had Verizon DSL in another location. Why does Verizon need to make it as hard as possible, including making users install unnecessy/undesirable software to use the service? Every time you install foreign software from a source you can't check it's a security risk. No special software installed, just provide your credentials & the access point doesn't have to know or care what the OS is. Salesperson did NOT mention that.ĪT&T does it for Macs. Went to info page: only for certain PC operating systems. Good deal, part of motivation to switch providers. Salesperson noted package included free WiFi at Verizon hotspots. Just signed up for 2 years of phone/DSL/cable (via DirectTV) from Verizon.
