Anyone with Verizon or AT&T 'grandfathered' unlimited data plan successfully tethered an iPhone 6+ or iPad with this router? Did you pay extra fees?

if you put the sim card in an AT&T; 313U for example and use the same apn name in the router as you have on your phone, AT&T; should not know you are using a router and it should work fine. I heard of many people doing this with no extra cost since I understand it is very hard to get unlimited data.you can get the 313U unlocked AT&T; cheap here on Amazon and would be the best solution.

Kind of late to reply, but I use my E63 with T-Mobile To Go. Works fine, and I get EDGE speeds through t-zones. Limited sites, but you can buy a daypass for $1.49 to get the full web for 24 hours.

Could you please let me know if this worked out for you?I am considering the same solution to tunnel all my internet traffic through VPN:one VPN-router between the router of my Internet Service Provider and the Apple Airport.It would be nice to know if you could let me know if you got your connection working!

Doesn't look like anyone responded to you... but it does appear that is possible. I won't take credit or blame if it works or doesn't, but others have tested that successfully.

I use an Apple airport wifi adaptor and have had no problems. Works great. I get excellent network connection and stream music all day long. I really like this unit because of the iPad and iPhone apps that let me control it. Much better display and interface than the front panel.

If you are using Virgin Mobile's 3G I believe all U.S. plans include unlimited 3G for no additional cost (although there is, if I recall correctly, some fine print about limiting the speed past a basic threshold of usage). At home -- or in 'friendly' (accessible) WiFi situations you are not using the 3G and there would be no additional cost to you beyond what you are already paying for your internet connection.

Only if you have cellular and/or wi- fi added on your contract, I don't know about Verizon but AT&T; only charged me $10. To add my 128 mg to my account. I have unlimited text, talk & data. But ask Verizon about it before you buy it if you are unsure. Best of luck, I love my iPad.

I also use an ATT router. I added an Airport Extreme because it allows a guest unsecured connection. The Mutant uses an older style security format. The guest option is the only way for me to connect but it works.

Works great with apple products. Responding this question with a iPhone on a d-link router with wifi

Hi, I think there are better router choices around than this one. I found the user interface tough to navigate & it seemed like I needed to reset it quite a few times to keep it running so I ended up getting a different one from Netgear. I didn't try to use this with any Apple Products so I'm sorry but I don't know on that one. Take care!

You may be able to continue just as you have with your older plan. I would just continue using it. They will contact you or upgrade your plan if they decide you should be on one of their more expensive tethering plans. Normally, what they look for is a computer tethered to the Internet through the phone and using their Internet servers. If they don't see that, I wouldn't worry about it. It sounds like you are using a dialup provider number - which only results in per minute call charges. This is like using the old CSD system - and it still works. The Slingbox probably doesn't use the amount of data a computer uses (mobile vs standard data streams). Don't change your plan unless you have to. Older plans only remain in effect while they are in use. You can't return to those cheaper plans, no longer offered, once you upgrade to one of the newer plans offered. One of the great things about the 5800 is you get to use a smartphone without using a more expensive data plan like the iPhone or the Windows phones, and you aren't automatically locked into a data plan like you would be if you had purchased a locked "AT&T supported" phone. I'm doing more with my 5800 Nav than I ever did with my Windows Mobile 6.1 Tilt, and faster - but, I'm also using a 3.5G signal with the 5800 that my Tilt never saw or used. Not even my Tundra uses the 3.5G signal.

Its never paid upfront :( the only option is to find one that is both wifi+at&t; (Or another carrier) and then pay the monthly fee.

I just got my E71-2 and it's BEAUTIFUL! I went to the local ATT store to get the Medianet Unlimited plan for $15, and was told that I would also need a need a compatible plan and phone to get this service. The lowest priced plan is the Nation 450 w/Rollover® Minutes @$40 and that they could not guarantee that I would receive the Medianet full services for my my Nokia Phone Model and local area code. Anyone have the same problem or have an alternate solution? Hey thanks for the info ... it has been very useful.

I assume you are talking about an internet connection. When you configure your iPad it will prompt you to sign up for a plan. You do not have to go to AT&T.;

As it has worked for me, I just plug in the cable and it works - your service provider has no control (and therefore cannot charge extra) over how you use the internet connection that you are already paying for. I found it to work seamlessly (used it mostly while travelling; in hotels where they have an internet connection/cable in the room but no wireless - yes there are many places like that in the world) with my tablet, iPad and phone.

You could hook up to the wifi on your phone but only temporarily. Our Ipad plan could be set up with AT&T so you could access it anywhere. We don't have AT&T so it would be a separate bill. Go to the menu on your Ipad and see what service is available. There is a lot of free Wifi out there in hotels and restaurants.

Unlimited data from Verson, as it applied to me, was a total lie. Vrizon would cut off usage of my "unlimited data" plan. What Verizon was trying to do is have me upgrade to a more expensive plan. Well, I took care of that. After 30 years plus with Verizon, I went to AT&T; where the services are better, and the bills were lower.
