    I think you referencing the old Sprint/T-Mobile plan and not the New AT&T plan.  I talk to them at the Lincoln Nebraska rally last week and that's one of the questions asked was can it be used in Pepwave BR1and I need the Nano sim and he said it wasn't a problem.  I would need to get him my IMEI off my Pepwave and he said they overnight the SIM to me.  If you haven't heard from them I would try to contact them.  

    Great, last time I talked to them that was not the case but they were working on it. Going to turn my in in the next few months so not making any changes

    I agree with Jim. But it seams to be a few who keep up the complaining. I have ben on the road and haven't experienced all the hoarer stories/problems. Yes you will find some places there is no signal. I haven't tested for speed but like now, wife is streaming a movie and I am on hear. I can watch You Tube at the same time she is watching her movie. What is the problem?

    I do not have a problem either, but if I did there is nothing wrong with discussing it on this forum. I am always surprised when folks complain about other discussing issues looking for a common resolve of the issues. Is that complaint more valid then theirs?

    I ordered the new FMCA plan with the idea that I will have to upgrade to FMCA "expected new faster plan" and add an unlocked MiFi too that. Knowing that might take some time, I also got the Calyx Substainer Plan. I am full time and having streaming access is a must for me. Having two providers will provide some signal flexibility. If the ATT plan proves completely worthless I will just drop it. Thanks for you input.

    This is exactly what I am doing. Calyx struggles in the mountains where I am as  t mobile is overwhelmed in this area. The ATT works fine. I brought the Calyx to my shop in C Florida and will use it there until October, when I leave the mountains. At the shop I get 182mb with the Calyx. At that time I may send the ATT back and get a second Calyx. I would love to support the FMCA program and it current ATT offering lets me stream, but in the end the price for the amount of MB is not making much sense.

    One of the fellow campers got the AT&T Sim from FMCA and was getting the same results as you.  We stood side by side and run Speed Test on AT&T phone I was getting around 50 and his Speed Test would jump to around 40 then stabilize  at 12.   Just for reference I'm getting around 80 to 90 on my grandfathered Version plan which is rare these days.  My Calyx T-Mobile plan is getting between 350 and 400.  I have only used the service west of the Mississippi and the T_Mobile plan (either FMCA or Calyx) have been faster than Verizon or AT&T.  

     

    Can you share a link to which speed test you are using?  Thanks

    I see many posts where people are calling ATT or going to the store. They have absolutely nothing to do with this plan. You have to go through tech connect. You signed up with tech connect, they are administering the plan, not ATT

    Give Tech Connect a break, they are swamped.

    If you are not happy with your download speed get Starlink.$599 for equipment and $135 month. A friend has had great results.

    Well it cost $250.00 for the unit and $500.00 for the year.

    Your paying $719.88 for a year.

    Next year I'll be paying $500.00 a year you will still be paying $719.88

     

    Yup, its really simple math. I have the new Techconnect/att and the Calyx. Price wise, the Calyx is a better deal. I just need 2 right now for diff locations

    Nobody has contacted me.  I did the online form with a different shipping address.  I submitted a ticket on Wednesday describing my situation and gave the date when I am to depart this place.  No response so called and left a message on Friday and today.

    I ordered the same day as you and received it Saturday, came Fed Ex

    Who told you this? If that is true I  will stay with Techconnect and give AT&T a shot. We have been very happy with T-Mobile service where we have gone and hope we get the same from AT&T.

    Another RVer that called them. I trust the source, not sure I trust the support

    I guess I am not on their email list, I never got the April 1st email nor did I get this one. I was in contact with Techconnect just a short while ago and I was told I could put the T Mobile Sim into a M2000 so I went out and bought the M2000 now I am out of luck with it and no email to tell me sorry for the bad info. Maybe it is time to switch to another vendor.

    From what I have been told, you will be able to use the M2000 but you will need a different SIM. In two weeks you will be able to get the proper sim from TechConnect, so you supposedly can use the M2000. Check with them yourself to confirm

     

    I received my Moxie yesterday afternoon. The T mobile had the same download speeds but I could never stream Paramount + or other sources without constant buffering. And forget it if I wanted to use the computer at night, .25 signal on the T mobile.

    With the ATT I can stream all day and last night with zero buffering, we will see how it goes

    I might as well be in Detroit. I'm in a small town in North Carolina not exactly a metropolis.

    Yesterday I had a speed of 58 mbps at 7 am by 8pm it was 0.27 mbps. I had dial up faster than that in the 80's.

    I could understand throttling from 50 to 15 or 20mbps but to make it unusable is a bit extreme.

    I am in NC also with the same issue. But, I think its because of congestion due to kids and folks being home and using the system

    Bought mine in Oregon, titled to LLC in Montana, I'm a California resident. Was informed the coach should be stored in Montana, and not brought in to California (permanently) for one year. No sales tax, minimal annual registration fees. Also, there's an increased registration fee for rigs over $300K.

    You also have to have legitimate receipts for where you "stayed", fuel, maintenance, etc. Its not about just staying out of CA for a year. You have to show real usage.
