So Verizon is switching to tiered data
It took me almost a month to set up my Wi-Fi access when I got my Thunderbolt. I get the fauxG speeds at my house, so I wasn’t exactly in a hurry to get it done. In that first month of usage I used nearly 4GB of data on my phone. In the 2 months since I added my Wi-Fi network I’ve used less than 1GB on the fast fauxG pipes each month.
Well, I’m all done saving Verizon’s bandwidth.
I’ve gone over 5GB of data a few times with VZW and never gotten a charge or a warning, but I always used Wi-Fi because of the speed difference over 3G. Travel usually gets me, but I never wanted to be a bandwidth hog, until now.
