Now, if we can verify that Alltel has no cap, that'd be nice. Even if they don't right now, who wants to bet that they do in the near future :hmm:
My parents finally got BellSouth/AT&T DSL a couple of weeks ago, but before that they used Alltel's Axcess service. I was still living at home up until last November, so I had a chance to use it. Ping times were good when our area first got the service, but things started slowing down after awhile. On average, I got around 1.2Mbit/sec download speeds.

Had my XBox360 and PS3 hooked up to the CradlePoint router we used with the data card and I downloaded gigs and gigs worth of demos and games. Never heard a peep from Alltel. When we first signed up for the service, we asked if there was a cap -- they said that there was not. Like you said, though, that'll probably change.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21151660 Mon, 22 Sep 2008 19:15:02 EDT Re: one friend http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21151623 TKJunkMail :

Since Verizon is looking to buy Alltel, I'd say a cap will be on the way. »www.ft.com/cms/s/2/82979d2e-7368···621.html

Ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel lucky?' Well, do ya punk?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21151623 Mon, 22 Sep 2008 19:06:58 EDT one friend http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21151559 amungus : One guy I know just got a USB data card from Alltel for home use because he didn't want the local telco DSL service that was basically forcing a phone line along with it... There is no AT&T where he is, only the local company.

So, in this case, the data card is cheaper and from what I've heard, Alltel has no 5GB cap!

Granted, you're at the mercy of a wireless network, but for a casual internet user, it shouldn't matter too much.

Says it's slow from time to time, but that he feels good about the choice.
