Home internet / WiFi hotspots - 4G Community

[TresMonos]

I do not know.
Both 4G and Boost resell the Sprint service. Does it mean that I need just to swap the SIM card?

I am actually thinking about going back to my arch-nemesis, ATT. 1st year Internet is $40/ month.
Maybe cell Internet will drop more in price in a year.... Disable their ****ty WiFi router and use it just as a modem, with my own Asus router.

Can't you just buy a cheap DSL modem and be done with it? If you are just buying internet from them you shouldn't have to use their equipment.

I was not on their email list. All the website says is that they're discontinuing service. I wonder what happened.

I just need something for a couple of months. We are getting fiber optics by January. Unlimited 100mbs for $50 per month.

Check your emails from 4g community, boys and girls

For those of us not on their email list....wassup?

Have a DSL modem. Had ATT DSL before, worked good. Moved 5 years ago, and ATT offers ONLY Uverse at my new address and wants me to use their Uverse modem.

That suxass....sorry man.

No word from 4GCommunity about refunding me my unused 6 months of service.
I think Sprint did not renew their contract/closed a loophole that 4Gcommunity was using to operate.

I was able to open a dialogue with them through tech support. They acknowledged my dialogue, but no response yet on any refund.
