Hi y’all,
Just bought a Cradlepoint Ibr900. I’m not super tech savvy & seem to be having difficulty finding data plans for it. The company I bought the CP from sent me to a 3rd party who sells extremely expensive data plans. I saw somewhere suggested vzw & At&T business plans. I don’t have a business so that’s not an option. I need to get at least 30gb or an unlimited with around 30gb before it tethers. Am I able to just get a regular phone plan from a carrier as long as I get a mini (standard) sim?
What did you do? Any recommendations?

Unlimitedville and UnlimitedIRL are two options I've used. Both are expensive.

If you want to use the Verizon network without paying an arm and a kidneys (lol), then check out Visible for $40/mo (lower speeds, higher latency), or PagePlus for $55/mo (normal speeds, average latency). Then there's Tmobile/SimpleMobile for $50/month (high speeds, low latency), or ATT $35/month (lower speeds, average latency), or Sprint for around $60/mo (normal speeds, normal latency). In order to use some of these unlimited data services you will need a compatible OpenWRT router with TTL settings from thewirelesshaven.com, otherwise it simply won't work it you'll get throttled after just a couple of gigs. I don't believe Cradle Point routers have the TTL settings, but you can ask about it.
