I use a different APN setting to get around the throttling, and I get 30Mbps-50Mbps past the limit. The APN I use, I've only found in one website. So, it's not commonly displayed, so I'm more leery about just posting it on here. But, what I will say is what it does is when selected, it seems to activate the APN types internet and modem that originally belongs to the HSPA+ APN on LTE. I'm just not sure if the way it's set up tricks the network since after selecting it, it reselects my standard LTE APN while unthrottling my speeds and allowing me 30Mbps-50Mbps speeds. I'm also curious if it's associated with the fact AT&T detected my tethering.
Well we'll never know, if they in fact can detect the tethering. When we switch our APN back & fourth.. But one thing I do know is that they can see what ever phone we're using and the imie #. They weren't able to c it b4! But when they upgraded there system all of that changed! Learned that quite some time back. So from that being able to have that access, then what else can they get??
But I'm thinking that it helps by US using a custom Rom. And taking off ALL that AT&T crap
that they put on the phone!
Sidenote: to everyone!
If ever they switch your account out of your grandfathered unlimited plan. And your unaware of it. You'll just have to go into a local AT&T store or call 611 CS. Ask for a supervisor immediately. In store ask for MGR!! FYI
And tell them that someone switch your account without your knowledge and your want it put back the way it was. And after they perform a check to see if your account was, actually on a unlimited plan! Which don't exist anymore
.
They'll switch it back for you!!!
It happen recently to a friend of mine's daughter switching phones, and data packages. (From android 2 crapple then back 2 android) And the rep screwed up on the account.
And deny anything that you know you have done that could have got it changed in the first place.
:what: LOL
