Free 2.5 GB tethering
- Thread starter premiatul
- Start date
I think it was 500mb originally and has now been increased to 2.5gb.
Does anyone know if this also applies to the classic "Android Preferred Unlimited" plan? I have had that one for ages and have been thinking of possibly switching over but if there are benefits to one plan or the other I'd like to know about it.
Thanks.
I was told by multiple reps that this 2.5 is a promotion. It won't stay at 2.5 forever. I think you need to change plans. I moved from prepaid onto my guys account in order to take advantage of this.

Set up the wireless tether app like xda says then use a vpn app. Best one to use is vipervpn but hotspot vpn works well for a free one

If u have the hotspot on your account the ps3 will be able to pick up the tether and use the data.. Just not when u don't have the hotspot on ur account and ur doing a hacked tether to use ur unlimited data it won't work.. I'm connected to the ps3 network now.. 2.5 should be enough for multi-player... I hope

Use a vpn along with hacked tether app and u will use no hotspot data.

2.5 gigs is enough for gta v multi-player I find myself only use several kb to like 8 mb max over 4-5 hrs of online use .. Seems the multi-player is barley using any kind of data but only to show the location in the game and that's it... Loving it

I would actually love to see screenshots of data used b4 u played and after u played for 4 to 5 hrs. I played bout an hour today and used just over 3GB.
I think it might start charging for it actually. I need to ask to verify this though as I'm not 100% sure.

No, they do not charge you more, simply you get redirected to the upsale page.

Thanks for the info. I have unlimited data but always use custom ROM tether app. Haven't had any problems so far. Btw don't you have to provide Ur social for an account with tmo anyway? So I'm sure they already have it.

Called T-Mo up and told them I heard about a free 2.5 GB tethering option for unlimited data accounts.
She said my current unlimited plan was not eligible for the free 2.5 GB tethering option, BUT, that she could move me to the correct plan and it wouldn't change anything on my account other than giving me the 2.5 GB tethering, and it would not cost me anymore.
Nice! I now have 2.5 GB tethering for both of my phones (each has its own 2.5 GB) for nothing addition. I had 0 GB of tethering before the call.
Thanks for the heads up!

it doesn't matter how fast your connection in theory, pingtest.net try that and see the difference!

6Yes, you read it right!
I stopped by a T-mo store today to look for a case for my wife's phone
and I know very well the sales person.
He told me that T-mo replaced the free 500 MB tether (on Unlimited data plan),
with free 2.5 GB without any additional fees !!!!
He changed that option on the spot for me.
You can do that yourself on T-mo website, or just walk in the store like I did.
