Just a heads up. One of our viewers, Shannon, has made us aware that the plan IS NO LONGER UNLIMITED data. We used it non-stop during our trip to Florida and never experienced throttling but she, and others, are now reporting throttling. That is a shame and I guess nothing lasts forever. I just wanted to make you aware of what was being reported to us. Thanks Shannon for bringing it to our attention. Guess it's time for Starlink for us. BTW, if you're experiencing throttling please leave us a comment and let us and others know. Thanks,

Thanks for the great video as always. You have been our inspiration from day one in early 2021. My wife and I have traveled across the US in our Coachmen Galleria. Our setup includes using our Verizon unlimited data phone plan to stream (Netflix, KZitem etc). We attach our phone directly to our TV using a HDMI cable and mirroring the phone. That way we have unlimited data without using up our hotspot data. That might work for you leaving all your hotspot data for uploading videos, Maggie's temperature control, etc).

I just got the TMobile hotspot from the Caylyx Institute a couple months ago. So far I’m loving it. A friend suggested it and they have also been having great success with it.

The plan through Calyx is absolutely throttled and I'm highly disappointed!! Signed up, got the hotspot box, and now after 50gb of usage got a message on the screen that says Sprint/T-Mobile has now reduced our speed. Lot of money wasted and too good to be true!!

Shannon we're sorry to hear that. It has never happened to us... ever. In fact I never check the screen of the hotspot. Were you in a congested area?

@@VANTREKKINGlifestyle No not in a congested area. Spoke with a rep and wrote a letter to Calyx. Both confirmed the 50gb limit and after that it's called "Network Management" their new word for throttling and speeds reduce significantly after that. Very upset and people need to know before spending hundreds on this. Especially those working from the road! Thanks for responding!

Good info. Do you have an idea of the amount of hotspot data you use on a trip? We're in the process of switch our cell service from AT&T to T-Mobile's magenta max which comes with 40gb hot spot per line. Planning to pair that with Visible By Verizon which comes with unlimited hotspot data (at least that's what they claim)
