The Best Unlimited Wireless Internet

Tue, Jan 31, 2023 8:18 AM Internet Bundles Broadband Deals

Wireless internet uses a cellular signal to connect to the internet. It comes in a variety of ranges, with varying speeds, costs, and data capacities.

A wireless internet plan might not necessarily provide unlimited data. Internet providers that operate on wired networks, such as fiber and cable, are not suited to supply internet at the same speed as cellular and wireless carriers. However, there are still some bargains to be had, and there are numerous options for making wireless internet work for you.

Verizon and T-Mobile, as well as a few other smaller carriers, have marketed 5G home internet as a relatively new internet service. It's fast, with speeds up to 1,000 Mbps, and it's affordable, with unlimited data and extras like installation and equipment included in the monthly rate.

5G internet

The service is only available in a few cities around the country. However, as 5G becomes more widely used, it will most certainly spread. So keep your eyes peeled since this could be a great alternative to costly cable and fiber services.

T-Mobile Home Internet is now the most commonly available 5G-based home internet service. When 5G isn't available, it uses 4G signals, which means speeds will be a little slower but still adequate for a family of three to five. It costs $60 per month and provides speeds ranging from 25 to 100 Mbps.

Verizon 5G Home Internet isn't as widely available, and it's now in a test phase as Verizon expands its nationwide 5G network. However, because it predominantly uses 5G networks, it provides far higher speeds than T-Mobile (rather than both 4G and 5G like T-Mobile).

4G internet

While 5G home internet provides high speeds in cities and urban areas, 4G LTE home internet is primarily targeted at rural clients. For $40 to $100 a month, you can get decent speeds (typically between 25–100 Mbps) and enough data as long as you have a reliable mobile connection in your location. As a result, it's a great alternative to satellite internet (another popular rural internet service), which is slow but expensive.

When it comes to 4G LTE home internet, T-Mobile and Verizon are the two main companies. They both offer plans with low pricing, fast speeds, unlimited data, and no installation or equipment fees.

We recommend UbiFi if you can't receive T-Mobile or Verizon in your location. It's an MVNO that offers unlimited bandwidth and an LTE modem/router that can connect up to 200 devices in many remote areas of the country. The sole disadvantage is that it is more expensive than Verizon or T-plans, Mobile's but it is still less expensive than satellite internet.

Hotspots and hotspot data

The Jetpack MiFi 8800L Hotspot is by far the most powerful and versatile 4G hotspot available, however, a 5G hotspot like the Inseego 5G MiFi M2000 or Inseego MiFi M2100 5G UW could be worth the extra money. They can connect a lot more devices and support Wi-Fi 6 to keep your connection strong while servicing several users.

Most cellular companies do not provide standalone data plans that provide unlimited data for the entire month. T-Mobile has by far the finest data plan: for $10 a month, you can get 2 GB of internet and then add more as needed. T-Mobile also offers a standalone data plan for $50 per month that includes 100 GB, while AT&T recently announced a standalone data plan for $55 per month that includes 100 GB. Those are unquestionably your finest possibilities.

Mobile Internet

Only T-Magenta Mobile's MAX plan offers genuinely unlimited data. Once you reach a data maximum, you can use as much data as you like on your phone without having your speeds throttled. The amount of high-speed hotspot data you may use is still limited, but 40 GB per month is a lot.

Unlimited wireless internet specs and features

Look for a plan or package that provides constant connectivity while shopping for unlimited wireless internet. You want decent speeds, enough monthly bandwidth, and a large enough cellular network so your signal won't drop out all the time.

We go over the common features (and hazards) of wireless internet

With the exception of one T-Mobile plan, most “unlimited” cellular data plans from Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile come with a significant catch. You only get a certain amount of priority data, which means you only get a high-speed connection on 4G LTE or 5G. Once you've used it up, your speeds will be significantly lowered, usually to 3G levels.

The cost of wireless internet varies greatly based on where you are and what you intend to do with it. If you have access to 4G LTE and 5G home internet services in your location, however, you can discover reasonably priced wireless internet options. Some cell phone plans, particularly prepaid plans, are also reasonably priced.

Because wireless internet relies on cellular connections, you'll need an unlimited wireless internet plan with dependable cell coverage. Otherwise, it will constantly cut off and will never be functional when you require it.
