Thanks, I was asking specifically about T-mobile plans though. Sorry if I wasn't clear. The idea of high volume home internet over cell phone networks seems nuts to me. Even 50gb of cell phone data seems nuts to me since I'm an old fogey, but I know that people use that much all the time.

Oh, duh, context. I have a T mobile plan that's unlimited. After 50GB I get de-prioritized which usually doesn't affect me unless I'm at a sporting event or something.
