AT&T offers Wireless Internet plans that include large data buckets and a hard-wired phone line. Voice is part of these plans - and cannot be separated from the plans.

The data plans offered are only available for AT&T Wireless Internet devices as designated by AT&T and cannot be used on other types of devices. They are available for both consumers and businesses. 

Currently Available Plans

• 50GB for $40/month (+$20/voice) =$60+ taxes
• 100GB for $80/month (+$20/voice) =$100+ taxes **TOP PICK**

• Network Management:
  • (Retired) Rural plans are always subject to Network Management. Being designed for 'rural users' it is expected the towers used won't be overloaded. So, you're stuck being network managed.
  • Current Wireless Internet (50GB/100GB) may or may not be subject to Network Management. There is no language re: this practice on the Wireless Internet FAQ/TOS pages, and the reps we have talked to believe that the plans may not be subject to Network Management since there is no wording to designate such.
