Wireless Broadband Modem Secret

Posted by admin in Wireless Internet Card

Wireless Broadband Modem Secret

Do you want to know a money saving secret, if you’re thinking of buying a wireless broadband modem?

Well here it is! Don’t buy the cell carriers wireless broadband modem. Why do I say that?

The one big reason I say this is because all of the USB modems sold by the cell phone providers are locked. A locked USB modem can only be used with the carrier that sold it to you, if you decide in the future to move to another provider your wireless broadband modem will be completely useless with the new provider. Also I’m sure this is used as a way to keep you loyal to a single provider.

So what can you do about it?

Simple! You buy an unlocked version of that same USB modem or a different modem that will operate on any carrier. Presently there are any number of devices you can buy that will operate on Verizon, T-Mobile, Sprint or AT&T. If you change your mind about the carrier you have chosen, just cancel the contract and move on to the next provider taking your USB modem with you. All you will need is a new chip from your new provider, with your new number on it.

Here’s your next wireless broadband modem bonus secret.

Do not let a cell provider talk you into a two year contract with them for providing you with a new USB modem. These modems cost between $39.00 and $239 depending on how new the card is and what it is providing you. This is not like buying a cell phone that can cost upwards of $400 and which will take a big chunk of change out of your pocket. The lower cost of these modems means that you will be selling two years’ worth of your time way too cheaply. Just sign up for the month to month data contract and purchase your new modem online. If by some chance the modem doesn’t operate correctly with your carrier, simply return it, order a new one and move on.

Now let’s talk about the data contract itself.

Some providers still offer all you can eat data contracts, meaning there are no limits on how much you can download. More common though is the contract that provides for a 5 GB monthly limit on downloads. This 5 GB limit should not pose a problem for the average user, but if you watch a lot of videos online that 5 GB could diminish rapidly. So pay close attention to whether overages are charged if you exceed the 5 GB, some providers charge by megabyte, some by gigabyte and some not at all simply choosing to reduce your connection speed to 2g levels. The latter example is how T-Mobile operates.

Do you already have a cell phone?

A silly question I know, but some carriers offer a discount to folks that are already customers of the company. Using T-Mobile as an example again, they offer approximately a $10.00 discount per month if your cell phone is already carried through them. This would be a 25% discount on the cost of a normal monthly bill.

I hope this has cleared up some of the confusion that may surround the purchase of a wireless broadband modem and data plan. To check out some of the unlocked versions of wireless Internet modems simply scroll down and click on a products image. A new window will open where you can obtain more information, read customer reviews or purchase your new USB modem.
