Cheap data in US - Networking

Hi guys,
In the summer I'll be in a rural area without cable/dsl internet connection, but I still want to be connected to the internet. The only gsm network with ok coverage is at&t over there.
I'm looking for cheap data. At least 2 gigs. I'm only using it for a month, so a 1-year contract or so is not a good idea.
The cheapest I could find was at h2o wireless: the 60$ month plan for 2GB.
Does anybody else know any good alternatives? In Europe almost every supermarket has it's own provider with low rates..
Thanks so much

Straight talk. Their website offers sim cards for at&t and T-Mobile, and they're 15$. You can use any unlocked GSM phone, and at&t phones need not be unlocked. Once you've purchased a sim card you can port a number or get a new one. The monthly service is 45$, and is available at Walmart as a prepaid card.

OMG that's amazing! I wonder if anyone's figured it out yet! Rofl

is the refurb with a contract? cause if it's without contract, that would be reasonable.
if that's the case, it will be better to just buy the phone from me since i'm selling one right now.
Don't buy these phones. These are refurbished phones, that were Jacked-up from XDA members and returned to Tmobile ~~~LOL~~~

Still requires a plan.

That doesn't mean anything by itself, all phones require a plan. But it does require a 2 year contract for the refurb.

Sprint's signal is better at my house than Verizon. Verizon only has the edge when I'm on the road...which isn't often (considering my job is 2 miles away). Not sure about LTE speeds, but Sprint's 3G is pretty much maxed where I live.
Sad though, who on earth would pay $80 a month for 10 GB?
damn! i use ~5+ GB a month... I'd have to pay an arm and a leg

make that 2 arms and a leg for me i use around 20gigs a month with all my tethering lol.
oh and its an aditional 20$ a month if you use the hotspot starting july 7th
SPRINT FOR THE WIN!

Good to be back home!!!!

Hi, I just left AT&T(NOTE) and came back home to Sprint today!!!. I loved it the Note but could not stand the expensive pricing of AT&T and their lack of unlimited Data plans. I felt like a thieft at the Bank watching my back not to go over my data and I could not resist that. so before my trial period expired I came back to sprint. how about some of you guys?. anyone with the same experience???.
Nice mistake I did the opposite... sprint is horrible in Atlanta and the customer service is worse...

Will be switching to att 3gb plan in Oct. Sprint's 3g is a joke and so will their LTE from what I'm reading. They are ripping people off with unlimited data claim cause 99% of their customers will never be able to use more than a GB of data because of bad signal

Yeah, but you said never.
A big chunk of the country will have LTE by the end of the year.

They're rolling out LTE off of more towers than wimax ever was. I'm pretty excited, OnLive on the go is going to be awesome

LG G2 sprint vs verizon

Am wondering how well both roam on other cdma carriers outside their own? Like you could with a photon 4G sprint could but not a samsung touch 4G.
Also how does the sprint verion hold out in comparison to verizon?
Can either be used on att tmobile ect?
Verizon version I believe comes unlocked an might work on LTE depending on your area.

I've ran into an extended network on the MD PA line and tested server in VA. Did not look at the time to check who's tower it was. Result.

Edit: That is a Verizon tower. No idea why banner listed it as extended.
I know sprint and verizon are both cdma but what is their a differnce between their phones? or are they same just have thier own software differences?
Verizon can be used on any gsm carrier. And that's all of verizon lte devices. Sprints can't I don't believe. All of verizon phones are unlocked. I get h+ speeds when I use mobile or att SIM cards. No lte. I hear though once aws is activated by verizon you can use T-Mobile lte

Verizon is unlocked and will work on Tmobile and ATTs HSPA+ networks. No GSM LTE but great if you're roaming and need a temp solution.

Straight talk MMS issue

I know this question has been asked and answered several times but I swear I have tried everything and still no luck. I talked to ST support but they are no help.
I have a nexus 4 and I just moved to straight talk and ordered an activation kit directory though them. I am up and running but cannot receive MMS.
Thanks for your suggestions and help!

Well I bought the activation kit directly though Straight Talk. Sim says Trac on it.
Att sims are blue.
Tmoble sims are pink.
You're gonna need to tweak your APN settings.
Here's my tmoble APN.
