Telecom/Wireless Network

Writer: Brady YuBrady Yu

It is recommended to buy a prepaid card in Taiwan before departure. It is for the first week in the United States

After arriving locally, go to apply for a sim card



 

Mobile Telecom


I bought a family plan at AT&T with my classmates

The sponsor needs to have SSN


I have a 50G quota for one month, and the price is $39.51

The network is unlimited, and the speed will slow down after exceeding 50G

At present, it is quite smooth and fast to use near the school.

I ran a Speedtest at my rental and it was 70mbps download and 16mbps upload



 

Home WiFi

My rental office needs to apply for home WiFi.

I am applying for Spectrum's Internet service, the bandwidth is 30mbps, $17.99 per month.

Later I upgraded to 100mbps, $29.99 per month.

Spectrum also provides many other paid services (including TV and VOICE)


After applying with Spectrum, it will send a host to your home and install it yourself (very easy)

But you need to buy another router by yourself to use WiFi
