sprint 5g cap on TP2?
I have seen some reports on sprint "capping" the internet after 5G of usage. Does this not apply on a tp2 or any WM phone for that matter, running wm wifi-router?
I'm using it on energyrom and have "6824550KB" of usage so far without any limitations. Downloads still going at 200-300 KBps with flashget. :headbang: Does the cap completly stop internet or just drop the speed? A few minutes ago it was stuck at 10-20kpbs. |

I don't think the data will stop if you go over. I remember someone says the 5 gig was over a 3 month average. So you could really go over a couple of months and still be under the 5 gig cap.
Hope that helps. |

Yes they start charging the crap out of you for going over!!! Disconnect ASAP!

Re: sprint 5g cap on TP2?

Re: sprint 5g cap on TP2?
Well maybe not. For tethering,its possible but not likely IMO. I go over 5 GB most of the time. Install the stealth cab and I think you will be fine.

I am using on average about 15-20 GB per month on two phones (plus my data card which is still under an old UNLIMITED plan). I never received any complain from Sprint or had any additional charges. I am also running data like crazy on Nextel (emails via WM Device) and I never hear them bitch around. Sprint lets you do pretty much a lot with their network and as long you stay within their system well you are in luck. I guess Sprint would not tolerate my hunger for data if I would be roaming all the time. I use one phone just as a radio and stream my favorite channels all the time. Sling Box is running as well quite happy on my phones and no issues from Sprint. Not sure if Big Red or the Death Star would be so good about it. But lets be honest, you get the Verizon coverage (voice and 1x) for a Sprint price and there is even a map for that ! |

Dont listen to this guy. just cause it works for him it may not for you. the cap thing has been a debate since like the year 2000 and everyone has the point of view or opinion on it. if you get caught just dont come crying here for sympathy cause you know the consequences |
Re: sprint 5g cap on TP2?
i use a lot, but i try not to get too crazy... approaching 5gb is bound to get noticed. it's funny when i check my account online and compare my data numbers to the rest of my family.
