I have cable internet at the MT shack. Its expensive, slow and unreliable. If snow is in the forecast, its gonna go down. For $38 a month, its too slow to even stream Netflix.

So, I just ordered a Straight Talk mobile hotspot for $79 from Walmart and a 4GB pay as you go sim card for $40. It uses Verizon cell data, so I have good coverage. In the winter months, when I'm working on my suntan at the beach somewhere, I'm hoping the 4GB lasts a few months.

My main worry is that my Dropcams use quite a bit of data. I've heard 60GB per month each. But, I can turn them off/on at will using the Dropcam app on my phone, so that solves that.

Anyone else done this?
