When traveling in the Extended 3G Coverage Area, you can expect download speeds of 400–700 Kbps and upload speeds of 60–80 Kbps.

⁵ Prepaid Mobile Broadband Plans are not available on 4G USB modems and do not include Verizon Wi-Fi Access, Text Messaging or roaming. Prepaid Mobile Broadband Tablet Plans automatically renew each month on the same calendar day as the original purchase (if the purchase was made on days 29–31, the renewal date is the 1st of the following month), and the customer’s credit card is billed accordingly. If the entire data allowance is used before the renewal date, 3G service will not be available until the plan automatically renews, unless a new bundle is purchased. If a new bundle is purchased, the automatic renewal date is adjusted according to the new purchase date.
Windows Automatic Updates or any other automatic updates will apply against your data allowance. Go to the Control Panel on your notebook/netbook and/or the settings for other software to control updates manually.
Pay-per-use roaming in CDMA countries is available with Mobile Broadband Plans. See International Text Messaging for rates.
