Check out the AT&T ZTE Mobley. This device is made to plug into an OBD2 port on a vehicle. However it can be powered by adapters (wall plug, cigarette lighter or USB) available from Amazon or E bay. The Mobley is free with a 2 year contract. Without contract (recommended) it is $100. Monthly charge is $20 for unlimited data. I used mine for a 2 week eclipse trip, Las Cruces NM to Casper WY and return, had 4 bar service every time I used it. They are very popular so sold out often. Just keep trying and you will get one. Most ATT stores won't know what you are talking about - buy online.

A very good option!
I use 4G Community for home internet, about the same price.

Eventually AT&T is going to catch on and stop people using the mobley like this but for now it's a great option!
Definitely get the contractless option.

Has anyone tried to find one of these?
I can't seem to find one to buy.

You have to either wait until they are back in stock on the ATT site or you can get one off Ebay for a higher price.
A lot of people are using these as home internet since they are fast, unlimited, and cheap so the demand is very high.

Trying to buy one through AT&T is a bad joke. They don't have them in stock, can't tell you when or if they will get them and won't put you on a waiting list. Not to mention the snarky sales person's attitude-"we don't make them, only sell them". After the first sales person (that didn't know what a Mobley was) disconnected, the fifth person we were directed to finally gave us a definitive answer. If that's AT&T's way of doing business, I'll pass.
Rant over, Hal
