AT&T Unlimited Extra EL Wireless Plan FAQs

Will my data really be unlimited?

Yes — you get “unlimited” talk, text, and data. But after using 75 GB in a month, you might see slower speeds during times when the network is busy.

What streaming quality will I be able to watch?

Standard definition (SD), not HD or 4K. So video will look okay, but not super crisp on big screens.

What happens to my hotspot after 30GB?

Yes. Talk, text, and data in Mexico & Canada are included. But roaming speeds might drop in those places.

What happens to my hotspot after 30GB?

Yes. Talk, text, and data in Mexico & Canada are included. But roaming speeds might drop in those places.

What People Like

Good amount of high-speed data before any slowdowns (75GB) — enough for many users.
Decent hotspot allowance (30GB) — solid for users who share internet with laptop/tablet occasionally.
Includes roaming perks (Canada & Mexico) without extra cost.
Security features included.

What People Complain About

Video quality limited to standard definition — not good for people wanting HD or 4K video.
After 75GB usage, data may be deprioritized (slower during busy times) — could affect performance.
Price is still high compared to more basic unlimited plans — if you don’t use hotspot much or don’t stream, maybe overkill.
