ATT Fixed wireless data usage not matching what is recorded on the residential gateway

Hello, I had the ATT fixed wireless product installed in June. Prior to that I had ATT DSL. With my DSL, we used about 50GBs of data per month. After we installed the Fixed wireless it jumped to 170GB in 9 days. This obviously caused many questions, because our internet usage habits did not change.

I am thinking about getting AT&T fixed wireless for my home. I work from home several times a week and need to know if I can connect using a VPN. I understand that with satellite VPN speeds are about the same as dial up. Is that also true for fixed wireless?

Microcell with Fixed Wireless Internet Service?

Hi everyone, I have a big problem I'm hopeful someone will be able to help me with. For years with AT&T, we have never had cell phone service in our house.

AT&T Fixed Wireless Eligibility

I currently live at a house that can only get AT&T DSL (the most recent one, ADSL/VDSL, I believe). No other options exist; no other cable or DSL provider is available to us. Furthermore, AT&T has eliminated our 6Mbps plan, and if we change it, the only other option is a (very insufficient) 1.5Mbps
