It’s in the fine print

I got it for our tailgate this year. We run two TV's and streaming YouTube TV. We get out on campus about 9:00 am and stream all day till its time to break down and head into the game.

I also opted for the 50GB plan.

September we had 3 home games, for those three Saturdays we ran through 91 gigs of streaming. For October we've only used 47 gigs.

Hope that helps!

I just read through the fine print, Ocean Mode is only available in the Roam Unlimited plan, not the Roam 50gb plan. So it would still be $165/month plus $2/GB for every GB of data you use beyond 12 miles offshore.

That’s how it reads officially to me also, but there’s quite a bit of chatter online that as long as you turn the Ocean Mode on before leaving 12 miles it will work. It maybe a loophole in that you can’t turn it on after 12 miles so they couldn’t guarantee it.

From what I found if you have the 50GB plan Ocean Mode isn't visible to toggle on/off on your interface on the app.

If you get it and it indeed works please update, I don't think we'd use it enough to justify the Unlimited plan.

Yeah that seems back and forth online.!I can’t figure out if its previous software versions that allowed it or if some users just don’t know because it’s not a clear option.
