I use my business at&t iPhone as a hotspot, no clue how much my allowance is, or how much the plan costs, as my employer pays for it, but you should look into it, might work for you too.
How's the speed, considering you're using it for a computer rather than mobile?

Even that way around there is no way you'll pay anywhere near Clear's dirt cheap rates.

You should be able to get Optimum internet-only with a promo rate of 39.99 (clear was 30, right?)

Then be ready to pay your pants off once the market is cleared of Clear! You're in for some surprise.

P.S. In your picture to the left of every post you don't look like an internet user at all, let alone 100gb...
 ;)
thats because you don't know rabbi frand as well as i do  ;)

Optimum offers first year $40. I have a modem & wireless router. They have lots of wifi hotspots depending on your location. Were you always connected with Clear or would you get disconnected till the next tower ?

With optimum hotspots i might lose the connection depending on the distance between 2. They're trying to have everyone's device double as a hotspot to cut down on that.
