“Can this be used on road trips 3-8 hrs out of state for the kids to connect to the internet and the wife to use her laptop for Zoom meetings?”

• You have to do the math yourself, since you were not clear how much of those 3-8 hours you would be doing what, but here are the raw numbers: Netflix: 1GB/hr. for Standard Definition (SD), 3GB/hr. for High Definition (HD); Online gaming of most modern titles: 40 to 300MB/hr. Zoom group meeting call: 810 MB-2.4 GB/hr. So if you bought the pay-as-you-go plan (1GB/$6), your wife could have one, one-hr. meeting ($6 to $12), your kids could watch one, two-hr. SD movie ($12) and play one to three housr of videogames, for approximately ($6--you would have to pay for the full gigabyte), for a total of around $24. There are many variables, however, including which plan you use, cell carriers "fair use" policies," connectivity in your area. etc. This is what I meant by saying you have to do the math yourself.
