New Ipad and 2010 AT&T unlimited data plan for Ipad 1
I still have the $30/month unlimited data plan for my ipad (original ipad). Software is no longer supported for Ipad 1 and safari is always crashing. SO, my question is: if I transfer the original data plan to my new ipad, will it work well or is the original data plan only for 3g/slower network.
Real question: I'd like to save money by cancelling my household internet service provider and ONLY obtain internet service from my unlimited AT&T plan via a new ipad. Can this old AT&T plan via a new ipad provide internet service comparable to an internet service provider such as time warner cable?
I am not a gamer, but I do watch streaming videos a lot via roku channels.
Thank you.

Thank you. Your response led me to learn I have a data usage tracker on the TWC - Spectrum website. Checking it, I see I've already used 98 GB in April alone through the TWC Arris router. I guess that means I'll reach 22 gb pretty quickly each month and service via a cellular plan will probably be unsatisfactory for me once it starts reprioritizing. (Does that sound like I understood your response?) 🙂

Yes, you understood very well, bonus points for reasearch on your own. 😉
You could experiment and turn wifi off on the tablet for a month and see if or when it slows down.
