The rates vary by where you live. I am not an ATT user so my rates quoted are $15/mo for 3G, $20/mo for unlimited. I have no daily use rate.As you know, the 2019+ Ranger offers the optional 'FordPass Connect 4G Modem' on XLT and Lariat Trims.

Just to be clear since this ins in the ATT Wireless Service thread, the Ford Pass activation and subsequent app use is free for at least a year if not longer. To receive the 42,000 points all you have to do is activate Ford Pass through the App. The ATT modem/ wireless service that you have to pay for is completely separate and is not need to receive the 42,000 pointsI am considering FordPass Rewards just for the 42000 points.
It requires modem activation.
After the three months, can you cancel the modem service and retain the points toward service?
Thanks for the clarification - I was wondering if I could get ANOTHER 42,000 points by activating my 3 month trial for the cell service. I have no need for it however. I was just considering doing it if I could get another round of points. I will skip it.Just to be clear since this ins in the ATT Wireless Service thread, the Ford Pass activation and subsequent app use is free for at least a year if not longer.

I highly doubt it. I had ATT service activated in my vehicle for almost two months before cancelling, and never received any additional points because of it.Thanks for the clarification - I was wondering if I could get ANOTHER 42,000 points by activating my 3 month trial for the cell service.

My work vehicle has AT&T and it works and the free AT&T in the Ranger so far has worked in Eastern MT and Western ND where I've used it.Is anyone using Verizon?
No, the truck's modem is currently locked into AT&T, and nobody has figured out (yet?) how to put a different sim, or carrier unlock the MEID.Is anyone using Verizon?
Works well for me. I pay $10 a month for the additional line. I use the trucks wifi as well. I never go above 4.5 MB of usage though. Don't need the unlimited plan We don't use the 12 GBs I have now. It rolls over to 20Gs on tap. My ATT line from the truck is just an additional line shared with my regular account,Is anyone using AT$T WiFi past the free trial period? If so, how's it working for you overall? I can justify the $20/month unlimited plan IF it is truly usable.......
Yeah--which really sucks. The places where I'd most like to use the car hotspot (because of better antenna placement to pull in weak signal) also tend to have really, really bad AT&T service (in my experience).No, the truck's modem is currently locked into AT&T, and nobody has figured out (yet?) how to put a different sim, or carrier unlock the MEID.
I believe the FordPass access will work for 2 years. 2020 models will only get 1 year but the 2019 models get 2 years free.Since AT&T is the only provider I intend to use Ford Pass app as my remote start, that will expire in June. I’ll decide then if I want to renew or power up the hotspot and compare prices then.
I don’t have much interest in making the truck a WiFi source, my interest is in remote starting in the winter.
Pretty sure it will be cheaper to install a remote start rather than a monthly fee.
