I've apparently hit some kind of magic bw limit. My 4G LTE is now magically
fixed at max 1.5mbps

Last month's usage was about 200gb.

cmon verizon seriously :(

also pulled down about 150gb over that week and each day I was waiting for
verizon to pull the plug but it never happened. Speeds were consistently
around 20/10.


Nice!


 I looked around but couldnt find any reasonably cheap 4G interface cards
for
any of the major router vendors otherwise I might have actually considered
it as my home needs are pretty basic.


Cradlepoint. Yeah it's another box, but it's really nice. Just set it to
bridge mode, run a 3" ethernet cable to the cisco WAN port and you are all
set.
