I'm going to visit USA for two weeks. I want to buy a local prepaid SIM
card mostly for IP access.

I use these guys when I fly through the US. Can't say who the carrier(s) they might use. Can't say if there was a non-natted address. But I think IPv6 was supplied.

https://roammobility.com/ You can mail order the SIM and top it up on demand.



Is it possible in USA to buy a prepaid SIM as a visitor, without long
term contract?

Can activate from a day to a month.


I need a public (can be dynamic) IP address, NOT over NAT, and (or)
IPv6, if possible.

My phone is GSM UMTS 3G.

Expected traffic volume is about 10G.

the 1 month plan about covers that.


Will use it in New York City and Orlando City, not in rural areas.

I had no problems at the Newark airport as I passed through.


Good data roaming tariff in Cannada will be a big advantage.

The same guys do something in Canada. I used them for 14 days earlier this year and roamed from the prairies of Alberta through into the Rockies without nary a hiccup. Whether there be a static ip address assigned... don't know. Can't recall if they used Bell or Telus or Rogers.

https://roammobility.ca/  This one is different, this is a one-time use SIM.


What can you advice?

Thank you!
