No - it changed on its own. Same sim card same settings.

Looks like after the trial they want 20 bucks a month for the roving Wifi. I guess it gives better and faster service than using your cell phone...Anyone know what the real deal is?
Thanks....

My Disco came with an AT&T sim, but after having some issues I tried my Bell iPhone sim (with adaptor) and it worked fine. I imagine any Company Sim will work.

I'm also interested in this. I've been wondering if there's an "upgrade" for the 2017 to go to 4G. But, if 3G works better than 3G on my iPhone, I won't care.

Interestingly enough, I leave the vehicles "wifi" on and when I drive around town I pick up Xfinity hot spots everywhere and other wonderful public WiFi hot spots. I am not sure if you can route an external wifi hot spot to the vehicles internal wifi hot spot, but for those in urban areas this might be worth trying.
