This is correct. I pay for the unlimited plan with Verizon, but it only has 5GB of hotspot data. I use an iptables
rule to increment the TTL by one, giving me unlimited data on my laptop.
T-Mobile used to work the same way when I used it back in 2016.
This is the way.
Out of curiosity, what sort of issues were/are you having with it?
People love shitting on Purism on Reddit for whatever reason. Maybe they’re right? But I bought a Librem 14, use it as my daily driver, and I love it. I even had a problem with it after more than a year of use which Purism promptly fixed for no charge whatsoever. My experience with the company has been nothing but positive.
If you’re completely new, familiarizing yourself with any guide would be beneficial. A basic search resulted in this and this, which are better than nothing, I suppose. I’d appreciate someone skilled adding their two cents, however, especially concerning common pitfalls and anonymous payment for Usenet providers.
Oh wow, this is great! Thanks.
Surely there is some way to configure this on Windows. I’m so unfamiliar with Windows software anymore, but I’m sure that any firewall worth it’s salt would be able to increase the TTL on outbound packets.
