Please dont get CLear 4g service, I have never seem such a crap internet provider in my life.
I canceled my service 3 months ago and the last month they charged by debit card 4 times, I had to get a new debit card. In the end they gave me back my money, 2 weeks later. My (stupid) sister had that 4g wifi box thing and it overheats even when anyone lightly uses it. I of course download movies on utorrent so that thing was always overheating. She went through 3 of those 4g boxes and all the same, the battery even bulged every time from too much heat. It was a fire hazard and even explode. They had the nerve to try to charge her shipping for the replacement battery every single time. I stepped in and told her to say, it's against some consumer law to sell defective things. They bought it and didn't charge any thing for shipping.
If you read around the Better Business Bureau (BBB) is there many complaints against Clear and many lawsuits for them throttling speeds.
With the USB 4g laptop device, you can not change the IP address, but with the 4g wifi box thing, you can. But the IP address' are very narrow, maybe less than 100-150. The devices I was using changed, I dont know about other people but it changed for me using it in Vegas.
Look into getting a cheap smart phone and tether using that and get a cheap 3g service.
