A New Experiment!

Well, two things coincided: first, our Cricket Wireless opened up the 5G for our iPhones. We knew they were capable of it, but the company only allowed it at first on iPhones that they sold, not iPhones you brought to the plan. So, great! And no limits on our plan.

But then our Internet Provider announced it would not work with Apple’s Private Relay enabled. In other words, they really demanded to be able to snoop. A little investigation and a tip from David and within an hour and a half, the house has been switched entirely to the 5G: Apple TV, Homepods, and printer. All up and running. It was actually pretty simple. So we’ll run with this for a month and see if it is up to par with what we had, and if so, goodbye ISP and we’ll just be a 100% Cricket family. Sweet.
