Google Fi is great and all, however right now you're limited to only being able to use 3 models of phone on the network, wouldn't recommended that for an overseas traveler. On Sun, Sep 17, 2017, 12:04 PM <mike.lyon () gmail com> wrote:

I'm going to visit USA for two weeks. I want to buy a local prepaid SIM card mostly for IP access. Is it possible in USA to buy a prepaid SIM as a visitor, without long term contract? 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. Will use it in New York City and Orlando City, not in rural areas. Good data roaming tariff in Cannada will be a big advantage. What can you advice?https://prepaid-phones.t-mobile.com/prepaid-international-tourist-plan Includes public ipv6 But here in the USA we UMTS is much poorer experience relative to LTE,youcan get a decent LTE unlocked phone for around $100https://www.bestbuy.com/site/motorola-moto-e4-4g-lte-with-16gb-memory-cell-phone-unlocked-licorice-black/5889300.p?skuId=5889300Prepaid plans generally wont include roaming to canadaThank you!
