It’s now easier to stay connected wherever you are, but getting to that point is still complicated. Wireless plans to Phones Home internet plans are usually two separate things, with some discounts or rebates if you get them from the same provider.
AT&T One Connect It brings wireless and home service together in one package, with unlimited mobile data for up to 10 voice lines and gigabit broadband in the home. However, it is limited to new AT&T customers only. Here’s how to break down the details.
OneConnect offers three pricing tiers, billed monthly:
-
Single – $90: One member, one voice line, up to three data devices, and one family has 1 Gbps Internet.
-
Binary – $120: Two members, two voice lines, up to six data devices, and one family with 1 Gbps Internet.
-
Family – $225: Unlimited members, up to 10 voice lines, up to 10 data devices and one family has 1 Gbps internet.
One notable detail is that the OneConnect subscription prices listed above include taxes and fees, a practice that is becoming increasingly rare among major carriers. On many plans, including AT&T Latest wireless plansthese costs are added on top.
For comparison, an AT&T package for two with unlimited wireless home Internet and gigabit speed would cost about $225, including two lines on the AT&T Premium 2.0 plan and AT&T Internet 1000 Fiber at $65. For a single person, a single Premium 2.0 wireless plan costs $90, plus $65 for home fiber. (It’s also important to note that speeds and availability vary depending on your location.)
As with any new communication plan, you’ll need to sift through the details so you know what you’re getting into.
For example, OneConnect is currently limited to new customers; Existing AT&T customers do not have a migration path to integrate their broadband and wireless services under this digital umbrella. According to an AT&T spokesperson, “Once we gather customer feedback and validate the experience with our initial rollout, we will make OneConnect available to as many customers as possible.”
It’s also fully BYOD — or “bring your own device”: “Limited to bring-in eSIM-compatible, unlocked smartphones, tablets, and wearables,” AT&T’s press release says. There are no phone deals associated with OneConnect, although a spokesperson did not rule out that possibility in the future.
Unlike AT&T’s standalone wireless plans, OneConnect follows a one-size-fits-all model. One benefit of AT&T’s cell phone service is that each person with an account can select their own plan. For example, a parent might choose AT&T Premium 2.0, while a teen might choose the cheaper but more limited AT&T Value 2.0.
Other major carriers offer home internet and mobile service packages, but they are not bundled in the same way. For example, Verizon and T-Mobile offer discounts if you sign up for both types of plans.
AT&T is betting that account holders will want simpler bundled service instead of two separate plans. With unlimited talk, text, data, and AT&T’s Active Armor service for filtering out unwanted calls and texts, this size seems to fit everyone.
