I'm not very technical - not sure how I would stop my dongle from automatically connecting through roaming at £7.50/MB rather than connecting and using a US based account?
That seems a little pricey, alright. Gotta be a better way.

Isn't there a SIM that you can swap for a US SIM? Should be just like a voice SIM. If you can get some kind of US Tmobile account set up you should be able to establish the non-contract dataplan. Have you checked ebay for a SIM?

If you haven't already, you'll have to have the modem unlocked, of course.

Let us know if we can help from this end.

Best,

John
