From what I have read, it's a hard cap - folks are not getting data at all even at 2g speed
I have a different RP plan, so I can't agree or disagree, but from what I understand about 2g speeds I can't help but wonder if those people suggesting a hard cap are really receiving data at 2g but not recognizing it due to the latency vs. what they are accustomed to at more modern speeds. Perhaps the network carrier chosen comes into play as well. Other Red Pocket posts citing various shortcomings seem to be more pronounced with users on the Verizon network (I am on AT&T).

In most cases 2G is unusable and it's just a marketing BS so they can get away with saying "unlimited", they further down sometimes do put that even 2G the speed is like 56-128 KB/s so basically a dial up modem of 1997 so it would take about 5-15min to load single webpage. They removed the 2G and at this point 3G as cell frequencies but still refer to speeds those provided again just so they put those words that catch peoples eyes in big letters while limiting at same time in very tiny ones in the bottom.

Fcc should set minimum standards for the unlimited data beyond the high speed cap, cause nothingvl, or 64kbit is just farking pathetic! Carriers CAN do better.

I'd push back. The product description clearly says that data is unlimited, but only the first 5GBs will be high speed: https://i.imgur.com/msiGUqP.jpg

Agreed. In my experience, it's generally 128Kbps - but Tello does do 64Kbps.
New to RP. I have a few questions. If you have experience with RP, could you please clarify the following? Thank you.
Is this 5G speed or best available? The post says 4G but eBay description sounds like 5g.
After 360 days, do I have to buy another 360-day plan to extend the service or does it get auto renewed to the same plan for the same price? Just worried the phone number and all would be gone if I don't renew in time.
Can I stack up two 360-day plans (order 1 with SIM and 1 for renewal) so I don't have to keep renewing?
Do I have to activate the SIM within a certain number of days?

H2O, on the other hand, is killing it @ 256Kbps.
