T-mobile has a hidden plan for 30GB data a month data plan (you get your own sim and need your own device).
I got a cellular modem for $40:

Call in or use their online chat to inquire about the "Basic Mobile Internet 30GB plan (SOC: MI30TE or MI30TI)". It is $15/mo but you get a $5/mo discount by using autopay.
If you can't repro then you suck. This also provides you with a phone number for the data account and you get access to t-mobile tuesdays despite it only being a data plan

$15. You have to get autopay.
$15 per two lines
I didn't need a second hot spot line so just opted in for the 1 line for 10/mo + $25 gc.
For the gift card, add promo code 240150 and your costco ID to claim.

Is this extension to your phone line or watch will get it's own number? I am not using T-mobile phone line
They have 5G data lines. My speed was 50mps
How is the speed on the T-Mobile plan?
They have both options at that price point - I did mine as a stand-alone, but they said it would be the same price to share a number with a phone plan you have with T Mobile.
No. You can just get the data or watch sim.

I almost posted the Costco deals as a separate deal - buying this through Costco is super slick (front page worthy... between the waived fees, cheap monthly plan, and $25 cash back...).
You could always cancel the plan you bought and open a new line through Costco, but there is the 30 minute wait to talk to an agent...
