    For what it's worth, unless things have changed recently you can't get an Airave in nTelos-land. I tried when I was living in Blacksburg and it was no go. In fact even if you got one somehow, it'd refuse to work due to your location (the GPS locks it out; you have to be within 35km as the crow flies of a Sprint native tower due to the FCC's rules on femtocells). Unless they've worked something out with nTelos in the meantime, of course. You could get a third party signal booster though, like one from the Wilson line.

    Don't forget the 50% roaming usage limit for voice and data effectively forecloses this option, and I don't see that going away except in cases where Sprint deepens these roaming relationships to the wholesale level that nTelos is at. Which might not be a bad idea for some of these outfits. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

    True, but that's an all or nothing setting. I don't care if I get a few <1MB updates each day, some of which are pulled while I'm away from work or home WiFi, even on my capped T-Mobile plan. There used to be a 50MB hard cap on update size over mobile networks, but that went away years ago. Anyway this has gotten way off-topic for the thread. As long as there's a reasonable roaming cap with warnings or no risk of overages without user opt-in, as has been the case with EVDO (given its slower performance), I'm OK with it. But Google (and Apple and MS) really needs to add finer-gained control of roaming data, particularly as separately-capped roaming becomes more common in the industry, to better empower users. Heck the stock Nexus 5 even lacks the separate domestic/international data roaming setting that is buried in the framework and available on other Sprint devices, which is important for border-area dwellers. At least in Georgia I look forward to our new SouthernLINC roaming partner's rollout, which will be desperately needed once AT&T and Verizon cut off most of the old Alltel areas, and CSpire LTE will help fill in an important 1X-roaming-only gap for Sprint on I-22 between Tupelo and Birmingham.

    The point is *I didn't deliberately do it*. I only found out it was downloading from the notification bar when auto updates kicked in. If I'd been roaming I'd have been screwed. Particularly on LTE when it would have only taken a few seconds.

    I've seen 1 GB+ application updates for games on occasion (EA FIFA 14 had a big one last month). Not the sort of thing you want to happen on a capped plan or while roaming, even if you normally would accept most updates as a matter of course. Really all you'd need is a "no background data while roaming" setting to avoid nasty surprises, although separate data restrictions for native and roaming data would be better.
