AT&T on Thursday changed the way it handles the cellular data use of its unlimited wireless data users. Customers with unlimited data plans for 3G and non-LTE 4G smartphones will see their wireless speeds slow once they user more than 3GB of data per month. Those using an unlimited plan on a 4G LTE smartphone have a 5GB threshold before they see their speeds slow. Previously, AT&T had told customers only that the top 5 percent of unlimited data users would be throttled.
