How does AT&T Turbo work? 


AT&T Turbo optimizes your AT&T smartphone plan’s premium and hotspot data by upgrading it to performance data.

AT&T Turbo doesn’t provide extra data. It also doesn’t apply to messaging or voice. If you exceed your existing data allotments, your normal network management applies.

During peak network congestion, AT&T Turbo benefits may not be noticeable.

On AT&T Unlimited Extra® EL after 75GB, AT&T may temporarily slow data speeds if the network is busy.  
On each eligible plan, after you exceed your hotspot allotment, your hotspot speeds are slowed to a maximum of 128Kbps.
