My question is about 3G getting fazed out. What i have seen from other posts is all over the board. 

What im wanting to know is are my cameras that i have got in the last year (that are 3G) going to keep working for several years or not? from what ive gathered at my local US Cellular they are not ending there 3G service when verizon does. 

Does anyone know when they are or if they will? i really just dont want to have a bunch of money tied up in these expensive camera and then they end up not working come 2020 and not even be a year and a half old. 

 

Thanks

  Are you using premium and trying to set it up on the portal?

  I will be using premium but wanting to send a test picture via text. I’m using my #@mms.uscc.net or email@mms.uscc.net and it tells me it isn’t accepted

  Pics to text are no longer supported. You can send to email.

  Eric, why do you want the test picture sent to text/email and not the app?

  I have always made sure it sent there first rather than the app. It does work now and I am running the app. Anyone know if you can have videos sent to the app yet?

  You have always been able to send videos to the app if you are using a 4G camera or the 3G ATTxb. However, the other 3G cameras cannot transmit video.

  If you have a camera that is capable of transmitting video, it's best to use photo + video so you can request just the videos you want. Videos use a decent amount of data compared to photos.
