Hi, Kim.
While I have no experience with Cricket I can almost assure you that the
data caps they may impose on you are, as you guessed, just for cellular
use. When you're connected to Wifi, particularly your home Wifi, you can
stream to your heart's content at whatever speed the connection
currently offers. Of course, some public Wifi hotspots may choose to
limit or even block streaming but your home Wifi should pose no issues
when it comes to streaming. This assumes that your home Wifi does not
have data limits of its own but this is not likely the case.

Hi David and all,
I’m in the market for a new cell provider. Right now we are with T Mobil and I am not happy with them for a number of reasons I won’t get into here.
My current plan gives us unlimited talk, text and data for 180 per month for four lines. The plan I’m considering is with Cricket and gives me the same unlimited features for 100 for four lines. The only caviat is that they cap your data speed.
Now here’s my question. This cap is only an issue when you are streaming on cellular, correct? If I am connected to wifi my streaming will be dictated by my wifi network not my cell provider. Am I right?
Also, if anyone has cricket for their provider I would like to hear about your experience.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Kim
Best,
