About to move (permanently, legally) to the USA, i am looking for a mobile plan and currently interested in H2O's $40 montly plan, providing unlimited national calls, unlimited national and international texting, unlimited calls for up to 10 international numbers in 50+ countries (including Israel landline and mobiles) and 1 gbyte of high speed data (unlimited 128kbit/s speed data afterwards).

I do have a few questions i can't seem to find the answers for, though:


 * There are 2 different APN mentioned for H2O. What's the difference between them assuming my device (Samsung Galaxy S3 - I9300) doesn't support LTE at all, yet supports 3G/HSDPA? What are the implications of using one or the other?
 * Is tethering allowed? If not, is the ban technically enforced? If it is, can one pay some extra to officially allow it, or are there any known reliable workarounds available, that wouldn't get me banned for at least the first 2..4 month i actually need the tethering for?
 * Is the connection fully transparent or are there technically banned protocols, such as Skype and/or other VoIP, VPN protocols (especially the Fortinet VPN i need for work) etc?
 * Does one get an external IP or an internal/NAT-ed one?

Thanks in advance for all the answers.
