Cumulative total data used

AT&T Communication Manager (ACM) is a software applica-

tion that lets you control your connections to either the

AT&T mobile network or available Wi-Fi networks, including

thousands of AT&T hotspots, using the built-in Wi-Fi capabil-

ity of your laptop. ACM offers a range of tools and features

to manage connections, find the best connection available

and connect quickly. Please note that connections to the

AT&T mobile network require an active SIM card inserted into

your Lightning and a valid AT&T data plan.
