Compatibility questions before arriving to the US

A VPN server can be set up on your PC or on your router running a 3rd party firmware, such as DD-WRT. At this time I'm not familiar with the current policies of AT&T and T-Mobile wrt prepaid data.

Just wanted to update that I just returned from the US.
I purchased an AT&T prepaid sim card.
For my surprise, while in big cities (NY,LA,Vegas) I was always connected with HSDPA and had fast internet Data connection.
When traveled to isolated areas, only EDGE connection was available.

Although most of my internet usage was done using the phone, I had no problem with tethering when needed to use my laptop.
