another internet and cell phone question

sorry for the multiple posts. hitting bumps while we are driving down the road. What works for us, is we each have a smart phone that we use as a Hot Spot. We can wirelessly connect our laptops to the Hotstop for internet access for the laptops. We discontinued using a jetpack when we got the smart phones. We also have two DirecTV DVRs that we use for our televisions. Our roof mounted in motion dome sat dish went out about a year ago so we are back to using the basic 18 inch round sat dish wired with coxial cable to the DVRs. We are content with standard definition reception but many NEED to have High Def.

If you go with the smart phone option and find that you don't like using it as a hot spot, Verizon will be happy to sell you a jetpack later.....
