Cost for truly unlimited data - Wifi/hotspot
I know variations of this have been asked before so apologies in advance. As our travel season ramps up I am looking for a hotspot. I work remote and so I will need to periodically work on some days ...

"unlimited internet"
Why the quotes and case change
There are two limits
Hotspot data .. once I cross that point the hotspot is "Throttled"
Over all... Once I hit that point the phone has its priority reduced. that is if the tower is busy. I slow down first.
Selected Video streams are NOT metered.
I usually hit hot spot throttling about 20 days into the month
Only went over the phone's "limit" on occasion.
Never really felt the slow down as I do not stream much video.
NOW.,, T-Mobile and AT&T both have one hot "upgrade to 5G" plan
Faster data.. I am not sure about the limits,,, T-Mobile is pusing a Samsung Galaxy A-32 5G at me (i get it next week) Current phone is the same prodct line but S-7... Sadly the hard case won't fit and the printer no longer has that pattern in stock.. Found one close to it.
Since moving into the apartment I got Cable Internet now I never hit the limit. I still use the phone's data for two of my Raspberry Pi-Zeros though (They stream audio.... both ways)
