Yes, I get the "different network" thing that OP is talking about (as compared to the "same network" home connection).
OP would definitely burn up data communicating with his Hopper from a distance. No argument there.
However, I'm pretty sure that the "different network" distinction was lost on some folks.
How do I know that? When I asked several tech support people at DISH and Sling if using the
same network would use broadband data, they said Yes. I figured if the tech folks got it wrong, others would too.
