I still don't get enough speed to consistently view streaming video.

As mentioned in my previous post (above), I tried a Jetpack and ran tests for 45 minutes, switching bac and forth between using my S7 as a modem and using the Jetpack. I placed them, one after the other, in the same exact spot and tested the speed , as a modem. I switched back and forth 7 timed and found the Jetpack download speed varied between 1.7 and 2.9 Mb/sec. The phone download varied from 4.7 to 6.2 Mb/sec. If you're considering a Jetpack, run your own comparison first. Maybe you'll get better results with an older smartphone.
As a result, I returned the Jetpack (with a $35 return fee) and turned on my old S5 to use, exclusively as a hotspot. I mounted the S5 in a Wilson Sleek with a Wilson yagi antenna on my rooftop. I still don't get enough speed to consistently view streaming video.

Lots of good information on this thread. I didn't see any discussion regarding PDANET.
If one was to use PDAnet to tether, would this data be considered "hotspot" data, or would it be phone data?
Thanks in advance.

You can add 2 tablets or hotspots to the single line plan for a $20/mo line access fee.
