Hello everyone, I'm using my mobile LTE connection as the primary internet source at home to power my desktop. I'm wondering if it makes sense to tether from a USB C port to a USB 2/3 port or switch to an Ethernet adapter via an adapter. My typical speeds are under 60 Mbps download, upload under 30 Mbps, and ping under 20 ms (LTE Note 9). On the other hand, my average is under 50 Mbps download, upload under 20 Mbps, and ping below 30 ms (USB 2 Desktop). For the desktop side, I have similar numbers—under 50 Mbps download, upload under 20 Mbps, ping below 30 ms (USB 3 Desktop).
