I'm stuck with my current service provider, so I'm opting for a mobile data router. This is my first time using one, so I want to make sure it's reliable and doesn't have major issues. My goal is to slowly grow the network—first in one room, then expanding throughout the house. I have access to fast 5G, LTE, 4G, and 3G connections, plus budget-friendly unlimited data plans. Any advice would be super helpful! Thanks a lot! Caboose

It’s best to review all the TOS guidelines for the service provider. In the US, carriers sometimes have limits—like unlimited phone plans but data caps on hotspots and throttling after a certain amount. Cellular providers do provide home internet options, though you must use their devices; T Mobile seems to have an exception for business plans, but those are usually pricier. I remember one instance where there was a 1TB soft limit that could lower priority data usage, clearly mentioned in the terms. Ultimately, choose your carrier carefully and confirm their supported frequency bands.
