Where I live 4G is good and so cheap that I am thinking about dropping my DSL connection.

I would still need a wifi-router as my laptop and my tv does not support 4G. But my guess is eventually those devices will support xG mobile data and my wifi-router will be a thing of the past.

Been doing this for a few years now..AT&T UL data hotspot SIM ($20.mo, aka 'Mobley' plan) plugged into a TMobile ASUS AC1900 router...tripled my speed of Sonic DSL, for 1/3 the cost of Sonic DSL. Do it.

AT&T UL data hotspot SIM $25 is 3GB per month. @ $50/mo for 10GB means no video streaming (eg. Netflix). DSL gives you 1.5Mb 24/7.

I went the Sprint 50GB (really 100GB) @ $60 per month.
