I am a relative novice to streaming video. My cellular plan allows unlimited on device streaming but throttles tethering and hotspot use after 15GB to 600kbs. I have become aware that there are set top boxes that can access Netflix, etc, that have a Sim card slot. I have not seen any description of whether the data usage is considered on device or tethering data? If it is considered on device, my plan would be to move the Verizon sim card from my Samsung Tab A to the set top device.

I did not see any mention of these devices on the Technomadia website. Is anyone using one of these set top devices? What cellular carrier are you using? How does the signal reception/connectivity compare with a phone? Have you used any kind of cellular signal booster? Any actual experience would be greatly appreciated.
