How viable is using a Spitz router with a Visible sim card in it for internet?

Specifically for gaming and streaming in HD? Would I be able to share play games still as well or is that not happening even if I get the better Spitz router?

It will perform a little better than a cell phone sharing internet if your signal is marginal. I've never really liked cellular based internet for home, but if it's all you have...

I have this setup with the wave form antenna on my roof. I work from home. I dont really game. Little palworld on my steamdeck that's it.

Does it seem to have good speeds when you play on Palworld?

Speeds are fine from the spitz. ISP speed depend on the tower and its usage. Test speeds on each band i find 71+25 for best fot me

Visible was noticeably deprioritized enough to where I could not recommend it for gaming.

Streaming and overnight updates or downloads are where I found use for Visible before I switched to Starlink for bulk downloads needs.

did you have the $45/month one or the $25?

Looking through my emails – I was paying $40 before I terminated in early 2023. I don’t immediately recall what plans they had offered.

If you’re planning on going mobile there are some spots where my Verizon SIM was running on 3rd party towers. In those areas I wouldn’t get connectivity with my Visible SIM.
