Some cell providers are very selective regarding the level of content they
deliver. I've read about people having a great streaming package with their p
hone, however it is tied down to 360p due to it being viewed from a phone. If
you used a cellular gateway, the provider would treat the data differently.
Of course, that discount or special would've been restricted to running off a
mobile device. Even though T-mobile and other providers are offering 5g to
gateway devices, there is probably a "fair access" policy in place to meter
or restrict the same level of usage you can get from fiber or cable.
