What is the difference between cellular data being used on my phone and cellular data being used on my notebook? Data is data.

Yep, lack of broadband in this AirBnB I'm staying in is the only reason I was using it as a hotspot in the first place. The speed here is about the speed they'd throttle it at. I kind of had to fork over the $15 or deal with slow internet one way or the other.

It always blows my mind going to a rental and the rental has no or lacking Internet. Yes, I'm probably on vacation, but it's the future and life requires a few megabits. Years back I made it standard procedure to prep some kind of mobile broadband for my destination (buying a month of prepaid for a hotspot or whatever) fully expecting it to just always suck, it's annoying that this is still a necessary procedure in 2024.

Unfortunately, I didn't pick it. My mother is paying. And when I asked my mother if she looked to see on the AirBnB ad if this place had high speed internet, she said, "other ads did, but this one didn't." Sigh.
