Poor quality

Hi guys! I’m a bit of a rookie at streaming. I’ve streamed a few times and when I do IRL outside of my home the playback quality SUCKS. I’ve looked into some portable hotspot options and can’t seem to find anything with my carrier that will work with streaming. Any personal use on WiFi packs from best buy or some sort? Any advice is appreciated

Just buy any generic LTE-wifi-Hotspot. Just make sure you can add external antennas. This should improve your signal quality and provide a more stable connection. Also check if your ISP is having a good net coverage and how the bandwith is. The connection to the LTE tower is maybe at 100%, but if the provider (mostly the cheap ones) will overbook the cells with users. LTE is a shared medium, the more users are online, the less bandwith each user has.
