I travel with 6 kids on the road full time in our RV. I have a Sprint Hotspot $55/mo. which is unlimited and no throttle cap! Some places in the US, Sprint doesn't have service so I purchase an unlimited no throttle service through OTR Mobile which uses AT&T towers at $60/mo.. We use close to 900GM per month and it never slows down. Both are great for streaming Netfix and Hulu. My boys run xbox live and I'm getting on average 30 download speeds and 10 up.
I know WeBoost can improve the signal as well x 32. It's a little pricey at $400, but you can find coupons online and it takes me from 1 bar to 3 bars in rural places.
So between the 2 hotspots, I'm up and running for just over $100/mo., but if I had to only choose 1, I'd go with OTR Mobile as AT&T has better coverage in the US, especially in the North West and Midwest where my sprint hotspot doesn't work. Sprint does work good on the East coast.
