I work in a building that struggles to get 5G or LTE service. Will a mobile hotspot work/help? How does it work? Do I have to connect it to the same service provider I have or can it be a free-standing provider?

It connects to your mobile phones internet so it’s with whoever you have your phone contract with. It uses your phone’s data, it can’t be free-standing.

If you don’t get 5G on your phone, a hotspot won’t help you.
