Hnt mining internet speed

Yes it does use your data . Even though it says you’re connected to wifi the hot spot overrides it & uses your cellular data.

How much data does a Helium hotspot/miner use per month? Roughly 250Gb. The equivalent of watching a movie or two on Netflix per day. About 5-20Kbps constant.

The Hotspot uses your existing Internet (via WiFi or Ethernet) to deliver the data packets sent by devices . It does not replace internet or cellular service for regular devices like computers and smartphones.

For me, the Helium hotspot is worth it . However, if you do not have the $400+ to invest and you don’t want to wait a little bit to receive your hotspot, then you might want to pass on this one. I happen to think this is an exciting opportunity.
