Idk where to ask so here it goes: Recently I moved out into the woods and without me knowing, the only option available for internet is satellite. The MS is horrible and it's on average around 600 and spikes to 2000 occasionally. I've heard that getting a hotspot will improve the MS but I don't get any service out there (1x and 2 bars at most).
My question is this: will getting a network extender and connecting my desktop to my hotspot improve MS/Latency?
>inb4 read the sticky
I've called 7 different companies and keep getting pajeets pls help

No,its satellite,its not ment for low latency

Bit would getting a hotspot and connecting to it rather than the satellite be better?

What do you mean by "hotspot"? An LTE modem?
Where I am we have either satellite, or LTE internet. The LTE has to be within range of a tower typically put in by the ISP, not the regular cell towers.
We had a problem getting internet for a while since satellite was too expensive and the ISP hadn't quite expanded out to us at the time.
You're still gonna get pretty shitty ping since your still using wireless but it would be better and usually cheaper than satellite.
Thing is, most LTE providers are expensive as frigg and usually capped quite low. Around here the most you can get is 100GB badnwidth cap, and 25mbps down, 1 mbps up. All for the low low price of $129 Canadian Pesos.
You could use your phone as a hotspot and use the internet from that, but you must have an amazing plan to even be considering that.

Finding out internet options should be one of the first things you do when you move. How stupid are you?

Get a better antenna?
Setup a VPS and install Ziproxy(on the fly compression). Check if squid has something similar.
