So it seems that the biggest problem for my son would be the data caps?

According to him, the reason he wants to go this route is that supposedly the (old) building he is moving in to is known for tenants having problems with their wireless, and the service used by the building (MDU? never heard of it) is supposed to be awful. He was thinking that having his own hotspot would let him avoid these problems, and that he could just plug his laptop in to his tv to watch whatever he streams.

We have a Verizon family plan with “share everything.” He has said he would get his own account so as to not compromise the rest of the family’s ability to download. He would prefer to stay with Verizon but would not be adverse to changing carriers for a better deal.
