Thanks, I will do this. The ssh advice worked. BUT, I am supposed to be getting 4GLTE for my hotspot versus 3G that others offer. I'm not at all happy with throughput in general. I will report back after some testing for a few days and locations. If I get a wham-bam huge difference, then I'll report back right away! Thanks everyone for the help. I'm already moving forward!
