Arlo Indoor Essential with T Mobile Hotspot

[astar]

So I'm gonna be living in a hotel for 6 months and was thinking of getting arlo indoor essentials for my room. I don't want to use the hotel wifi for them as I don't think that would be secure (also I don't think I can set them up that way) so I was thinking of getting a t mobile unlimited hotspot, however ik that it's only 10 or 5 Gb of 5g/4g speeds and then after that it's unlimited 3g. Would it work with 3g speed or should I consider something else? Btw the Hotspot can use 2.4 Ghz and 5 Ghz and I would probably use the Hotspot every once and a while for a digital photo frame and I was possibly thinking for a roku stick but I might just connect roku stick to TV wifi. Thanks for any help!

The 1080p indoor camera requires 1 mbps upload, the 2K model requires 2 mbps.  Download is only used for firmware updates and camera control.

Upload speed would be a problem with 3G, as T-moble only advertises 380 kbps.  You could check to see if their home internet service is an option in that area - I don't think it has a data cap.
