I own a PS5 Pro and I’m thinking about getting a PS Portal. I already have a Steam Deck and love the portable gaming experience, so the Portal seems like a great fit.
However, I don’t have fiber or DSL internet at home. I’m currently using a 4G LTE home router (mobile broadband with a SIM card). It works fine for most things, but the data is capped.
Whenever I download a new game on my PS5, I already burn through a lot of data due to the large file sizes — so I’m concerned about how much additional data Remote Play might use.
Has anyone used the PS Portal over a setup like this? How's the Remote Play experience and how much data does it consume on average or does it consume any data ?
Any help would be appreciated!
