Stream to twitch using mobile data?

[magicammo]

I've been wanting to stream games to twitch but my home internet is wayyy too slow, but my mobile connection is a lot faster upload wise Ive tried streaming before using my mobile connection but when i did I got a lot of lag while playing online titles. My pc is fine and built to stream and the connection speed on my phone is 8 down and 5 up which is more than enough to stream 720p. anyone have any ideas on what the issue could be? I was gonna try and stream via ps4 to see if it made a difference.

The issue is going to be your latency first and foremost, but your phone carrier is also going to start throttling you as soon as they see high amounts of constant bandwidth consumption.

i checked that too the latency was at 50 but they werent throttling my data I was using like 100gb a month no throttle so i dont have to worry about that. the latency isnt too bad only about 30ms more than my home connection.

it doesn't matter if you have a high bandwidth cap, the telephone providers don't take nicely to you eating all of your allotted upload constantly.

Not only the latency, but also the fact that 4g/mobile data is INCREDIBLY unstable connection wise. Just because a speed test says you get 5mbps, doesn't mean that it is a good connection.
