I have unlimited cellular data on my phone but not if I use it as a hotspot.

What is the difference between cellular data being used on my phone and cellular data being used on my notebook? Data is data.

Google Fi will throttle you after you hit a limit depending on your plan. I unknowingly hit mine after using my phone for a hotspot, watching a few hours of soccer and I think Windows downloaded a bunch of updates too. It was towards the beginning of the billing cycle so the rest of the month really sucked. Might want to double check your plan.
