Yeah, at home I pull several terabytes a month over LTE. I can't imagine that doing this while abroad would pan out too well.

out of curiosity, which country is this and how common it is among others? in Czech republic I am seen as a weirdo when I use around 10gb/month - most people are comfortable around or under 1 gb.

This is in .fi, I've got an unlimited LTE plan and it's way faster than the ADSL here.

If I messed with my antenna setup a bit I could maybe get the speeds closer to 600mbit than the current ~100.

If it worked as well abroad that'd be amazing, but I'm sure the carriers will come up with some schemes to prevent that.

in CZ you can't get unlimited LTE plan AFAIK. The most expensive plans are around 30gb. Current speed in metro area is approx 70 mbit with a regular LTE phone without special antenna.
