Yes when using a cell as a hot spot its the same as connecting to a wireless router. Only issue would be if your cell companies blocks tethering or Netflix.
Tip.. go into Netflix settings on their website and set the quality to low. When watching on a big TV the low quality is not bad looking and it doesn't use much data. It's a few 100mbs a movie vs gigs when you watch in HD.
I have 30 gigs of data via Verizon my cell plan and a jetpack each has 15 gigs. With setting on low I watch a lot of Netflix just on the jet pack and even if I burn the full 15gigs I can still usually stream at low quality on the limited bandwidth.
