Usb modem vs Phone internet share

[AlvarP]

Does a usb modem have a lower latency than if i connect to internet via my phone using wired internet share (phone is Honor 7 i don't know if this is a common feature)?

Because it would kinda make sense that a device that is built to give you internet access (usb modem) should perform better than a phone.

If i remember correctly (not at home currently) my ping is around 50.

If it's the same exact connection, then the latency will not really change. A modem vs a phone hotspot has plenty of other advantages though so if you can get that setup, do it.
