Oh okay I think I see what you mean now. Your English seems fine!

Your download speed could be less due to the VPN having to tunnel in, and you're also limited to the network speed you currently have on mobile while you're not home.)

So yea it could be slower than your home network probably since you're limited to current mobile data/mobile wifi speeds and the extra latency from tunneling back home. This is in terms of download speed.

I'm not sure if you are limited to your home network's upload speed. I guess potentially? Conceptually it makes sense. You're probably right. Good question.

For me person it's fine since I don't download shit on my phone. I just use it for calls, texting, and web browsing.

I probably explained this terribly so if anyone else could chime in, that would be great :-)
