Playing with the Gigacube on the PC?

So by the fact that I'm moving soon and we can have only a 6k line there I want to ask if a gigacube would be useful I play a lot of Fortnite and very successful and also discord with friends and Spotify sometimes I play really VERY much so that would be for me the 250GB variant came into question because I would like to know if that's enough with 250GB and if the Internet is good because I play Fortnite professional and also earn a little money with it. It would be very important to me to know if these 250GB are enough because I said a lot of games

And you could stream with it

A 6K line is more than sufficient for mere playing. As you would come with 1-2K effortlessly. Of course, downloading games and updates would take a long time.

Of course, the performance of the Gigacube also depends on the mobile network. With a lot of bad luck you crouch in a radio hole, then brings the Gigacube also little. I would only play it in an absolute emergency. Mobile communication usually has a much higher latency. Lags and high ping are not uncommon. Although streaming would be feasible in principle, in high image quality (HD / FullHD) but you have to expect the hour with 1-2 GB.

Nice idea, but these Gigacubes have high ping as this is shared with others.

Yes the thing is that you do not want to have a good ping with a 6k line and fortnite you need a good ping and from a colleague experience you can't play well with a 6k line some of my friends have a 16k line and they can't play well once

What does high ping mean?

The speed and the ping are two different factors that are not directly related. You can easily have a good ping with a lame pipe. Otherwise, no online play would have been possible in the last few decades.
And even for mere play, the performance is sufficient. The information that needs to be exchanged between client and server is a few bytes to kilobytes per second. If the line runs reasonably clean, there are enough reserves to transfer the required information.

However, if you have several devices in the network and other programs run alongside, yes, then it is no longer enough. But that would also be strongly discouraged in mobile communications.
