In my home i have internet connection(50 mbps) with a data limit of 100GB. Suppose if i am outside with my laptop or mobile and i have very less speed and data usage limit than at my home. I am thinking that if i use RDP to connect to my home i can use my home internet connection and data without exhausting the data on my mobile if i do it directly on my mobile or laptop outside.
example : If i watch a movie of 1 GB on my mobile it will consume data of 1GB on mobile itself so i am thinking of connecting to my home PC via RDP and watch it which will only consume data on my home PC and not much the mobile data. The same would go for reading emails ,browsing etc.
Please clarify my doubts.
The actual difference is video streaming (youtube) vs. sending pre-rendered commands (outlook email - mainly text with descriptions how to render). RDP, XDMCP, and similar technologies send pre-rendered desktop commands (e.g. left,top,right,bottom coordinates + color of a window instead of each individual pixel). VNC, TeamViewer, etc. sends everything after it is rendered. Video is already in pixels. So RDP can't do anything special to use less bandwidth. – TamusJRoyce – 2018-08-13T14:30:20.250
