If your computer can connect to WiFi then yes it can gain access through hot spot on your phone. However, it is going to use your data from your plan so depending on your plan it may or may not be a good idea. As far Verizon having service for this, yes they do. They sell individual hot spots that can be added to your plan. The pricing, and allowed data is going to depend on what plan you have chosen, so without that information its hard to give an idea if it is cost effective or not. As far as reasonably fast, its going to depend on your location, and again your plan. Most unlimited plans have a cap on high speed data, then can be lowered depending on traffic in your area.
