So we'll have a different shitty ISP? My shitty carrier (T-Mobile) does DNS hijacking of all NXDOMAINs, and pretends like it's perfectly reasonable.

I'll believe that when I see it. Until then, I believe that any wireless communication is inherently inferior to wired communication.

Canned soup is inherently inferior to homemade, but it only takes 2 minutes to heat up, travels well, lasts a long time, and can be bought almost anywhere for cheap.

If it can achieve 1 Gbit/s as advertised and scale to enough customers? It just might.

But I'm going to be interested to hear the first real customer's experiences. For example what is the latency they're seeing? Weather outages? How well does it handle peak hours?

Don't misunderstand, the current ISP competition in much of the US is super toxic, and I don't support it. But 5G promises a whole lot, and I cannot ignore the technical side of why it may fall short.

5G just means I can use all my data plan in seconds rather than minutes.
