I think Google loon could be the answer to some of these problems. Google Fiber also announced something about bringing wireless 1gbit Internet. Despite Google Fiber being a good business for Alphabet I think many of these thinga Alphabet introduces are just a kick to monopolistic telcos to get with the times.

All technologies of this sort are challenged by extreme variations in demand in different geospatial areas -- for instance you have to provide coverage for uninhabited ocean areas, etc. Inevitably around big cities you will find concentrations of people who want to buy reliability/diversity at any cost, and if you don't keep these people out, they will affect the system for 100s of miles around them.
