In many other countries, 4G is so inexpensive that many people use it as their primary Internet connection though.
They don't see a need for a modem hooked to a wired line necessitating a second subscription and procedures to follow when you move apartments, when in any case you will have a 4G connection that follows you around on your smartphone.
- Reason077 5y agoI've been using 5G as my primary internet connection since January 2020. It's much faster than wired broadband in buildings that don't have fibre installed. It's also cheaper (I pay £30/month for unlimited data), there's no contract locking you in to 12 or 24 months of service, and I can take it with me whenever I travel or if I move house.
- jeffwass 5y agoIf you have a desktop, how do you provide the 5G connection? Is there a better way than providing a wifi hotspot with your mobile phone?
- Reason077 5y agoI have a Huawei E6878-870 5G mobile WiFi (other brands are available), which provides a "proper" WiFi base station, so no need for a phone hotspot. I have a separate cheap SIM card for my phone.
