5G is also an enormous upgrade from DSL, and better suited for dense urban areas. Here in the UK it's at least 4X faster than Starlink and 1/4 the cost. I haven't had any fixed-line internet connection at all in the past 2 years since cheap 5G became available.
Starlink is great for rural areas, which often have poor DSL and neither fibre nor good mobile coverage.
