We do have cell service. We're in an older 1950s development that was never rewired, but not far from newer developments.
The biggest problem for me is that downloads keep getting bigger and bigger. The latest AAA games are almost 100 GB and take days to download.

- bradknowles 3y agoThe GP may well only have 4G/LTE available, not the faster 5G/fixed wireless. In our neighborhood, the 5G/fixed wireless stuff is not yet available from T-Mobile or Verizon, only 4G/LTE. And either way, even that coverage is spotty and speed varies highly on the time of day that you're trying to use it. All this is fine for a tertiary backup solution (behind Starlink) but not as a primary method of accessing the Internet.
