Rural Canada.
On a lake shore.
30km from one of Canada's "Top 50" cities.
Where I used to live, I had 2 options for internet access.
A Wireless ISP that uses a parabolic antenna pointed at a water-tower about ~20km from my home; or a cell-phone based internet connection.
The WISP allowed me on average 300kb/s transmissions.
The Cell-Phone allowed me between 1.5Mb/s and 7Mb/s (to a max use of 5GB/month).
So 50Mb/s is an incredible upgrade.
- bcrl 3y agoSounds like your WISP isn't investing in the new generation of massive MIMO radios made by companies like Cambium.
