I live in a major city with cable internet everywhere along with fiber in some areas (unfortunately not mine), but I’ve had multiple instances of carriers’ salespeople knock on my door selling 5G home internet service.
The reason this doesn’t make sense to me is 5G will always have a much higher latency than any wired alternative — it really only makes sense to sell this stuff in rural areas without the infrastructure. What’s more is the most recent carrier has a reputation for extraordinary coverage but their network is CDMA so their network speed is one of the worst in the city.
Wouldn’t it make more sense to sell this stuff elsewhere?
Because they already built the towers, so going door to door to pick up more revenue makes sense, even if your market is saturated.
Maybe someone is fed up with their current experience, maybe they are gullible, maybe they just want to talk to some nice salesman and will buy the product for the company.
