Someone on my town Facebook page complaining about not having any options for internet (Comcast only in our town) and someone chimes in not to worry because wired internet is dead and everyone should just 4G through T-Mobile SMH
China is starting to roll out their 6G already which promises 100Gbit/sec. By the time the rest of the world gets its from a other vendors China will already have over 2 million towers upgraded to the system, just like what happened with 5G.
Verizon UW MM is good for 1500 ft with nothing in its path like a leaf, person or even glass. After they realized that Verizon spent 54 billion on mid band C spectrum and deployment in an attempt to compete again. Looks like deployment is slow. Fiber is King and the only choice to feed the towers.
I’ll give it this much… They’re not fully wrong about the internal wiring and Comcast… Although, if you had good wiring and it’s been good, then dies overnight, probably NOT your wiring.
I bundle my mobile and internet for savings… I was unaware that was a bad thing. Hmph.
Funny, Comcast added some wiring and a splitter inside my apt last time
5G chip in his vaccine acting up
Haha, try that with rural UK building stock. Some of the walls of buildings I have lived in have been over a metre of stone, no WiFi goes through that and lives. Getting cable through is damn near impossible.
Even my current 1930s home has foil backed plasterboard everywhere that is a pain in the ass. It’s just easier to run cables.
Wired networks are always going to be needed for some use cases. Even if they are getting less frequent.
5G is close to parity with wired internet…
Oh man, I’m coughing from laughing to hard
I get 1Gbps on my 5G connection. It’s not that insane.
Moron Alert! 14G turns out NOT to be the solution
Apparently this person doesn’t know about latency.
I’d love to see an office full of computers, scanners, printers, and phones all run on wifi but that will never be the case and anyone who thinks otherwise is just plain crazy and will never understand the needs of businesses. A small house yes, but not anyone who has needs outside of scrolling Facebook or checking emails.
That wouldn’t be a problem at all. Many businesses already do this (DAS design) either customer specific on their floor/suite, or the building has a full blown building wide system each tenant can jump on.
Wireless in-building can and will replace wired for most companies for general use (with wired connections directly to servers and not employee level computer work).
Really the only issue is user error from employees (initial connections). In-building antennas permeate through everything fairly well except solid walls, but they still can bounce around solid walls pretty well.
Honestly it makes the most sense for skyscrapers like NYC where tenants move and demo floors every few years. Leaving backbone fiber connections only to their Server rooms.
Tesla, I was an apart of wiring that building in Texas. They do not have hard wired drops for the works laptops. Everyone uses laptops it’s all wireless. Printers are hard wired drops, TV’s are hard wired. Machines are hard wired but the workers laptops every single one is souly wireless at the building.
Not google fiber installing fiber in the neighborhood down the street
ATT blew through my neighborhood, digging trenches and planting fiber sooooo……
They are right, wired I twrnet is dying Networks will continue till the end of the world as we know it…
That post is written by a moron. And yes, Comcast will repair inside wiring issues. This isn’t the phone co.
