Fixed wireless still capped at 75/10 and lucky to get 25/5 in peak hours... So this is just extending the digital divide they claimed would never happen
They’re actually upgrading the Fixed Wireless network to 5G already as we speak. All customers will be upgraded to 100/20 capability and the wholesale price will match other technologies. This means those on 75/10 will receive this automatically, and for free. From mid-2024, 90% of customers will be upgraded to 200-250/20 capability, with the same wholesale price as the 100/20 offering. This aligns with the speed tier upgrades in the OP. They will also start offering a Superfast tier at 400/20-40 to 80% of customers. Part of the upgrades include ensuring peak throughput, and doubling the range of each tower to enable new connections to a bunch of satellite customers.
