    But I am comparing my options in a given price range (average for a household), which is likely the most common criteria. Fiber tends to be expensive and rarely pre-installed, which comes with high costs

      OK, but that’s not what this article is about and that’s not what I’m talking about either.

        My bad, I thought the article is talking about wireless network and the guy above was talking about wireless in comparison to cable, and so I gave my 2 cents, but apparently nothing I say is relevant

        EDIT: It was you not some other person, but my point is that I disagree with your initial statement about wireless never winning over fibre because when it comes down to real life, costs is everything and apparently no one cares about power used anymore. I believe in future the cables will be mostly used for data-centers and other specific needs.

          You’re talking about 5G vs cable or DSL. This article is about the upper bounds of wireless technology. Those aren’t the same topics at all. One is about physics and computer science, the other is about the business plans of telecom companies.
