Same here. Before fiber came to my suburb I could only choose AT&T or Comcast. AT&T’s fastest plan was 50mbps and never pulled more than 30. They’ve had permits here to put up Verizon 5G towers for 5 years but haven’t built a single one because of the tin foil hat brigade. I would love to switch to Verizon because I’d save a shitload on bundling it with my cell phones. Verizon has LTE but that would be like going back to the DSL.
Spectrum's "deal" for my location was 500/10 mbps for $90/month "introductory price". I asked what the price would be at the end of the introductory period, and they refused to tell me.
Meanwhile, Frontier gives me 2/2 gbps for $100/month, no price changes.
I have no interest in TV, I don't even pay for streaming, so at the end of the day Internet performance is all I care about.
What you need is to get your neighborhood on board. If you can generate interest they it suddenly becomes more cost effective for a company to install fiber.
