5G Fixed Wireless Costs are Close to Fixed Network Prices at Intermediate Speeds

With the caveat that prices vary from location to location and also when services are bundled, fixed network internet access prices range from about 12 cents per Mbps (or less) on fiber-to-home or cable modem connections to about 25 cents per Mbps on fixed wireless services. 


Cost per Mbps generally drops with higher speeds close to 1 Gbps.

Very few observers likely believed that fixed wireless home broadband prices would be that close to fixed network services at intermediate speeds.
