50GB cap. 300 Mbps. That&#x27;s a 51200 MiB cap if we generously presume the GB is GiB and a speed of 37.5 MiB&#x2F;sec. 22.7 minutes until your cap runs out.<p>All these higher speeds on heavily throttled and capped networks just means that you hit your throttle or pay-per-MB cap that much faster.

Fits for many use cases but not all. Upload speeds and data caps mean there’s a very specific way you can use this type of internet.<p>I’m glad that this is actually starting to look like real competition. That’s ultimately what we need.

This will be amazing. I used to install Verizon 4GLTE home devices and it could have been great without the horribly low caps on data usage.<p>If 5G allows for 500GB+ caps, then cable cutting might extend to internet cable cutting as well....
