5G in Houston
« on: October 02, 2018, 12:45:35 pm »
We're one of the first 4 cities to get Verizon's 5G service.  Anyone got it?  Thinking of getting it?  Is it any good?

There are three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city; and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Now you stick to that, and everything else is cream cheese.

Not in Montrose either.  I have started to see where news articles now say Dallas is the 4th city, not Houston.  WTF?  All I know is that Verizon came along and dug up two sections of my previously pristine outside grass, and then did a shitty job of putting it back together.  The least they can do is give me some frikkin' fast wifi.

5G is a wireless technology. Relays are aerial. WTF were they digging in your yard for? Maybe burying fiber?

The rest are pretending, they put on a show
And if there's a message I guess this is it
Truth isn't easy, the easy part's shit

Yes.  Burying the fibre that runs between the nodes.
