It's plenty fast enough for me too, even when I watch Netflix or YouTube or other content in 4K, I've never had any lag ever. The price seems reasonable too. And if the price I pay to my ISP is within $5 or $10 a month of everyone else, well, who cares?
So, why would I give up fixed fibre to have a wireless connection instead? What would be the problem I was trying to solve?
Even if I got pissed at my ISP and decided to go someplace else, my fixed fibre infrastructure is already in place, so why would I go wireless?
And if my experience is like most others, and my hunch is that it is, I don't think Chorus has much to worry about from wireless connections. There is room and a place in the market for both.
