5G has barely made it outside metro environments.

@Gibbon well the good news is, some countries are about to roll in 5G...
Hopefully this will slow down the process but I doubt it.

@FreestyleArt I have yet to catch a 5G signal anywhere in the central part of my state which includes a historic city populous.

@FreestyleArt Nope it's all for greed money not to actually benefit us. The combination of my wifi, which is capable of 1gig but I only for 1/2 that, and my phone or laptop run Speedtest runs at 470-490 Meg. Personally my real world experience is no different than running 100Meg hardline. All the server transitions drag their feet. TBH sometimes downloading reflects the benefit but everyday browsing absolutely not.

@Gibbon i only download music. Which is it.

@FreestyleArt I don't even do that anymore. I just listen from the source when in the mood. I used to do torrents for movies, and learned about opening hundreds of ports to speed the process. But that's been too risky for many years now. The big thing I notice is lag when browsing no matter what speed I'm getting. I'm not willing to try but I bet my torrent techniques would fly through large downloads these days.

@Gibbon i use YouTube converting to MP3 in websites. Although it's a whacked quality depending on each video's music quality and the website. It's sometimes a struggling.

@FreestyleArt I get it. I used to make a lot of CDs for the car. But my biggest problem with YouTube as a source is the volume on many videos is too low. Nothing I read about increasing it works for me.
