A) 5G is only meant to make you pay more for internet+LAN
B) 5G health issues = 99% uncharted territory
A)
local wireless networking is currently dominated by wifi.
wifi equals free.
once you have "one" internet provider, your local area network is fully covered.
adding more devices to your wifi is easy and free.
you'll pay some extra only when you need internet outside of your wifi area (say, a wireless data SIM-card for your tablet), and that's that.
bUt ThErE mUsT eXiSt SoMe TrIcK to make you pay MORE MONEY!!
enter 5G.
all your future devices will be on 5G.
providers will make you pay both on data volume and total devices connected.
basically they want you forget wifi (free, under your control at home) to embrace 5G (faster, not under your control, not actually free)
B)
5G uses high frequency channels (24 to 73 GHz frequencies, with plans to go up to 90 GHz and more; wikipedia for some details).
the higher the frequency, the larger the useful bandwidth, channels, LAN, etc.
note: imagine 1000 "5G" devices transmitting 1 gigabit each, while the "5G towers mesh" backbone can't handle more than 100 gigabits. "Overbooking", anyone? "Throttling", anyone?
the higher the frequency, the smaller the coverage, the larger the number of 5G towers needed.
also, the higher the frequency, the higher irradiated power. cramp even more irradiate power with MIMO technology.
you'll be showered with 24 to 73 GHz RF with unpredictable issues. no true large scale tests exist yet (technology wasn't advanced enough to even start).
99% uncharted territory.
well, good luck with your Muh Gigabits Gigahertz 5G.
Note:
- emails, tweets, SMS, ssh maintenance, etc: in the order of kilobytes.
- pictures, music, documents, bills, PDF's, small videos, websites, etc: in the order of megabytes.
- videos, movies, games, entire operating systems, etc: in the order of gigabytes.
do we actually need "more maximum theoretical speed" or "more minimum guaranteed speed"?
which of them is easier to market?
