Why 5G Internet Providers Are Replacing Cable Faster Than You Think
Comcast Xfinity and Charter Spectrum lost nearly 1 million broadband subscribers in 2024, while Verizon, T-Mobile, and AT&T gained about 3.7 million 5G fixed wireless home internet customers. T-Mobile reported 7.3 million FWA subscribers by Q2 2025, up 454,000 in one quarter. U.S. 5G home internet plans typically cost around $50 per month, with speeds from 100–300 Mbps down.
