But there’s CBRS!
https://www.telecompetitor.com/analysts-question-verizon-5g-spectrum-strategy-company-needs-mid-band-spectrum-but-where-will-it-come-from/ And 3700-4200, or buy mid band spectrum from DISH or Lightsquared or Sprint. I suspect the main obstacle to rural fixed wireless from the mobile guys has little to do with technical standards or spectrum and more to do with business decisions. Rural 5G will look a lot like current 4G. And their interest in going after rural customers seems to wane except when they’re lobbying for something. Well, then there’s AT&T and their plan to use powerlines to guide their microwaves.

Of course I also had a support call from a customer putting his email address into Firefox to get his email, and another who couldn’t understand that her domain registrar was asking her to create security challenge questions, not to answer them. My customers are not necessarily the sharpest knives in the drawer.
