I find that number VERY dubious, because of things like this (from that
report, page 14):

It is likely that a significant number of consumers do not know the details
of their home Internet connections. Some, for instance, may confuse a
wireless home network working off wireline broadband with a “fixed wireless
provider.” Given the opportunity to pick more than one category, in
conjunction with uncertainty over how they connect to the internet at home,
some respondents inaccurately chose more than one category of connection
type.

For all we know, most of these folks think that since cousin Jed fixed 'em
up a wireless router, that's "fixed wireless."
