I have what is available in my neighborhood, I do believe it’s “dinosaur fiber optic” lines. And I haven’t heard of a 5g connection without data caps where I live either (USA). At least not at any price point I can afford, certainly not 50$!
I have heard most other countries get way better internet than USA, though. But where I live it’s Xfinity, century link, satellite Internet, or through a cell phone plan and they’re all capped and leave some to be desired speed wise. I don’t even live in the sticks or anything!
It uses a cellular connection for your home internet, so it’s limited to whatever the speed of T-Mobile 5G is near you, and unless you live in an area of perfect reception it probably won’t be great for streaming.
The trick in my area is my ISP is a crown corporation that competes with the privately owned ISPs. They don’t give a crap what you do(as long as it’s not too illegal or damaging their service), the standard on their fiber is upload speeds are 1/2 the download speed and you can pay an extra $10/month for symmetrical. I put it to the test once as I was testing online backuo software. GDrive has a limit of 750 GB/day uploaded data, and I did that consistently for a couple months straight(IIRC that was pretty close to maxing my upstream at that time). Never heard a peep.

Zero slow downs even?? How does it do with upload speed? I stream
