Obviously people who have access to cable and FiOS aren't going to use fixed LTE. DSL is iffy, it depends on how reliable the line is, copper networks haven't been maintained very well in many parts. These deployments primarily target areas that may have only one Satelite Even my gramma on Centurylink 1.5mbps line can blow thru the 60GB cap in a month. A 1.5mbps line can do 16gb a day. Sad, but true, that LTE services are a fail and overpriced, for sure.

Max theoretical data transfer on a connection is irrelevant and usually only serves as an attempt to bolster a weak argument.

U verse is not available here and neither is Comcast.
