Frontier Fiber Optic and 5G Internet Service

What ZEROHAWK has correct is that the 5G signal doesn’t go very far, hence the need to install relays every 1,000 ft (or less).

So they’re on utility poles everywhere. Brown boxes with wires going to half-round, cylinder or flat panel antennas.

Then there are huge network nodes, arrays with many antennas. Some are very obvious and some are disguised as trees.

  

See “exposure warning” notice which is posted on all relays and arrays. The fake “tree” is an AT&T installation in Tucker’s Grove Park and the white tower is a Verizon array on Kellogg near Cathedral Oaks Rd. They are everywhere. Ugly, but not dangerous if you keep your face three feet away.

Has anyone used Frontier fiber optic internet service in Santa Barbara and if so, could you share your experience. Their website claims you can get internet service with 500 mb/s upload and 500 mb/s download for $49.99 a month. This sounds pretty good. Maybe to good to be true.

  1. *yawn* “4G wavelengths have a range of about 10 miles. 5G wavelengths have a range of about 1,000 feet, not even 2% of 4G’s range. So to ensure a reliable 5G signal, there needs to be a lot of 5G cell towers and antennas everywhere” this is a copy/paste from both Verizon and TMobiles web site. So if what you are saying is true, we would have 5G towers ALL over the place. They only broadcast 1000feet, whereas a 4G tower broadcasts 10 miles. Read em and weep….but hey, i know you Edhaters love to argue logic and fact, so have at it lol
