Pretty much all homes built between 466A and 44 have fiber optic cable to the house. This means houses built probably 13 years ago. Many areas south of 44 do also as well as some areas north of 466A. I know several people with internet via cellular and are happy with it. I also know many people who are happy with Spectrum and Xfinity although the apparent need to periodically call to renegotiate the price seems to be a disadvantage. When asked, I encourage people to switch to Quantum Fiber (aka CenturyLink), if possible, partly because of their fixed pricing.

You should at least pony up for the latest firestick when on sale. The firecube is really quite nice with extra inerds and built in Alexa
