Doubtful. You will always be able to get more bandwidth out of wires than out of any wireless connection.
The more I read about problems with 5G (health
Lower power, 5" wavelength, will operate at 4g almost all the time (because 2 watts at 240ghz most likely won't even make it the length of a football field and is entirely line-of-sight. Even at 2.4 ghz rain fog and dust interferes with signal strength.) What 'health problem'?
and radio astronomy
That was over YEARS ago. Don't EVEN blame that on 5g. It's microwave SMOG caused by PULSE CODE MODULATED SQUARE WAVES, not 5g specifically. The 'corner' of the square wave emits even order harmonics from DC to Daylight and always have since PCM was a brand new thing. Back when there WAS NO PUBLIC INTERNET (yeah... that long ago) the Astronomy mags were already reporting that the Radio Astronomy equipment was being moved to remote places like Hawaiian mountaintops (There's an ongoing battle with the natives in Hawaii about one right now https://www.space.com/thirty-meter-telescope-protests-close-observatories.ht.... One media outlet is whining 'Fuck the natives. We're losing valuable observation time.' Yeah... Fuck them too.) Rr Sent from my Androgyne dee-vice with K-9 Mail related are the last ones I remember),
the more I have doubts about it, and especially wild, far-flung predictions like this one.
