Startups like Common Networks are attempting to break into the home-internet market with a different approach than major wireless telecoms:

Internet providers will eventually shift to FWA services to realize savings in two key areas:

Infrastructure savings: Unlike their wired competitors, companies providing FWA home internet service won't need to run fiber-optic lines to each home to provide service. This will make for less work and expense to upgrade the speed and quality of service.

Maintenance savings: The lack of physical lines will limit technicians' roles in establishing a new connection to positioning and setting up a router in a customer's home. And there will likely be less maintenance over the course of use, as there won't be wires or lines to repair. Operators will, however, need to react quickly to any problems with 5G cellular tower sites.
