Someone on my town Facebook page complaining about not having any options for internet (Comcast only in our town) and someone chimes in not to worry because wired internet is dead and everyone should just 4G through T-Mobile SMH

    That wouldn’t be a problem at all. Many businesses already do this (DAS design) either customer specific on their floor/suite, or the building has a full blown building wide system each tenant can jump on.

    Wireless in-building can and will replace wired for most companies for general use (with wired connections directly to servers and not employee level computer work).

    Really the only issue is user error from employees (initial connections). In-building antennas permeate through everything fairly well except solid walls, but they still can bounce around solid walls pretty well.

    Honestly it makes the most sense for skyscrapers like NYC where tenants move and demo floors every few years. Leaving backbone fiber connections only to their Server rooms.
