Recently, my YouTube video, “5G Monetization: Understanding the Wi-Fi Bottleneck,” sparked some questions that deserve a detailed exploration beyond what a video can offer. To provide a deeper understanding and to respond to these thoroughly, I’ve compiled this article, complete with supporting notes and references. Consider this piece an essential companion to my video, offering a fuller picture with the necessary context and explanations.
Operators will be unable to monetize 5G technology
The diagram below illustrates this issue. Presently, existing Wi-Fi networks lack the capability to effectively extend the full throughput of 5G networks to consumers’ homes (Refer to Annexure 1 below for a detailed explanation). This limitation renders the substantial capacity of 5G networks underutilized and redundant.
