This is where good management of your data transfers can help. Planning for uploading and downloading at specific times usually takes the strain of the system.

Towers usually only affect people at longer distances, it is as you said upgrading to 50/20 it where it really starts to play an important role. Although as more users go up the distance for good reception goes down as well. So much to consider, but as long as they continue to upgrade there is a chance for me.

Curious does FW have unlimited accounts like Fibre plans in the Urban areas?
