Thread regarding Verizon Wireless layoffs

5G bet is a bust

Haircut Hans Vestberg bet the farm on 5G. Haircut Hans lost. Different world now. We are all home working on our cable internet lines. We don't need 5G now. In fact, we don't even need mobile phones, since we're all much less mobile. Bet the farm, lose the farm.

Fixed wireless 5G has a future but, trying to build a mobile 5G network using that mm wave spectrum has been a huge waste of time and money. Of course if the culture at VZ was the way it used to be where engineers inputs were listened to and respected, management would have known this and not wasted time and money. Instead, the upper echelon has surrounded themselves with "Yes" men and they have everyone afraid to dissent from the group think. Ever since D–k Lynch departed, they have been a rudderless ship. Sad.

This person posts the same thing more or less about once a week. Throw in the towel because no one is mobile at this exact moment in time, 5G will be a bust, blah, blah, blah. Get some new material bud.

Stop trying to pull everyone into your short sighted viewpoint.

Probably the most asinine comment on this site. If you work for Verizon, you should find another job.

the future of home internet is fixed wireless. 5g still has a place. Elon will bring us Starlink soon too.
