I believe there are actually 2 current 5G technologies. Verizon’s has about a 1000 ft radius & ATT’s is longer, in the 1 mile+ range. But you are correct, both way shorter than 4G. The issue for rural areas (most of NH) is subscribers/repeater. There aren’t enough to justify the cost/repeater. I don’t see 5G in non-urban/suburban areas for a long while unless there is significant state/federal subsidies for installation. It just won’t be profitable without them.
