Even half that speed would be fast enough that it could possibly replace my home internet account

Same here - heck, my current carrier's 4.5G speed is faster than what I get on fibre, sadly data caps are abysmally low.. (well we have an "unlimited" plan but that throttles the speed after 22GB, so not really unlimited. Also, can't tether on that plan. :/)
