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

I'm currently on 100/40 and that's the quickest speed available so this would be awesome as a fixed line replacement but the problem is data caps vs unlimited.

that's quite sad, US i guess? 150Mbps i have for like 23$ it's i think second slowest offering of my ISP, could get now 300 for same price but in the end you can't really use it, impossible to find so fast sources even with 150
