I don't think so. People stream so much nowadays just relying on mobile will probably blow up the system 😛

I have fttp but would dump it if I had a reliable 5g connection. I live in the sticks so am not holding my breath.

I think fixed broadband lines for the time being will be around to stay as fibre optic gets rolled out and capable of much more. But can also see advances in mobile broadband and we are free to choose what is best for us depending on where we are in the world.

Yes. give it 10 years,

It will all be down to the mobile phone company’s to get 5G and beyond as perfect as possible and in reach of every home in the Country. 

I think a price war will take place when 5G is fully in place and more people have 5G devices.

I would be very surprised if we’re still using fixed line broadband in 5-10 years!

Hope no, 4G/5G are too unreliable.

"Will fixed broadband disappear in the future ?" not if three offer such a bad internet "service" over 5G
