italy, a house in the so called 'rich' nord est, where 'Lega' party has been ruling for decades:

* no fiber in the neightbour I am * internet on mobile: 10M when lucky * all houses have no city water pipe

I'm glad they started to collect blak water (a month ago)

Currently in Palermo old town. Got fiber and get 200+ mbit over wifi. Even 5g when I go out.
oh, once you have a real fiber I guess problem is solved: the issue is to be in a building where you can have it.

btw: 5G here, too, but speed is slow (wind3).

What does your speedtest with palermo says? I have no doubt it's pretty slow :)

Didn't test 5G, just the wifi over fiber, but didn't perceive any slowness when using it.
let us know: my personal experience (which includes a winter in downtown Palermo 2 yrs ago) is that speeds is pretty poor: it's much better in Addis Abeba, Kampala, Kigali...
On the train elsewhere, but can try if there's any 5g there.
