Oh, the places fixed wireless access will go

“You do not like it, so you say. But try it, try it and you may.” Like Dr. Seuss’ famous green eggs and ham, the people have tried fixed wireless access (FWA) broadband and by golly, they like it. These days it’s here, it’s there and—if a pair of fresh survey reports are any indication—it's not going anywhere. New reports from Ericsson and J.D. Power show FWA beating cable and competing well with fiber rivals in customer satisfaction. J.D. Power found that FWA users have the highest customer satisfaction rates, regardless of their location, with fiber coming in a close second. A report from Ericsson found that fiber had a higher overall customer satisfaction than FWA, but only by a slight margin of 2.5 points on a 100-point scale. It might be bad news for cable, but FWA is here to stay, according to Recon Analytics’ Roger Entner.
