Comment on What is your contingency for when the ISP goes down?

I have a 5g home internet backup connection. My primary internet is fiber, so my thinking if there is a cut somewhere it could also affect cable, so I use over the air as my backup.

I’ve had an ISP outage take down the local cell towers too, so keep in mind that they are possibly relying on the same fiber network that you do at home

My local cell tower is connected to the same street cabinet that my wired internet connection is connected to, and the speed of both of them is about the same.
