5G offers faster speeds and lower latency compared to traditional cable connections.

The initial delay you notice only gives part of the picture. You're vying for bandwidth with others on the tower for packet priority. Checking round-trip time to a server would reveal notable fluctuations. Packet drops remain a problem too.
Physics rules dictate that signals travel slower and are more prone to delays, drops, and loss compared to fiber. Natural elements like branches or rain cannot move unpredictably through your connection. With FTTP, each user has a strict time window for communication, preventing interference from external factors such as air reflections.
