>> WiFi is basically solved for 90% of people.

> I have 2GB fiber

Your usecase/situation is totally legitimate and valid, but I assure you it is not shared by 90% of the population.

Its just $100 plan from my ISP. Assume most people in my neighborhood have 1GB or 2Gb pipes.

It is about $40/month plan in India for 1GB connection. I am also pretty limited by wireless speeds.

Saying something is true about 90% is just a clever way of inducing the 10% to comment ;)

Yeah, most people are using their phone as their main computing device and have an "unlimited" <cough, bullshit> data plan and just use that.

If they have wifi at home they're using Comcrap (and the like) equipment that was set up for them. They have zero clue how all that works. And honestly, why should they? Most people really don't need to know. They just need it to work if they're paying for it.
