However, when I want to tether my laptop, then I'd LOVE gigabit+ speeds.
I did a speed test about an hour ago and got ~23mbps down and ~4.7mbps up on LTE (B2/66/12 aggregated). Ping seemed okay (22ms) but the jitter (13ms) was quite high. 5G should help with the latter for sure, but not sure by how much.
