These are the speeds the ISP advertises:

I don’t know much about WISP but I suspect speed will vary based on distance and line of site to towers and how congested they are.

Most of the WISP systems I work with max out at 30 Mbps, but it’s also older tech. In Rochester though there really are better options so that’s kinda insane that any one would be using that, it isn’t typicalky cheaper than cable at the very least.

When I worked for a WISP, we guaranteed speeds up to 100 Mbps up and down. Most of the tests done after installation were about the same as what I get at home on cable from Xfinity (only terrestrial option here). If they weren’t, it usually meant we fucked up and probably knocked the dish out of alignment while tightening it.
