So I have T-Mobile in a major city. Whenever my ISP goes down, my normally fast 5G slows to a crawl due to the increased load. So it seems like when you need this the most is when youd get the worst performance.

I live in the middle of nowhere up a gigantic mountain with gigabit fibre and have literally never once had an internet outage

WTF is happening in the US that makes outages common?

We get an outage every month or so, I blame construction, but I honestly don't know.

It's common for that user, not the US.
