  • How Fixed Wireless Access Is Reshaping Broadband

    In this episode of The 5G Podcast, Lucas and Luna dive into fixed wireless access (FWA) — the quietest revolution in broadband. They explore how T-Mobile and Verizon are using 5G to deliver home internet to over 10 million subscribers combined, challenging cable incumbents like Comcast and Charter. Lucas breaks down the economics: FWA costs carriers less than fiber to deploy, especially in suburban and rural areas, and generates strong average revenue per user. Luna questions the capacity constraints — can FWA handle peak-hour demand as adoption scales? They discuss real-world speeds, the role of millimeter wave vs. mid-band spectrum, and what happens when fiber catches up. The episode closes with a look at competitive dynamics in 2026, where FWA has already captured nearly 10% of the U.S. broadband market. A must-hear for anyone tracking the future of connectivity and the business models behind it.

  • Why Private 5G Networks Are Growing Faster Than Public Ones

    In this episode of The 5G Podcast, Lucas and Luna explore the rapid rise of private 5G networks—dedicated cellular infrastructure deployed by factories, warehouses, ports, and campuses. They dive into the numbers: by mid-2026, over 1,200 private 5G networks are live globally, up from fewer than 200 in 2023. The conversation focuses on why companies like Bosch and Volkswagen are building their own networks instead of relying on public carriers. Lucas explains the economics: private networks offer lower latency, predictable performance, and data sovereignty. Luna questions whether the cost—often $100,000 to $1 million per deployment—limits adoption to large enterprises. They discuss the role of spectrum, the rise of neutral hosts, and whether mid-sized manufacturers will follow. A concrete look at how 5G is becoming an industrial tool, not just a consumer upgrade.

  • T-Mobile and the Race for Mid-Band Spectrum

    In the debut episode of The 5G Podcast, Lucas and Luna dig into the most consequential number in wireless right now: 2.5 gigahertz. That's the mid-band spectrum T-Mobile scooped up from Sprint — and why it now covers 90 percent of the country with its 'Ultra Capacity' 5G. We explain why mid-band matters more than millimeter wave or low-band for real-world speeds, how Verizon and AT&T are scrambling to catch up by repurposing their own airwaves, and what the C-band auction means for the next two years. No hype, no vendor talking points. Just a clear look at the physics, the business, and the competitive math driving the 5G buildout. If you've ever wondered why your phone shows '5G' but sometimes feels like 4G, this episode is for you. Lucas and Luna will be here every two weeks to untangle the network infrastructure stories that actually shape your mobile experience — with real numbers, real decisions, and a healthy skepticism of carrier marketing.

About The 5G Podcast with Fexingo: Wireless Networks, Carriers, and Mobile Infrastructure

From the publisher's feed

Lucas and Luna examine the business and technology of 5G — the network architecture, carrier strategies, spectrum auctions, and infrastructure buildout that underpin next-generation wireless. Each episode picks a single angle: how a carrier like Verizon or T-Mobile is deploying millimeter-wave vs. mid-band spectrum, the financials of tower-REITs like American Tower and Crown Castle, or the supply-chain dynamics behind radio equipment from Ericsson, Nokia, and Samsung. They analyze FCC auction results, compare capex plans across operators, and break down the implications of Open RAN and network slicing for enterprise customers. Lucas brings the numbers — spectrum license costs, per-subscriber revenue, tower lease escalators — while Luna challenges the hype, asking whether 5G's low-latency promises will materialize for autonomous vehicles or remain a fixed-wireless access story. The show is for investors, telecom professionals, and tech strategists who need a clear, data-driven take on the wireless market, not vendor propaganda. Why does a 5G signal drop in a stadium, and what does that mean for the carrier's $50 billion spectrum bet? That's the kind of conversation you'll get.
