    Wi-Fi is bad for me because the alternative is mobile data.

    I live in Australia where the broadband speeds are 12.5 to 100Mbps.

        I will agree, the situation is getting better.
        But we could have had even better than that 5 years ago if the government hadn’t thrown away a perfectly good upgrade plan to spend more money on copper.
