    I am surprised nobody has come out with a antenna per utility pole and/or streetlight solution to increase cell density. Connect the antennae with fiber and drop it on the doorstep as well.

The "we need more bandwidth" argument is and always has been maximally Bogus. They are just to frakking cheap to upgrade/build out their infrastructure because it would cut into all that wonderful grant money from taxes we paid that they were given to do just that. Asshats.
