and 10 MB/s is quite slow compared to cable and certainly not quick enough
"Buyer to perform own due diligence..."
Having Spectrum means you (probably) don't get Telcom simply because the Federal grants only paid for fiber where broadband wasn't available. Telcom might let you pay construction to bring the fiber, or you could build a radio link and trade backup connections (as mentioned somewhere above) with someone nearby who has fiber. Use a fast radio, such as the (aptly named) AirFiber from Ubiquiti. Cross a subdivision boundary if possible, because their plant will be physically diverse from yours.
Anything less isn't fully redundant, or fast enough. Because big data. I'm more command-line, so it's all about low fixed latency, which makes mifi kind of painful -- works great for a while, then goes out to lunch for a minute, then fine for another half-hour, etc.
Fantastical new 5G technology will solve this problem if the tinfoil hat crowd allows it. (It's not "new construction" so doesn't trigger permitting, nobody will know when to object. Hilarity ensues.)
