I pay $25 for my backup 5G internet - but unlike a mobile plan, it's actually unlimited at 300mbps, and I don't have to resort to TTL shenanigans and such to use it for my whole network. It's just plugged into one of the ports on my router, and provides it with real public IPv4. Ran it for a few days when the fiber dropped out and consumed 200GB without complaint from either myself or the ISP.
> Romania reportedly has unlimited for 4€ but I don't know which operator.
Orange Yoxo is the only one which has actually-unlimited, all the others have a fine-print somewhere with "up to X GB/month, then bandwidth is severely throttled".
I'm using the 4.9€ plan for a mountain webcam[1] and they have been true to their word, no throttling so far.
The bottom of the page does give some details about what "unlimited data" means here in the UK between the different carriers. Some cap speeds, some monitor usage and then either turf you off on "fair use" grounds or do traffic management/shaping. The general rule seems to be 650GB in 6 months is just about the limit of what is ok.
That wouldn't be anywhere near enough for me. Looking at my router I see I've downloaded 522GB in the last 34 days alone.

I think it’s uncontroversial that cheap, unlimited 5G exists in some places.
Where on earth are you living with that kind of price point? Unreal.
Italy, France and Spain have 200GB+ plans for 10€. Romania reportedly has unlimited for 4€ but I don't know which operator.
US plans just aren't comparable as they've been historically f'd with astronomical monthly payments.

UK is a bit more expensive than that but not silly.
I can get close to £10/mo but that's because I'm already paying that carrier ~£30/mo for two separate SIMs (mine and my kid's).
The £9/mo deal offered below is just half price for 6 months, it then becomes £18/mo.
