The install math for a Wyoming household
Median Wyoming household income: $73,008. Typical internet stack runs about $85/mo, or $1,020/year — about 1.4% of pre-tax income. If you want a pro install (mount + cable management + Cat6 to the router from the network closet), Wyoming-area rates run about $135/hr; typical job is 4 hours = roughly $540.
What Rick recommends in Wyoming
Wyoming is still primarily cable for residential broadband. The fiber buildout is incoming via BEAD but hasn't hit most blocks yet. For now: cable plans in the 300-500 Mbps range cover any 4K streaming household, and you don't need the gigabit upgrade unless you have multiple heavy uploaders on the same connection. For Wi-Fi: skip the carrier rental gateway, buy your own Eero or Orbi mesh, save $10-15/month on rental, and you keep the gear when you switch ISPs.
