Fiber Internet and cable are included in mandatory HOA fees (yay HOAs) so this seems weird. No other homes in the area have anything like this. Also, I’m 99% sure this unit is a full time Airbnb if that might matter (and why I can’t just ask my neighbor wtf is on their roof). Did some reverse image searches and didn’t find a match, that 5G seemed closest to my untrained eye. I don’t like tech shit that I don’t know what the hell it is. Particularly when it’s aimed close to my house. TIA!

    Like others have already said, looks like a cell network antenna. Maybe service sucks inside home, so they got a repeater/amplifier?

      Or if the home owner rents the place an an AirBnB and the cell coverage sucked, maybe he agreed to have an antenna installed at his home for a small income supplement from the carrier?
