It's a consumer thing. If consumers wanted more options, they would be supporting those options with their wallets. 
They don't.

So for my point of view, better solution is to push some law that ease 
access to the buildings for ISPs.

What kind of internet are these devices on? With Net Neutrality gone here 
in the US it would be a good way to measure certain services such as SIP to 
see which ISP's if any are tampering with packets. 

Given previous history, the answer will probably be "most of them". 

"The results are not inspiring. More than 129 million people are limited to a 
single provider for broadband Internet access using the FCC definition of 25 
Mbps download and 3 Mbps upload. Out of those 129 million Americans, about 52 
million must obtain Internet access from a company that has violated network 
neutrality protections in the past and continues to undermine the policy today. 

In locations where subscribers have the benefit of limited competition, the 
situation isn't much better. Among the 146 million Americans with the ability 
to choose between two providers, 48 million Americans must choose between two 
companies that have a record of violating network neutrality."
