Re: The map is missleading It looks to me that they are using the same method that the FCC uses. If one address in a zip code has wireless then they all do.
Chattanooga has 3 ISPs that also have wireless networks. I am rather familiar with the coverage of all 3 networks and I know that there are areas that are not served that the maps shows as served. |

Given the choice between "nothing" and a big steaming pile of bull shit, I'll take the nothing thanks.
Fudging numbers even a little bit puts the entire project in a dubious light, and makes it easier to dismiss the entire thing. |
