<description><![CDATA[tdouglas22 posted : It's not going to be free and I don't think many would expect it to be. However, at some point, profit needs to take a back seat to service. I have no problem with companies making money and I think it's a good thing, but when so many services and products lose quality simply because of the extra money needed to keep the product up to optimal levels, then we have a big issue. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[iansltx posted : How long of a driveway are you talking about? Have a half--mile driveway back in Sisterdale, TX and that's not too big of a deal even for DSL. Sure it'll turn 12k feet to 15k feet, but it doesn't put broadband out of the question.<br><br>As to FTTH, it should be used instead of copper line maintenance. If the lines can hold a decent POTS signal and the phone company doesn't want to upgrade, Motorola Canopy, Alvarion BreezeAccess (cheapish) or WiMAX (expensive-ish) are options worth considering.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[WhatNow posted : Let's see $200k for a rural fiber fed RT with copper out that may service less then 200 homes of which some will not order the service and some have a hard time just paying the cheapest landline bill. That does not leave a lot of customers to have a positive ROI.<br>The only system that will really work in a rural environment is fiber to the house. In some areas even if you put a RT at he end of their driveway the house would be out of limits for anything but 1 to 2 meg speed. The quickest way would be through some wireless setup for a slow verses no connection until you could  build the the fiber network. ]]></description>
