Re: Well If The Industry Had Thier Way... True, but some middle ground is required in this. Obviously the industries standard is a joke (as is the idea of still accepting advertised speeds vs actual), but I'm still curious how anyone can think that asking for 5Mbps symetric is a good idea for how to define broadband.
I can think of a few folks in the industry that might not mind a definition like that. Suddenly the entire country, including major cities would count as under served. Then all of this money could go to back bone providers who are the only folks capable of providing the new definition of broadband without having to worry about the new rules on network neutrality that come with the funds. |
