said by PapaMidnight:said by munky99999:so as long as they advertise something fast... despite never delivering that speed to anyone. It would still be broadband?
I think they addressed that quite clearly:
...at a minimum, broadband should be defined as a symmetrical telecommunications service that can reasonably deliver (at all times, including peak-use times) to each end-user of a connection, 5 megabits per second (Mbps) of bandwidth (in both the down and upstream directions), at latencies low enough to enable high-quality real time voice and video two-way communications.
The point I was making was that the industry's definition wasnt taking it into account.
