| rural broadband i moved here in 2003 and fiber was already here then when katrina hit and the copper crossing the road to my mobile home was hit with a tree , they came back and ran fiber to my home BUT broadband is nowhere in sight. cable modem in 1 (ONE) mile down the road . at&t finally put a dslam 2.7 miles down the road in a small town but only a couple of streets have dsl...fiber isn't the problem here ....must be politics cause they have been piling the usf money up for far too long...i don't know of many places that don't have basic phone service so they are not using that money for that... we have well paid lobbyist in this country |
