CWA: U.S Ranks 25th In Broadband Speed > This lobbying brought to you by the CWA

That web site is provided by and supports the CWA's efforts to denigrate the company's they battle at contract time. Interpretation of results should be evaluated in that light.

From what I can see, they are dead-on as far as showing how badly the American "Broadband" customer is being served and are not getting any value for the money they are paying for said services.

Don't shoot the messenger, fix the problems...

Did you drill down to zipcode level in their maps? Many zipcodes were not counted at all because they logged no tests. Other results were based on 1 and many others on less than 10 tests. Their results are no more reliable than the much maligned FCC zipcode based results.

And as others have commented on - they are measuring PURCHASED speeds and not available speeds.

Hmm, so you are saying the Industry tripe that says an area is served by having just one person with a connection is also accurate

Please, the results this study presents are more credible than the ones the Industry likes to PURCHASE and then parade before Congress in an attempt to keep them from seeing the real story.

Tell you what, when the telecoms and ISPs open their records and show what the real story is, then you will have a leg to stand on. Until then, your arguments against the findings of this study have no merit...
