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...
