Nevada City, CA | California already has this threshold In 2012, the California Public Utilities Commission set a 6 Mbps download / 1.5 Mbps upload definition of "broadband" in order for providers to receive 60% funding for new project deployment from the California Advanced Services Fund. That effectively made DSL-only areas in the state, eligible for funding. Not sure what the cable providers are whining about, since the funds would go into rural areas that they don't currently serve and have no plans to serve. Now the trade off, in California at least, was that AT&T and Verizon are "claiming" that their 4g/LTE networks provide those speeds in rural areas. Right. |
