Re: Here we go again
"holds great promise as a ubiquitous broadband solution that would offer a viable alternative to cable, digital subscriber line, fiber, and wireless broadband solutions" He missed satellite. So, unless I messed up my counting, we've got 5 non-interfering options for broadband deployment (all shooting for 30% market share at least in order to remain profitable) in one corner and a single option that has had almost every trial stopped due to interference issues.
What a knucklehead.

OTOH, the BPL deployment in Cinncinati hasn't had any complaints, and Motorola's BPL has been OK as well.
I'll agree that the economics vs. the competition look real tough; e.g., 'looks like a non-starter for rural deployments, dispite what the politicians say. |

To be fair, almost all those trials were based on technology from a single supplier, one with known interference issues. I think you're right that all of the shutdowns have involved one vendor, however there's two other vendors that have had several interference complaints, one that has been in the spotlight recently and another one that the FCC has been sitting on for a long time. |
