Re: What a waste
I don't think FTTN was a bad choice. The bigger problem is AT&T's 25mbps, 3,000 foot target.
Had they placed the nodes closer to homes, they could easily have 50mbps or more per home. That would have given them much more wiggle room for more advanced internet speeds, better HD quality, and more streams.
The physical size of the nodes could have been a lot smaller if they were serving fewer homes, too.
I would love have to have 3 HD streams, but count me in as being skeptical about the quality implications of reducing the bandwidth.
