Low income package

At the 756k package you don't qualify for most online schooling. It just drives more and more customers to our wireless Internet services. 756k doesn’t meet the 4 meg to qualify as broadband AND streaming wont happen at that connection. Voip calls with a couple of user online forget it. I'm sure that Comcast will stick it to someone somehow. ALL monopoly’s eventually do.

Most low income children don't use online schooling.

In fact, I am sure most children don't use online schooling.

This is just fine for what it is intended to do, provide a means for low income children to access the internet - primarily for schoolwork and research. You certainly don't need faster than 756k for that, and it seems to be 1.5mb from all reports. I don't know, I pay for the faster tier but this seems like a genuinely good thing.

A lot of wireless ISPs dont fit the 4/1 definition either.
