| Not only was a lot invested in fiber, but many of the power carriers have pulled fiber along their rights of way, so using BPL as a delivery solution with wireless last mile as the article mentions is kind of a joke when they have infinitely more bandwidth using the fiber they have already pulled. -- CCNA, Comtrain Certified Tower Climber | |
