L4sBotFCC chair wants to boost broadband standard to 100Mbps
brightandshinyobjectHow is that not already the standard?
where i live my choices are fixed beam wireless internet that caps out at about 75mbps, at&t dsl that caps at 10mbps, satellite or i guess Starlink
But it’s a healthy and competitive market right?
super healthy, very competitive
did i mention that i barely get 5G service at my home but if i walk 100ft down to the street i get service?
Gotta love that, there are technically two providers in my area, no fiber, one of them supports asymmetric gigdown/30 up for $130/month cable and 60 mb dsl fo $70/momth. My mother who lives 15 minutes from me has symmetric gigabit fiber for $70 from the same provider that does DSL for me.
oh same, if i go half a mile down the road to the next housing development they have cable, fiber, dsl, the works at prices equivalent to or less than what i’m paying for the fixed beam wireless connection.
utterly insane
