Don't y'all suppose that the Commission did this so that small wisps
could not get access to USF since we can't meet the 25mbs benchmark.
And since they are fixin' to require us to become common carriers that
rule will make us pay into the USF without being allowed to withdraw
money from it because we can't easily provide broadband. That's what
the commission did to us paging carriers a few years back. I suspect
this is to benefit the ATTs and the COXs throughout the country, all
the while bending us little guys over the barnyard fence.

+1. They have the added complication that they are way
oversubscribed compared to almost everything else.
Let's not even mention latency.
If "broadband" included something about latency (like "just" < 200
ms for instance), then they would lose big time.

Doubtful. They can't sustain those speeds wide spread any better

at those sustained speeds, the only tech that could
realistically deliver to the rural market right now would be
satellite wouldnt it

Even if you don’t deliver 25Mbps as defined, can’t you
just put a plan rate for 25Mbps and give it some
ridiculous price that no one will ever buy, then claim
broadband?
I mean the other lower plan rates wouldn’t be broadband,
but your company could be branded as selling broadband?

1.Is the 25Mbps classification immediate?
2.What are you NOW going to call your previously
determined ‘broadband’ service?
