I get 10-15Mbps at home via cable modem, and honestly that's plenty fast for 99% of what I do. John Hornbuckle MIS Department Taylor County School District www.taylor.k12.fl.us From: Jay Dale [mailto:jay.d...@3-gig.com] Sent: Wednesday, March 17, 2010 12:54 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: National broadband >From what I gathered from this site, they just want to release the capping the ISP's do on the available bandwidth for the customers, not necessarily allow Internet for all citizens. ISP's truly have a large amount of bandwidth available to consumers, yet to control pricing and overhead they cap speeds and gradually release them on an accounting-time-period-basis. I have AT&T at my home, and the highest Mbps down available is 24Mbps, but compared to a year ago, its twice as fast. So it just happened to be available now instead of last year? If I were to pay $65/month for 100Mbps/50Mbps, I would gladly do it. So long as it's available. Knowing it's available yet being restricted is what is irritating. Jay Dale I.T.

If I look at my home service, 24 Mbps down and 1.5 up, is running $65. That is pretty cheap, but still a LONG way from 100/50 Mbps. I am really curious what the government feels is "affordable access"? It would seem that only businesses would pay more than $100/month for service, but a business would require some type of SLA. At my office, I COULD get 100 Mbps service, but have no idea what the price would be. Considering 3 Mbps service is costing me $530 for a business line, I would not even want to consider the price.
