I thought I'd take a few minutes to comment on the USF and other attempts to tax VoIP as if it were a fresh new source of tax revenue for Democrats everywhere. Of course just like the last draft from a congressional staffer re-writing the Telecom act of 1996 (over 300 pages) this FCC document is

In reviewing the NPRM, (FCC 05-205: CC 96-45 - WC 05-337), I found 40 we seek comment requests. This NPRM is as expected, a complex issue and will take some distilling to comment on the most important issues that would be of relevance. Frank Muto Co-founder - Washington Bureau for ISP Advocacy

And maybe, the temporary FCC experimental license whichtemporarilly has allowed BPL today, will be allowed to continue to exist? Or not? Still a risky investment, until BPL has been given a perminiate license to exist. Tom DeReggiRapidDSL Wireless, IncIntAirNet- Fixed Wireless Broadband

What they really need to do is just add WISPs as logical beneficiaries to USF funds, and the problem would be fixed. Then who cares who would pay into it. It will never be possible to add VOIP providers as USPF fund recipients for Rural area, because its near impossible to control where the

For around $1000 a month I think you can get a 1 gbps wireless link from Gigabeam, that would work for that distance I think. Atlas has been working great for us, using 5.3 for that short distance, you likely can get the full 54 mbps. We are getting about 36 mbps throughout for a 14 mile link
