"Fourth, the rules recognize that broadband providers need
meaningful flexibility to manage their networks to deal with
congestion, security, and other issues. And we also recognize the
importance and value of business-model experimentation, such as tiered pricing.
These are practical necessities, and will help promote investment
in, and expansion of, high-speed broadband networks. So, for
example, the order rules make clear that broadband providers can
engage in "reasonable network management"."
I'm not sure "reasonable" will be defined until the actual rules are released.
McDowell's take on "reasonable":
"'Reasonable' is a subjective term. Not only is it perhaps the most
litigated word in American history, its definition varies radically
from country to country."
In other words, it's a vague term that is used when they do not want
to spell out details, but want to leave it to "rule of man" decisions later.

Any analysis yet on whether WISPA got part of what it was asking
for? I've skimmed those notes, and aside from one brief mention by
Commissioner McDowell I don't see anything regarding fixed-wireless at all.
