Ironically, ISTM that would probably be good for WISPs. If the FCC
decides that 10 Mbps is the baseline and areas that don't get it
become eligible for USF subsidies, areas with WISP unsubsidized
competitors are among those likely to be hit by subsidized new
entrants (usually ILECs). 4 Mbps isn't spectacular but other than HD
video, it is adequate for most applications. Some 5 GHz systems can of
course go faster than 10 Mbps, but it would be a real crunch on 900
MHz and TVWS networks, low frequencies needed in wooded areas.
