Re: What a waste of money

No its not a waste of money. Rural areas have no broadband other than WildBlue and the like which is more expensive and very latent.

USA needs a big push for broadband in the rural underserved areas. For the average urban and suburban area, BPL can also freely compete HOWEVER the free marketplaces as of now mean that BPL wont be competitive offering.

Wireless is the only broadband for the rural. BPL will never make it out of the cities....

What's funny is that even Wireless isn't coming to my area.
