It wasn't that long ago when all you could get was 5MB hubs and they were expensive and didn't work all that well.

they should not allow fixed wireless, they never should have allowed technology with a short shelf life

    The director of BEAD quit.  He says the previous rules interpreted
    the bill to mean that only FTTH would meet the performance and
    future-proofing requirements.  He is claiming that there are
    proposed rule changes that will allow Starlink but not allow fixed
    wireless.  I don't know whether the changes
    /intentionally/ benefit Starlink, but this guy is crying foul and
    felt strongly enough about it to resign over it.

    I’m surprised BEAD hasn’t run into problems because the E stands
    for Equity and DEI is now banned.

    But if they eliminate the E, would it just be BAD?
