Broadband in America from an insider.

I am on the other side-

Routers, switches and servers.

I am in year 27.

I stared with 48K then 56, 128, and T1.

That's what connected all of our outlying campuses/sites back to our data canter and then to "the cloud".

I got to help troubleshoot the connections with the ISP, be it the phone company or a cable company, etc.


I wish I had bought stock in Vermeer, after I first saw them directional boring for retrofit fiber.

In the past year, there has been a flurry of new activity.
Some is new housing activity, some is filling in areas that got passed over the first few times.
