Allied Fiber has submitted reply comments to the FCC referencing others' National Broadband Plan submissions.
The purpose of the reply comments is to help the FCC, NTIA and RUS see the inter-relationship between the various network segements of last-mile, middle-mile and backhaul and the respective organizations that address those components.
The "solution" to the problem of rural broadband is not so easy when looking out from within the rural areas themselves. If they are viewed instead as part of a larger "network of rural islands" and how they are located between major served areas of broadband access the true way forward can be observed.
The first round deadline of August 14th is getting closer. Hopefully there is enough time to get the correct message out and across to those that are making the decisions regarding fund allocation.
