and here i am in the icann-selected hotel for the icann conference, and they gave us a total of 500MB of metered usage. for our entire stay, not per day. (should be better on the conference net). maybe i should just check out and check in every day. On Jul 14, 2013, at 6:44 AM, Alex Rubenstein <alex@corp.nac.net> wrote:
Yet, here, where I live, only 47 road miles from New York City, I have a cable company who sells me metered (yes, METERED) DOCSIS, for nearly $100/month, 35/3. The limitation is like 100 GB/month or something (the equivalent of the amount of Netflix or AppleTV my kids watch in a weekend) No alternatives, no FiOS, no nothing. Well, I can get 3/.768 DSL if I please.
Someone, please help me.
Please.

Oddly, those living in Grand Coulee, WA.
I went there once to setup corporate connectivity for a regional tire store. They ordered the minimal drop, 50/50Mbs. One of the tire changers there told me that he had 100/100 at home for $50/month.
This was a town without T-Mobile service. I had to haul out the butt set and clip on to the business POTS lines to turn up the VPN.
Most of rural Central Washington has very good fiber connectivity. Forward looking Public Utility Districts FTW!
