And then there are the efforts of cell carriers to push traffic onto home wifi - more and more facetime video will also add load.

Let's not forget that actual consumer bit consumption changes very little whether they have 20 megs or 2 gigs provisioned and available. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions Midwest Internet Exchange The Brothers WISP ----- Original Message ----- From: "Miles Fidelman" <mfidel...@meetinghouse.net> To: nanog@nanog.org Sent: Saturday, February 9, 2019 12:20:36 PM Subject: Re: Last Mile Design Speaking of which, the Grant County Public Utility District (Washington State), has wired active ethernet all over their rural county. Seems to me that the cost difference between splitters & switches is a pretty minor component of deploying FTTH - the costs are in the trenching, and the fiber. What you put on the poles, or in the lawn furniture, is a pretty minor cost component. Though... getting power to the switches might be an issue, less so if you're deploying on power poles.
