Re: [WISPA] ConnectEd

Unfortunately, pricing is all over the board, and there are schools that are buying 100 meg circuits. In CA Comcast territory, they offer 100 meg by 10 ( or 20 ) for about $399 per month. Now, we all know that Comcast cherry picks where they provide service, so there are those that are a block a

Re: [WISPA] ConnectEd

Right now the rule of thumb for adequate bandwidth to a school is 100k per student. Documenting what schools currently have is a hot topic for the national broadband map. We are diving deep on this topic in Illinois and it’s like herding cats. We did hear back from the Chicago City Schools and w
