Jawad,

But those were early days. If left alone, we may have had something more
advanced and even better. At the very least, we wouldn't be in the mess
we're in now. ;)

Yes may be true .. but I think it would be naive this think so..
The evolution of the telecom and internet, I believe are inter-related,
think of it this way.. if there was no internet, then why would folks
need your wireless connection ?
Least we forget before the internet, there were the BBS o
Well, it allows for VoIP, which we should all be doing to help our
bottom lines.
it also helps many WISPs obtain their connection to the net, but they
should be doing something Bell-less anyway.

Bingo! It had nothing to do with the wireless business.

It didn't allow entry into the internet business per se.
It allowed entry into the DSL business.

Only a handful of companies (that have a significant market presence)
took to the spirit of TA96. They piggybacked on the RBOCs while they
build out their own infrastructure.

I had dial-up before 1996. Reading the lists over the years, people
were starting to do wireless then. Fiber networks were already starting
to be deployed.
TA96 just changed the costs of doing so and forced the Bells to share
their copper.

Thanks for the history lesson, Fred! I'm glad I pointed you this way
from the replacement ISP-CLEC.
These regulations certainly spurred the ecosystems that enable us to
deploy cost effectively today.

I presume you mean that ironically, as a sample of one does not

worked in telecommunications.
I'm okay with that. That makes my service that much better and easier
