What you suggest makes sense if it was objective! In my neighborhood, the ISP’s organization will feel they have nothing to learn from outsiders. (Worst, both major ISPs are just a subsidiary of another organization. They just implement corporate standards. The local managers are not motivated to deviate from their corporate marching orders.) A public promotion (campaign) of modern best practices is needed. Then I need to have this campaign spill over to the subscriber community. The business community needs to be educated that their productivity will improve. The social leaders need to learn that their community will get better service. Then, and only then, can I see the ISP feeling the need to improve. It helps if the improvement is just open-source software on their hardware investment.

Only 5-10% of households are clearly underserved, in that they do not even get full sync with ADSL, and these tend to be far from the next CO and cabinet, so these are expensive to connect no matter the technology... The EU (optimistic) plan to hook everyone up via FTTH until 2030 is going to be god sent for those households, and since most of these will be built with federal grants they come with (not fully specified) OpenAccess regulations, that might actually allow real competition in offering IA services over those fibers. But the same looming FTTH built out also makes it tough to invest much in alternative technology to reach those households in the interim. > >All the best, > >Frank > >Frantisek (Frank) Borsik > > > >https://www.linkedin.com/in/frantisekborsik > >Signal, Telegram, WhatsApp: +421919416714 > >iMessage, mobile: +420775230885 > >Skype: casioa5302ca > >frantisek.borsik@gmail.com > > >On Tue, Apr 30, 2024 at 11:53 PM Eugene Y Chang <eugene.chang@ieee.org> >wrote: > >> Frank, >> Thank you.

It is just finding a hungry vendor that will fill the (our) need. I like a #3 that is trying to grow. Then if the larger vendor sees our goal is too insignificant to care, the smalller vendor will peel away (insignificant) market share and everyone is happy. If the smaller vendor starts taking away too much market share then the dominant vendor will change. This kind of change is better than talking to a dominant vendor sitting pretty.
