Pretty sure this is just a hit piece directly or indirectly influenced by Viasat. Ookla results mean nothing to RDOF, nor do any results today mean anything for a 2028 goal.
If anything, it's a great sign that v1 of a new service (which is only ~15% deployed) is even close to the RDOF commitments. V2 satellites and p2p laser will be inlay before 2028, along with far more terrestrial POPs, which will all improve service.
- aidenn0 4y agoTotally agree this is a hit piece; pretty much everyone who has taken federal money to deliver rural broadband has done far worse than Starlink. That being said... > V2 satellites and p2p laser will be inlay before 2028, along with far more terrestrial POPs, which will all improve service. Is this something that there is more evidence for than just "Musk says so" since he is notorious for promising results on unrealistic timelines.
