New national broadband map has flaws
The federal government last week finally released a national map of broadband services, but it leaves a lot to be desired.
It’s helpful to be able to see on a map which areas of the country and your area can get high-speed cable Internet access. It’s also neat to be able to type in your address or ZIP code and see which companies offer wireless Internet access there.
But it’s frustrating to see that after two years of work, some of the information is incomplete, incorrect or out of date. There’s much you might like to know that the map and its accompanying database don’t provide, most notably how much broadband services cost in your area.
