For those who have AT&T DSL in rural areas. The nationwide phone provider AT&T will decide November 7 to decide what to do with landlines in your area.
1. AT&T CEO said that the company may upgrade the landlines, thus expanding U-verse.
2. AT&T has sent to the FCC to repeal the rules, allowing the company to cut off your phone and internet service. The FCC rules is that a telecommunications provider must provide services in rural areas, including DSL Internet. Repealing the rules could also allow cable companies to discontinue internet services to their customers leaving satellite internet (HughesNet, Wildblue) the only providers.
The plan is to make wireless broadband available to all rural areas.
