Broadband Communities
Planning, perseverance and strategic alliances pay off for the rural community of Bristol, NH, as it overcomes obstacles to bring better broadband and better jobs to residents.
Nicholas Coates, Bristol town administrator
Bristol, New Hampshire, is either underserved or unserved with broadband according to the FCC definition, but it is eager to provide affordable, high-speed broadband to its residents and businesses. The rural town has some internet options, but they’re largely low-speed services from the area incumbent telco and cable operator that can’t support demanding applications.

/EIN News/ Kansas City, Feb. 08, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) Rural fiber-optic network design and construction management leader Conexon today launched its internet service provider subsidiary, Connect.
It also announced an inaugural partnership with Central Georgia EMC and Southern Rivers Energy to launch and deploy a 6,890-mile, fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) network providing high-speed internet access to 80,000 middle Georgia homes and businesses spanning 18 counties.

(Feb 5): The U.S. Federal Communications Commission faces pressure from rural internet service providers to deny a planned US$886 million subsidy to Elon Musk’s SpaceX for beaming broadband to underserved areas from outer space.
Even before winning a competition for the funds, SpaceX had set up its service and begun launching satellites. More than 1,000 of the Starlink craft are now aloft, providing service to test subscribers. The company says its system “is uniquely positioned to deliver high-quality broadband service to the hardest-to-reach rural Americans.”
But that hasn’t stopped complaints about it winning a competition for subsidies from the FCC’s Rural Digital Opportunity Fund, in part because the service was being built without the aid and isn’t limited to rural areas. The planned awards to Space Exploration Technologies Corp., as it’s formally known, and to other companies have lawmakers raising questions about the entire US$9.2 billion program.
