Town of Dunn keeps up the pressure for high-speed Internet access. (12/23/2011)

And as for some of Esbeck's other whines, here's some information recently shared with members of WLA's Library Development & Legislation Committee.

• 95% of BadgerNet’s 2,420 sites either get a 90% subsidy from TEACH or are state agency sites which are required by DOA to use BadgerNet. If these two conditions did not exist, the state would have a network that hardly anyone would use because it is too expensive. (And remember, the $17 million TEACH subsidy goes right back to the telcos.) 
•  A 1.5Mbps circuit on BadgerNet costs $460/month.   Most households have 2-4 times this capacity at well under $100/month. -- 
• The FCC’s benchmark of “broadband” is 4Mbps.    90% of Wisconsin public libraries have less than this and thus they really don’t have broadband.

Dunn Internet: For Buddha or for worse.   (McFarland Thistle, 12/22/2011)

Excerpt: The lack of high-speed Internet access in Dunn township was enough to frustrate a Buddhist monk – and it did.

George Churinoff, an American-born monk and member of the Deer Park Buddhist community, was bewildered by the lack of high-speed access in Dunn and surrounding towns.

“Here we are, just miles from Madison – a metro area – and yet residents in the area were relegated to dial-up Internet,” Churinoff said. “It was very frustrating to be so close to an urban area and have high-speed all around us, on all sides, then there’s this blackout spot.”
