NEW from @ATT CEO John Stankey: Demand for mobile connectivity is skyrocketing but we’re facing a supply and demand mismatch of licensed #spectrum to power it. Read more in @FortuneMagazine and hear more live today at the Fortune #GlobalForum. fortune.com/2024/11/12/ceo…

FWA continues to be the only broadband technology in the US with customer growth. 919k FWA customers were added (net) in Q3 2024 by @TMobile, @Verizon, @ATT and @UScellular Without Altice yet reported, fixed broadband providers collectively lost 277k customers (net) in Q3.

Key insight from Richard Bennett's report on Wi-Fi performance relative to spectrum shows that further additions to Wi-Fi's already disproportionate share of mid-band spectrum will provide little benefit to Wi-Fi users and will undermine the performance of wide-area networks. A…

Highlight from Richard Bennett report: newer Wi-Fi versions with larger channels offer incremental improvements at close range, but don’t affect the practical performance of modern Wi-Fi networks. Learn why Wi-Fi doesn't benefit from additional spectrum: bit.ly/4eKOfan

Like a doctor prescribing antibiotics for a viral infection, more unlicensed spectrum risks the long-term health of our communications system and isn’t doing the Wi-Fi patient any good. Richard Bennett explains: there's no need for more WiFi spectrum broadbandbreakfast.com/richard-bennet…

Today I published a research paper (Lessons from the History of Wi-Fi) on the (minimal) effect of the FCC's unfortunate assignment of 1,200 MHz of new spectrum to Wi-Fi. Touted as essential to keeping up with the ridiculous download speeds now offered by cable companies /1

According to new report by Wi-Fi pioneer and Internet policy expert, Richard Bennett, Wi-Fi no longer needs additional unlicensed spectrum and there are more effective ways to enhance Wi-Fi efficiency. More: bit.ly/4eKOfan

I just got a new 5G @Snapdragon PC for work ... and it's changed my life. It's so good not having to worry about WiFi! Take a look at how I spent a full day at @coffeechecknyc @espresso77 @LGAairport and elsewhere, getting things done effortlessly, everywhere!

If court cases go against the FCC, the agency could have: -no Title II broadband authority (CA6) -limited "digital discrimination" power (CA8) -no universal-service program (CA5) -minimal power to issue $ penalties (Jarkesy) Plus, no spectrum-auction authority (Congress).

Former FCC Chairs @rehundt, Bill Kennard, & @TomWheelerFCC , former Chief of the FCC Auctions Program @kobham , economist Paul Milgrom, & current FCC Chairwoman @JRosenworcel discuss the success of spectrum auctions & what they’ve made possible. More: bit.ly/3YirJAN

The Supreme Court’s recent decision in SEC v. Jarkesy will likely have a profound effect on the FCC’s enforcement practices. Our white paper takes a closer look at the decision and its implications – including the likely need for future legislation. spr.ly/6018i7YLQ

This is big. The decision inherently signals the court’s determination of appellants’ likelihood of success on the merits against the @FCC #TitleII #netneutrality

6th Circuit issued administrative stay blocking net neutrality rules until (at least) August 5.

Chairwoman @JRosenworcelFCC underscored what is needed from Congress to face future challenges at the @EnergyCommerce Oversight Hearing, “The record of the United States and the FCC to take airwaves and put them to market is second to none.”
