Sounds like an opportunity for some competing provider if you ask me, though as you say: > And rarely will you find a home anywhere in the US served by more than one > cable company. Was there not once upon a time there was a proposal to require cable-cos to provide what would effectively be layer-2 service to any IP provider? I think that requirement still stands in Canada, but until newer standards-compliant cable modems become more common it's "hard" to do and so nobody's doing it yet (and there is some whining on both sides). -- Greg A.
