Who We Are
Wired Broadband, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) non-profit advocating for the benefits of hard-wired, high-speed Internet access, a superior technology compared to wireless communications. We are working on many fronts (education, advocacy, and legal) to assure that enduring hard-wired Fiber to the Premises (FTTP) is available to all Americans. Governments mistakenly believe that wireless is the fastest option and better choice. It is not.
We support wired broadband in the name of:
-
Faster transmission speed
-
Reality of Internet access
-
Neighborhood aesthetics
-
National Cybersecurity
-
Preserving human health from ambient radiation
-
Neutrality of Internet access
-
Digital Equity
-
Personal privacy
-
Protecting the biological ecosystem
-
Safety & fire prevention
-
Value for the money for all users
-
Resiliency in extreme weather events
-
Reducing climate impacts from this sector
-
Equality in high-speed Internet access
-
Energy efficiency
-
Supporting health in patients with chronic illnesses (who account for 75% of health care costs)
-
Reducing climate impacts from this sector
-
Preserving the hard-earned equity in peoples' homes
-
Quality of voice communications
-
Supporting physical and cognitive health in the elderly
-
Supporting children's health
-
Making enduring tech choices not prone to rapid and costly obsolescence
-
Preserving the sanctity of neighborhoods with revered churches, temples, mosques, and landmark historic buildings
-
Protecting parks as a place of biological peace and refuge
