[Hidden-tech] T1 --> Wireless neighborhood down in Levrett

[Kiernan G-S]

To my knowledge most of Leverett now has the availability of pretty
affordable DSL through Verizon or Crocker Communications.   Is it
still cost affordable for this neighborhood to be using this
networking and sharing the cost of a T1 (and the troubleshooting costs
associated)?

 Or does it make more sense to help them transition to private
dedicated DSL lines?
