Hi, I’m someone working on the rural fiber expansions. Those are what we use to feed the cell towers. You don’t want to rely on microwave or what else have you.
Thing is, we already paid for connecting a majority residences. The corporations we paid just didn't do it.
They weren't just paid, they were paid repeatedly and they repeatedly didn't do it.
