New minimum speed for US broadband connections

Fri Jun 4 14:18:42 UTC 2021

GPON is full duplex.  Two different wavelengths for the two directions.
1490/1310.

Wireless we'll say you're doing 20 MHz.  That doesn't divide up.  That's
simply 20 MHz half duplex.  With fixed timing (for colocation) it means
that you simply can't shift your ratios.
