FCC to study how internet equipment supply affects service availability.
The FCC would study how the availability of internet equipment affects how widely advanced internet services are deployed. This means the FCC would get a better understanding of potential roadblocks to faster internet for Americans. Internet providers would not have to give the FCC any new information they aren't already providing.
Today, the FCC reports on where advanced internet services are available. However, it does not specifically study how the supply of network equipment affects this. If this bill passes, the FCC would assess how internet equipment availability has impacted the deployment of advanced internet services, using data they already have.
