Project Name: Higher Speed Residential Network Connectivity
Project Leader: Joanne Costello
Report Date: 8 June 2000
Submitted by: Joanne Costello


Accomplishments of the past period:

       *Talked with NetAccess. Pricing was too high ($200+)
       *Coordinated testing with HarvardNet

Goals for next period:

       *Continue testing with HarvardNet.
       *Work on the final report.
       *Interview Speakeasy
       *Submit names of "failed loop qualification" individuals to another
vendor to determine if problem lies with HarvardNet or elsewhere.
       *Set up DSL line in n42 demo center


Issues:

       *So far 7 out of about 18 individuals have been rejected for DSL
service by HarvardNet. In fact most members of the team were not eligible.
We are trying to determine if they would be eligible for service with a
different ISP.



Key Learnings:

      * none that are not stated above as issues

Team Dynamics:

       *none
