I’ve never had great luck accessing the FCC’s video streams of its open meetings, but I was hoping for a better experience this time around. No dice. After a great deal of stuttering and regular disconnects, I lost the stream of today’s meeting entirely about an hour in. It’s not my individual connection that’s at fault either. Some notable tweeps are reporting similar problems.
As a reminder, the FCC is holding its open meeting today to discuss a number of broadband reform plans, including how to bring broadband to unserved areas, how to spur innovation in the video device market, and what the heck to do about the CableCARD fiasco.
Somehow it doesn’t bode well for the national broadband plan if the FCC can’t even figure out how to get its own Internet video stream to work. Is it irony? Or just sadly predictable?
UPDATE: Stream is live again! But still stuttering.
