This document discusses strategies for solving the economical equation of broadband networks. It advocates a technology mix of both mobile and fixed networks to provide connectivity. Broadband is described as an end-to-end solution, with infrastructure being only half of the equation. Key factors for success include governments creating an investment-friendly environment, using a mix of technologies appropriate for population densities, and taking an open collaboration approach.
