In theory, routers could be electronically hooked up to serve as regional networks.
A regional network might span all the way from Wilmington, Delaware to Hartford, Connecticut.
In much of the day, the regional network might span I-95 from Homestead, Florida to Bangor, Maine using routers or cell phone Wi-Fi in cars.
E-mail providers and merchants like Amazon might create regional network portals.
ISP and cell phone bills might go the way of the dinosaurs.
That’s already the way it works, with a 40gb backbone.
