Last Mile IssueThe Last Mile issue refers to the connection between the user and the ISP, which is typically the slowest aspect of the internet access. As with a chain, the access is governed by the weakest link, thus the slow connection impacts the entire web browsing experience. This issue evolved due to the lack of competition in the telecom industry, until very recently. Therefore technology innovation was not as rapid (read very slow) compared to other innovations governed by Moore's Law. Users (in the U.S.) typically connect from home with a 56K modem. Cable modems and DSL technologies are beginning to become more widely adopted. Designers have to design for the web assuming users have a "slow" connection!Similar MatchesWhen issued (WI)When issued (WI)Refers to a transaction made conditionally, because a security, although authorized, has not yet been issued.
