• Turns out, there are DHCP servers (I am looking at you TrendNet) that violate RFC2132 and recent OpenWrt's busybox udhcpc doesn't like that. Russell created a patch that works around the problem, submitted upstream to busybox and openwrt.

• City of Portland apparently has $217 million from Section 602 of the American Recovery Act of 2021, see in particular 602(c)(1)(D), which says a valid USE OF FUNDS is "to make necessary investments in water, sewer, or broadband infrastructure". It is possible Multnomah County also has funds allocated, though I haven't heard that directly.

• Congressman Clyburn has proposed a bill spending $90+ billion on broadband HR1783
