To test and measure broadband in the U.S., the FCC is giving away 10,000 free what?
.
Answer: Routers. The purpose of the test is to "provide a whole new means of looking at broadband services, levelling the playing field and making the industry more accountable and work harder for the consumer." If you'd like to participate - and claim your free router - visit http://www.testmyisp.com/. Be aware the test is set to run for three years. But you get to keep the router.
