Rural Broadband Simulator Extension

The FCC recently filed a \"notice of proposed rulemaking\" to include mobile broadband in the broadband standard, increasing the amount of rural area served but effectively lowering the minimum broadband speed to 10 Mbps/1 Mbps from its original 25 Mbps/3 Mbps. To demonstrate the possible impact of allowing mobile broadband to serve as \"adequate broadband,\" this extension will help simulate a slow (rural) internet connection.
