WAIT AND SEE: AT & T seeks better clarity on Net Neutrality before it can restart fibre investments

AT&T Inc sought to clarify to US regulators its plans to pause investments in high-speed Internet connections until "net neutrality" rules are settled, saying in a letter that the plans related to new and not existing commitments. 

The Federal Communications Commission earlier this month pressed the company to explain its plans to stop investing in high-speed Internet connections in 100 cities until the agency sorts out new "net neutrality" rules for how Internet service providers manage web traffic on their networks.
