This is too easy.
When I have fibre running down my street, and I can get 100Mps uncapped for less than $50, from a variety of providers (none of which are beholden to any owner of infrastructure), then it will be obvious to everyone that we've succeeded.
Access, speed, price, volume, industry reform - those are the areas of concern, fix those and everything else will sort itself out.
When it comes to the internet, the network is everything - businesses aren't going to invest in internet presence if they, and their customers, are restricted by it. Why bother making rich applications if the communication to the client is like ramming a camel through the eye of a needle.
If you want people on the internet - then make it bigger, faster and cheaper. Everyone owns a mobile phone - think about why that is - the paradigm is the same.
