Download FCC Fixed Broadband Datasets

Description

Downloads FCC fixed broadband dataset for the specified year and month. Years prior to 2020 are available in a zipped format so the zipped file is downloaded to the working directory, opened, and then the inside csv is saved to the working directory with a common naming convention to use later on. The 2020 data sets are only available as a CSV and take much longer to download (apx. 30+ minutes). Alternatively you can download the datasets from the FCC website and use the get_colname function to get the proper column names for your data downloaded outside of R.
