I've still to recover from the hemorrhaging disconnects that I felt with their first WAVE high speed internet. I'm still with Rogers for the phone just because I struck gold with the plan and I'm not gonna give it away. Other than that, 50Mbps is nothing from 100Mbps and I got used to that when I was in Japan. Geez we're slow! It sounds like you actually like Rogers there…

So Rogers is not unique just very pricey. $150/month and $200 for the modem. Give me a break! Videotron charges $89.95/month without a subscription or $79.95/month with a 12 month subscription. Either way, the modem is including at no extra charge. Michael Umm…Videotron has had a 50Mbps service for well over a year now.

Is a link is missing? I don't use P2P. In addition to the deep-packet inspection currently being used by Rogers, their throttling of encrypted traffic is wholly unacceptable. VPN traffic is encrypted. Skype is encrypted. Remote desktop/client tools are encrypted. Their throttling directly affects QoS on time-sensitive data, which makes using these tools less than optimal. Hopefully the Bell service uses more effective, less invasive network traffic management. “Give this thread…” ? Is a link is missing?

Once again Bell pails in comparison, you can find the info at the following url: http://www.bell.ca/shopping/internet.portal?_nfpb=true&_windowLabel=PrsShpInt_NewAccess_internetBrowse_portlet&PrsShpInt_NewAccess_internetBrowse_portlet_actionOverride=%2Fportlets%2Fpersonal%2Finternet%2Fbrowse%2FgetDetailPage&_pageLabel=PrsShpInt_NewAccess Personally I am with Bell (Montréal) and have a really good deal, sorry. But it might not take much if I was offered a really cool 50 Mbps from someone else to switch. For now I cannot really complain too much especially when others just outside large cities are still forced to use dial up. Hawkesbury, ON finally has HS!!

Makes Bell more trustworthy in a weird way. Well, this site anyway. Kudos. I’m impressed that you’re running this article about Rogers and allowing negative comments about Bell service.
