"Very inexpensive, High speed DSL, No bandwidth limit, Cool Extra features."
"Bell throttles there lines at certain times of the day."
"100% recommend"

    I've been with Acanac for a month. It took about 5 days for bell to connect my dry loop, used my own modem. Tweaked a few setting on my router and computer, and have been enjoying unlimited high-speed DSL ever since.

    My speeds on Acanac's speed test are on average 4200 down and 600 up. My speed tests here are a bit slower because I'm further from the servers. My connection has not dropped once in a month of use and that's with my computer sometimes running 24 hrs a day. I like the extra features, 100 GB online storage, online computer, and tunneler. I have tried them all and that brings me to my one and only problem.

    Bell throttles their lines at certain time of the day. The tunneler services are supposed to beat this problem, but I have not had very good results using it. My speed is pretty much the same or slower. This is not where my review goes sour, after this I'm heading to Acanac forums to see if I can find a solution. Oh, did I mention the very useful Acanac forums.

    I definitely feel that this is one of the best values out there for any service. I recommend this service to anyone with the exception of the computer illiterate. If you're not so tech savvy then cable is a bit easier to get along with.
