I subscribed to this alternative access on a quarterly basis but could have asked to try them for one month only if i had prefered. Their answers were quick and honest, there's been no issues as long as i'm concern and it's a shame they don't advertise this LogIn service outside the local boundaries since it's a hard-to-find service in my Province!!!
I didn't evaluate my LogIn account long enough to be able to rate them accurately but nothing is perfect in a real world so i guess 4 over 5 is reasonable. More investigation would be required but i noticed that latency is around 50 ms, quite a fair deal when i consider that their signal is going thru Québec city before it heads back to the west...

| Thank you Bicephale :) Hello Bicephale,
I would like to thank you for your honest review. It's always nice to hear that people enjoy our service even our neighbours in Quebec .
Have a great day.

| Update Hi Matt,
I wish i could have done justice to VelCom, actually; i've been having line issues lately but see my tests:

Latency seems nice considering the circumstances, not to mention that my VelCom access is capable of better speeds than some results appear to suggest. I'm just hoping that the reader will consider the intermittent noise issues i'm facing and not only the raw numbers.
Salutations, ;-D

| Re: Update Hello Bicephale,
I've been following your thread in the Canadian Broadband section. We have quite a large user base in both Montreal city and Quebec and many people are happy with both the speeds and routing.
I hope you're off to a wonderful week.
Regards,
Matthew  | |
