Gatineau Internet Service Providers

KINgGh0sT join:2007-09-26	reply to videotron Re: Gatineau Internet Service Providers I'd go with Videotron if they weren't so expensive. I've heard their service is decent, but they are just way to expensive. Velcom is working quite well for me.

I've sent you an email with your sync rate results. All of our new customers are syncing in with the full 6016/800 profile. Huh? Hehehe... I don't think so. It's syncing whatever Bell has as a default.... sometimes, 3Meg, sometimes 5Meg and sometimes 6Meg by mistake. -- TSI Rocky - TekSavvy Solutions Inc.

Too bad my line isn't performing well... I'm stuck at 4 meg interleaved.

Bell is the one deciding what profile limit should the ISP have and for residential, it's 5 meg. And the lucky ones who have a profile more than 5 meg are, well, lucky , Bell made a mistake and changed their profile. So Bell is the one controlling the profiles.

VelcomMatt Premium join:2006-01-26 Brampton, ON	reply to KINgGh0sT Hello KINgGh0sT, Would you be able to private message me your Velcom login ID so I can pull up your account profile in our system ASAP and see which Band Rate you fall under. Please note that for all DSL circuits in Ontario & Quebec the lines are provisioned by Bell and if you're far from the CO or equipment this will play a role in what Band Rate you are. Kind Regards, Matthew

KINgGh0sT @dcompareprices.com	reply to KINgGh0sT Velcom said they will get back to me, I have an open ticket, as I just got access today, I tried to ask what my Band Rate is, and why I am getting 3mbit access, when I should get 5mbits.

R0CKY TSI Rocky Premium,VIP join:2005-05-19 Chatham, ON	reply to Guspaz I'm think we should find out what band rate we're talking about here.... If Band A or B, most of these discussions are moot. -- TSI Rocky - TekSavvy Solutions Inc.

Guspaz Guspaz Premium,MVM join:2001-11-05 Montreal, QC ·Colbanet	reply to gi1010 Secondary login with TekSavvy. My point was that you can get a TekSavvy connection and used Acanac for the physical connection to save money on Acanac's flatrate bandrate and discounted monthly price. It's exactly the same as actually having TekSavvy, except you'd have to go through Acanac to deal with Bell issues.

gi1010 join:2006-09-22 Montreal, QC	reply to Guspaz said by Guspaz : It may also be worth noting that since Acanac is very cheap for the first year of service, if you're in a high band rate, Acanac plus a TekSavvy login would be far cheaper than TekSavvy itself (as in, $30 + $25 = $55 as compared to $19 + $8 + $10 = $37), and you'd have the benefits of TekSavvy's more reliable service. The downside would be you'd still have to deal with Acanac for line issues. If you assume it's only worth doing this with at least a $5 difference in price, then it'd make sense if you're band E, F, or G. If you're in bands A, B, C, or D, then I'd say it's not worth it. For Acanac calculation, what is the $10 fee you included in the calculation. As far as I know, it should be $19 + $8 = $27 for DryDSL and you have to deposit $50 for the DSL modem... you can always get back/don't pay this money when you return the modem or you have your own modem.

gi1010 join:2006-09-22 Montreal, QC	reply to KINgGh0sT For DryDSL better check which Band rate you have to pay (where you located). »www.teksavvy.com/busdrydsl.htm If it is too expensive like Band G - $25.10/month, then better find ISPs which give you cheap DryDSL rate. For example, Bell Sympatico... $0 for DryLoop Acanac... always $8 no matter which band you have

Guspaz Guspaz Premium,MVM join:2001-11-05 Montreal, QC	reply to KINgGh0sT It isn't an overestimate. Bell won't even schedule an activation for a dry loop for 5 or more business days. That'll be the same no matter what DSL ISP you sign up with since they all go through Bell.

KINgGh0sT @carleton.ca	reply to KINgGh0sT So Teksavvy and Velcom are pretty much the same ratings and exact same price, so I'm gonna go with whomever answers their phone first. Hopefully the 5-10 days for install is an overestimate

KINgGh0sT @carleton.ca	reply to Scoop I used CIA before, sure you couldnt get ahold of anyone, but their service was pretty decent. Dry DSL is going to be expensive Oricom has a CAP.. Le Sigh
