Re: Well, now I cant get my work emails...

I just logged onto my VPN at work and I cannot use Lotus notes at all as my emails are not downloading. The replication process has slowed to such a crawl that I cannot even get any work done from home anymore.

This is completely unacceptable.
What type of VPN?

According to Bell, VPN disruption will not be a problem for business users because no business user would ever want to access their work network after hours.

Upgrading to PPPoE business DSL won't help.

Upgrading to $100/month non-PPPoE DSL *might* help but we don't know yet.

Switching to Rogers won't help as they're doing the same thing.

Basically you can't access your work VPN anymore unless their is legal or political intervention to bring Bell to heel. There is nothing Teksavvy can do about it technically and there is no other ISP you can switch to. You're screwed.

You should tell Industry Canada and the CRTC what you think about that. You should ask your company to tell IC and the CRTC what they think about it, too.

Tack

Which is of course complete nonsense. In fact the only time I want to access work through VPN is after hours, because I would be on-call. If it's during business hours I'm in the office.
