Re: Not going to last...

Rogers doesn't throttle their wholesalers, and so doesn't have to worry about anticompetition claims. Bell does.

Bell currently throttles PPPoE business customers of both themselves and wholesalers. They can do this because they equally throttle both. While they CAN identify their own business customers based on the different logon domain, they can't identify a wholesaler's business customer like that.

As such, it's extremely unlikely that they'd try to apply different throttling to business customers (who need VPNs) than to residential customers.

Then again, rogers throttles all the encrypted traffic, so they may do the same
