said by Blago:Listen guys, we all hate Bell for throttling their broadband (and Rogers for doing it way before Bell), there's no dispute there.
But the simple fact of the matter is that it's their equipment and they can do whatever the hell they want with it. I don't like it, I hate it, but I understand it. Teksavvy simply rents that equipment. It's as simple as that. Unlike Primus and Sprint who spent the time and money to install their own equipment in Bell's COs and can do whatever they please with it.
Some guy said that Bell hasn't upgraded the network in 10 years? HAHA Bell is consistently installing stingers in all of the phone boxes around the city. That's how they can now offer 16Mbit/s connections to people, it's pretty simple.
Personally, I hope that the CRTC rules in favour of the wholesalers so that they can sell unthrottled DSL to customers, but I don't think it's going to happen as long as they are on Bell's equipment.
Listen guy, it's a GAS service. There are laws in this country. I own my house, does that mean I can do whatever I want with it. Can I burn it to the ground? Can I turn it into a restaurant or a private jail? Bell owns the equipment. So what? It's a way more complicated world than "I own it, I can do what I want with it".
