 | ISP's that don't throttle and have their own equipment. LIST So I'm trying to make a list of the Ontario and Quebec ISP's that have their own equipment and don't throttle.
So far I only see the following. Can anyone add to it or add area's served etc.
www.wightman.ca, Ontario Mount Forest Harriston Listowel Palmerston ====================================
Primus, Ontario, (QC?) Area's with their own equipment: ====================================
Colba, Quebec. Area's: ADSL2+ Atwater area? ====================================
Peterborough, ON, ISP (don't remember the name of the ISP) ADSL2+ ====================================
VDN (A bell company), Quebec 10-meg fiber. ADSL2+? Area's: Ville Marie Area.
Feel free to add to this. Should videotron be added since they don't throttle or have a forced throttle?
I'm not looking for anyones comment on these companies or their experience. So leave that crap out.

Will leave it undecided for now.

ADSL2+ in Peterborough (Host only, remote is Bell wholesale)

 pstewartPremium,VIP join:2005-10-12 Peterborough, ON kudos:1 | Nexicom also offers ADSL2+ in Millbrook, Cavan, and Keene areas on both host and remote.
Are you looking for fixed broadband wireless information as well that is unthrottled or focusing only on ADSL? |

 | reply to pstewart no, not just adsl.
I'm not looking for ISP's that have a throttle work-around either. We already know the ISP's who have a throttle work-around.
This also gives some insight to some lesser known ISP's who do have their own equipment in place and are not affected by the likes of the Bell or Rogers throttle. Like nexicom, wightman etc. |

You won't get people taking you as seriously if you aren't registered because folks wonder who you really are or what you have to hide.... no offense intended. |

 pstewartPremium,VIP join:2005-10-12 Peterborough, ON kudos:1 1 edit | reply to anony me The wireless (for Nexicom) is difficult to describe. Location areas are as follows (there's other locations but our internal names won't help):
Anstruther Lake, Apsley, Belmont Lake, Bridgenorth, Buckhorn, Buckhorn Lake (Deer Bay) region, Catchacoma Area, Centre Dummer, Chandos Lake, Douro, Ennismore, Gannon's Narrows, Jack's Lake, Kasshabog Lake, Lakefield, Nephton, Pigeon Lake, Smith-Ennismore, Stoney Lake, Warsaw, Whitney, and Young's Point.
Map showing the wireless locations is at »www.nexicom.net/residential/inte···wers.pdf if that helps... |

I have never seen the need to register. I just prefer it. It's better to register if you continue to visit the site and reply to threads. A lot of useful features will be open to you such as private messaging, an internet quality monitor...
And best of all, people will respect you since you since they'll know you. |

 | ty for the info pstewart. Its appreciated.
I never knew nexicom had any wireless services that were unthrottled. So thats good to know.
I bet many people didn't know.
I see where you guys are coming from with the anon thing. But i've been posting anon for some years. I just won't change.
I know some people equate anon with troll. I have nothing to prove, hide or ask for any type of respect. Its just the way I prefer it. I don't mean any disrespect by being anon.
Thanks again for the contributions, and I hope people continue contributing. |

That sort of implies he wants to know ISPs other than Bell. |
