Re: Need Help Picking ISP Although Bell is throttling all DSL ISPs that do not have their own equipment, both Teksavvy and Velcom can be used with MLPPP to avoid the throttling.
(if you didn't want to switch just to try how it works, grab a $10 login from Velcom for a month and swap it for your Bell login info to give MLPPP a try)
Under normal conditions MLPPP would be used to bond two lines, but applied to a single line it can avoid the throttling. You'll need a WRT54GL router and firmware from fixppp.org (any PPPOE DSL modem, including the one you currently have now from Bell provided they let you keep it, will do)
I would reccomend Teksavvy's Premium service if you do not do more than 200GB regularly, and may occasionally do 300GB (it's what I've got).
If you go beyond that, Unlimited from Velcom is the next best pricing. |
