| thanks for posting this comment:
"Original ADSL service was received a long time ago. (2000?) (Used to be on dial-up with Uniserve before.) As I recall there were no problems at the time. It took quite a while between signing up and actually getting service. This was not so bad since ADSL was just being deployed in the area. Price was around $45.00 per month for 1500 down and 512 up. A D-Link modem was supplied with no firewall or router features. Download speeds were around 165 kb/s."
that sounds exactly like my first hook up with Telus as far as dates, prices, and speeds. I joined around 2000 as well and now I'm sure of the year because of what you posted (also was just rolled out in my town, same $45/month for 1500down/512up but I had the 3Com HomeConnect and was coming from AT&T dialup. Hell I still have the original booklet that the installer brought over! |
