said by CanerisErik:Speaking of that, if I were Bell, instead of doing this, I would just sue Rogers for destruction of Bell property. Rogers and other cableco techs are trained to destroy/hamper your ability to go back to copper-based services when they install RHPc or other cable VoIP. For example, they will "accidentally" cut buried drops too close to the ground, etc. except there is nothing accidental about it and they shouldn't have their dirty little red paws in someone else's OSP to begin with. It's methodical and intentional.
It's completely ridiculous and unfortunate that it has to affect ISPs too, for example, where someone orders dry DSL and it's impossible to reconnect the ISW easily.
This doesn't surprise me at all from the cable co's. I've been hearing about stuff like this both here and in the US for a few years now.
