| Two questions 1. What's the upload speed? 2. What's the cap?
Hopefully the cap is at least 500GB for paying that price per month. Of course Novus could set uploads at 10 Mbps and call it a day, charging more for a 200 Mbps symmetric (!!!!!!) SoHo tier, but hopefully they'll be cool and give a decent amount of upload speed on the $280 package.
The cool thing is that Shaw will have to upgrade their infrastructure *again* (8-channel bonding on DOCSIS 3) to compete with Novus on a speed basis. They might do that, or they might be forced to compete on caps (which Novus can raise as needed in all likelihood) or price.Sounds like a win to me for those few customers that can get Novus, or are beneficiaries of Shaw's upgrades.
Because nobody likes paying $150 per month for a mere 5 Mbps up and a 400GB cap. |
