Re: New boxes and wiring in Québec City said by WildChild:Bell is installing new wiring and boxes in my street in Limoilou, Quebec City. FTTH? It's probably FTTH. Do you see any tags or labels nearby that say "cable optique" or "fibre node" or anything along those lines? |

| I don't see any tag. |

| I wish you're not on DSL because if you are then who can really tell
what will happen to you, especially if you're with a 3rd-party ISP!...

Six months after these arrived in my immediate neighbourhood i was
forced to switch to cable:
Bicephale, Beu bye Bell!, 2010-Jun-24
I was subscribing to VelCom, a 3rd-party ISP from Toronto... |

| Actually, DSL is "available" here but it's very crappy. The nearest CO is at 5.8KM and no remote are available. My current only choice is cable... |
|
| Euh... What do you make of that?:

672/160 sync, center of Quebec City, Bell won't help..., Bicephale, 2009-Mar-6
If this is no C.O. then i just don't know what that is supposed to be
exactly - and it seems like 26e rue is not too far away at all, IMHO!

| This is when I tested TekSavvy, both them and Bell told me that no remote were available for my area, up to 26e rue. The nearest CO is located on rue St-Réal, just on top of the stair at the intersection of rue Dorchester and De la Couronne:

Also, if I enter my address or a neighbor telephone number on Bell's website, the only Internet service offered is the basic 2Mbps service. |

| M'ouais. Ben, c'est sûr qu'en y regardant de près avec Street View on
n'en voit pas des masses de câbles entrer dans cette fameuse batisse
mais moi, quand j'ai tout fait débrancher par Bell, il n'y avait seulement
qu'un seul de mes sept MoDems pour rester connecté aux vitesses du
profil habituel et pourtant ils voulaient me vendre du Fibe 16 et en boni
m'envoyer un huitième MoDem avec ça (!) alors moi, entre la réalité et
ce qu'ils veulent bien nous raconter chez Bell, euh...
