It also said I was getting internet from Cogent. I tried getting American Netflix just for fun and I got way farther along the registration process than I ever did with Cogeco. Can anyone verify this? routing is through cogent, and *soem geoip sites use various locations but very few sites (we want an american ip for) will see us as an american ip

Can anyone verify this? It could be just the particular netblock you were assigned. I wouldn't think much of it.

DoctorT join:2011-07-23 St Catharines, ON	reply to FiagaraNalls Hmm.. Sounds great. Doesn't iKtel cap the data at 125/200GB though (14 and 16 mbps)? But it's only $12 extra for unlimited ;P

dan991199 join:2007-10-01 St Catharines, ON	reply to DoctorT said by DoctorT: Hmm.. That's weird. Their online availability tool says that it should be available in my area (50 Mbps). But one thing I don't understand is that the DCM425 modem is also supposedly used for the 50/1.5 tier. I read it's spec and apparently it only goes up to 36 Mbps. How's your internet? Does it slow down during peak hours or anything like that? haven't had any slowdown yet. in north St. Catharines. been with Iktel for almost a month and just over a TB.

dan991199 join:2007-10-01 St Catharines, ON	reply to DoctorT i don't think its actually available anywhere in the area iktel currently services, i could be wrong. but when i inquired Alan from iktel thought it was already in St. Catharines but later found out it wasn't available yet. i have their 16Mbit package and i'm thrilled with it. i have a friend on here with the 14Mbit package and i know hes just as happy.

DoctorT @cgocable.net	reply to FiagaraNalls Hey, Does anyone know if their 50 mbps cable internet is any good? I asked iKtel and they say its a 50/1.5 stream with no cap. I'm planning on later completely ditching cogeco (standard 14 Mbps internet and their overpriced TV) for some online TV. Their internet cap is driving me crazy! 60 gigs??!! What the hell Cogeco??

It's been pretty solid since I got that all sorted out. If something was going on I'm sure I would have heard about it as I typically get a phone call the moment something is out of order.

smallj53 join:2002-08-25 Niagara Falls, ON Reviews: ·ELECTRONICBOX ·Bell Sympatico	reply to AwolRJ Hello everyone, I was just hooked up today and I'm running Cogeco and Iktel at the same time so comparisons will be made. So far I would say that Iktel is still a good choice but it looks like there are more than just a few subscribers for the available bandwidth. I also have been experiencing disconnects and short service "hiccups" of the kind I don't usually get with Cogeco. See the following: Anyway it should be interesting seeing how things go as Iktel expands. Could other Iktel subscribers confirm these results because it just might be my setup that is causing the problem?
