Re: [DSL] Good News - DSL upgrades

All DSL services have virtually the same tariff price now, so speed tiers like 16/7 make sense in that they cost TekSavvy less in UBB and transit than 25/7... We have 16/7 from TekSavvy but our price is out of date (was set during the interim tariffs and hasn't been updated) and so I'm wondering what's going to happen to that.

EDIT: On a personal level, I'd rather be on cable, but Videotron shows no evidence that they're going to give us any kind of decent upstream any time soon.

Those on a 16Mbps profile will be grandfathered.

Cheers,

I'm not sure our grandfathered price is all that attractive. We're paying two bucks less than 25/10, and we're getting 16/7. If we get grandfathered and we don't get the upstream upgrade from 7 meg to 10 meg, what was a not-so-great deal before becomes a terrible deal now...

Could you qualify if our line supports 15/10 or 25/10? Should I PM you the CID/OID?

Also, I have not received any automated invoices for that account without manual intervention since January. Getting February required a ticket be filed, and then I called to complain in June and they manually sent March through May in a single ARDINVO PDF. I never got any invoice for June, July, or August. These are the invoices being sent to equipment@otakuthon.com, not my personal account (I get those invoices fine)

I'll try to verify with our IT department if the spam filter is eating them.

Hi there,

The 25/10 mpbs isn't the same as the 16 mpbs. That profile required a 8$ more for the modem.

It doesn't really matter for me 16 or 15 mpbs, my area can only sync me at 16, which in turn I get 14ish with overhead, so technically, I get 15...

Changes went into effect from 12/1 to 15/1. This is fantastic and unexpected, thanks!

Will business customers on 25/7 also get bumped to 25/10?

I also would like to know that, I would LOVE that!

Also when are we going to see any Cable upload speeds beyond 1Mb?

Profile on August 23 upgraded

Profile on August 24th. Upstream downgraded from 1 Mb/Sec to 797 Kb/Sec

Speedtest After Profile Change
 

Speedtest Before Profile Change
 
Interesting, it appears that Bell upgraded my profile to 15 Mb/Sec from 12 Mb/Sec along with the upstream speed to 1 Mb/Sec. However, the very next day the upstream was dropped back to 797 Kb/Sec. Odd to say the least.

The other odd thing is that my actual speed test after the profile upgrade is actually slower than before the profile upgrade as shown.

Weird. And yes, I have tried resetting the router several times with the same results.

Past couple days (assuming since the upgrades started taking place) my line speed has been bouncing around from 9mb to 20mb. Is this stability expected and will it normalize? In the northeast end of st catharines with the 12/1 package which is now 10-20/1 lol.

Modem puts my line speed at 17980 Kbps/797 Kbps
Attainable Line Rate 24812 Kbps/1042 Kbps

Andre,

When will Quebec customers get the option of 15/10 (as offered by Bell) instead of the current 15/1 Teksavvy is offering? Many of us are not eligible for 25/10 but all the other profiles are capped at 1MBit which is insufficient. Please provide *some* sort of increase. Maybe something along the lines of 15/4.

That is a good question. For now, we are concentrating efforts on the upgrades mentioned above, we will then be looking at re-vamping our offerings.

Cheers,

It's very rare that you qualify for 15/10 but not 25/10... Almost unheard of, although you do see the rare person who gets 25/10 but can't get the full upstream sync or something, and they might be able to do 15/10...

Well, according to Bell's website this is the case for me. According to Teksavvy employees as of a few months ago I only qualify for 15/1 under their service offering.
