Apparent wide-spread outages...

WOW.

So, I guess we know that Rogers got their copy of CNOC's letter to CRTC enforcement!

Seems like it's not just us on Start having the issues. Rogers clients as far as Bowmaville, I'm in Scarborough, is having issues too. My buddy on Rogers in Bowmanville said his entire building went out because of the "new modems" according to Rogers. Their speed boost is causing them more headaches than they thought I guess. The transition to the new speeds aren't going too well for them I guess. I just hope we don't have to buy new modems again because Rogers is giving out new modems to get the new speeds according to Rogers.

Looks like it didn't all come back at once. Mine JUST came back, since you posted this, in Ottawa. No power cycle required.

Down in Ottawa since 2 PM ish. Frustrated because I couldn't get internet despite power cycling cable modem & router.

Called Start a short while ago, then the line went back on about 2 minutes afterwards while speaking on the phone with support tech.

It's OK now:

ping: 42 ms
Down: 14.20 Mbps
Up: 0.49 Mbps

We still have some reports of pockets of areas in Brantford and Paris with issues. We've escalated it and they should have enough details, but if you want to call in and create a ticket we can submit on your behalf as well if you'd like.

(1) Subspace interference.

(2) The Dark Side of the force briefly had the upper hand.

(3) Timmies did another price hike.

(4) Mister Rogers rolled over in his grave at some of the BS going on in this industry.

(5) The GRINCH tried to steal the Internet this year - sequel book and movie R 2 B released soon.

Are you testing it based on your speedtests? If so, can you do speedtests on different servers?

yep, i tried different servers, same output.

It never goes higher then 32mbit.

I always get full speeds, but, for some reason speed boost doesn't work for me.

I just tested, and I'm getting 24Mbps on a 18Mbps connection, so I definitely still have speedboost on Start.

damir:

Can't remember exactly, but didn't you get the Asus RT-N66U recently, and install Tomato on it ? If so, it's possible that you enabled Incoming QOS. If you set it to something like 31 or 32 mbps, you won't get anything higher than that, including Speedboost.
