| [Cable] Need faster upload!!! Not entirely Teksavvys fault but this is way to ridiculous. Having 1mbps of upload speed on cable in 2013 is like not having access to clean drinking water. I don't have access to anything other than cable so this is my only option. The CRTC should treat this like a national crisis!
Yep first world problems at its finest. |
|
| Move to Korea, Japan, Hong Kong, or even Western Canada. Only in Ontario do we get shafted like this.
I'm gonna leave for Start, probably. I want that faster upload! |

How about not Teksavvy's fault at all. Rogers is trying to ignore CRTC rules which stated they had to speedmatch.

If Teksavvy chose not to upgrade the IPOI and prep for switching over to APOI, there wouldn't be such a problem. Yes there are costs and it's hella expensive as I've heard that many times, but you have to do the switch sooner or later. The more you delay, the more expensive it'll get.
You need to think long-term. Not short-term. |

Best plan Start has for me is 32/1 - even though I can get 150/10 from Rogers.
//Edit: Whoa - I checked this 3 days ago and thats the best they had available for my area code. Now they're reporting I can get 45/4/350 GB - $59.95/month with a free service transfer.
Teksavvy, still sticking with you, but you got some major competition there. CRTC better approve the new rates... |

since you seem to know a bit about it, how is it start can offer the higher speed by TSI cannot? I haven't checked start's page but if what's said below is true 20\2 package, it's more then TSI offer's, which would make it slightly TSI. |

Start is on the aggregate POI. Teksavvy is not. |

Start is on the Aggregated POI architecture, while Teksavvy is not. Rogers only allows the new speed packages to the ISPs on the Aggregated POI architecture. |

Start is on the Aggregated POI architecture, while Teksavvy is not. Rogers only allows the new speed packages to the ISPs on the Aggregated POI architecture. The problem is that Rogers is treating these like these new packages, and can charge for package changes, and grandfather people at the slower speeds. We all know these are free upgrades and should have automatically been provided.
A plan has already been put together with Rogers to switch to aggregated. There were contractual obligations with the current POIs that had to be resolved.

And none of which is TSI's previous issues not moving to aggregated earlier? The POI's i do not know much about but i can't see how this is only a Rogers issue so i'm looking to see for answers there.
Appreciate the 3 of you honestly answering without an ignorant response to an honest question. |

Quick question while we're on the subject of Start - do they have a max overage limit or is it always $0.5/GB over plan limit?
Thanks! |

Not financially sound to do so at that time.

Nah not true - Bazinga?  |

I totally agree. I got to upload some to youtube take 3 hours if 1080p. Why can`t we control our downloads and upload and why can`t you offer example 15 mbps downloads and 15 mbps upload. Not exactly all Teksavvys fault. |

Start does not have a max overage. |

And that's a deal-breaker for me. What if something on my network gets stuck in a download loop - I don't want that to bankrupt me. Sorry, but that's scary! |

I couldn't disagree more OP.
Not having clean drinking water > your problem with upload. |
