So the problem is that they need to build a 100+ gig network between the APOI head end and our POP at 151 Front.

So what's the due date for that? 2015??

In the next few months, so that TSI can go Agg.

Remember Dupont?
Target dates didn't mean a damn there.

Hum, this isn't rocket science.. we've been planning this with them. I dont see why it wouldn't go smoothly.

Hehehe... You of all people should not take that at face value... I can't count how many times Rogers has missed deadlines for POI upgrades.

But Rogers treats it as if it was, and their legal/marketing types will undoubtedly throw a few potholes in your path at the last minute.

Marc,

I know it's a lot to ask for a scheduled right now, but do you think we could get an approximate list in the next week or two? Something along the line of:

Priority 1 POI's (1-3 months)
bla
bla
bla

Priority 2 POI's (3-6 months)
bla
bla
bla

Priority 3 POI's (6 months+)
bla
bla
bla

I don't know if it will make sens from a business stand point (if you find out your in a low priority POI then you'd be more likely to switch) but I know it would make a lot of us feel better about waiting.

Thanks,
David

More like "Behind every upgrade there is...

Dear Marc,

I am giving you till December to make the switch to higher speeds. If you don't do that by then I will be switching to Start

Thanks

being the fact they have to be all switched by NOVEMBER, or be cut off, I doubt you will have to wait that long.

I imagine if Rogers does miss deadlines on this, they'll have to extend the cut off date. Cut off is November 15, 2013

You need to understand what I have witnessed...

When all the prior problems existed, when we order gig links from them, they were treating those links the same as any other LAN customer... i.e. usually not the entire pipe gets used.

Once they finally understand that we were going to use every inch of that pipe on every single link.. it meant the they need to plan their network upgrades completely different.

Now that we are all on the same page, they have been relatively timely with their upgrades.

i.e. since then, I have not seen any indication that they dont fully understand what its going to take.

I have personally met with them and we will meet again. The rest of my team has been in daily communication with them...

Will the switch to AGG require the elimination of all Tek Docsis 2 modem tiers/users? Rogers DOES require D3 ONLY for the new higher down/up tiers.

I would say anything but lite (6mb) cable will require D3 modems. D2 modems based on how rogers has their network built, just can't keep up.

So the short answer is No. The D2 modems will continue to work. But in some cases, to get the higher speeds, it will require a D3 modem.

I'll try to get a map of what speeds will require what modem.

I believe to get the faster speeds you'll need D3. If your happy with your current speeds, the D2 will probably be ok.

How do I know if im elidgible for the 45/7 package that has been talked about in this thread? Any date when this should be availible from TSI approx this package is veryyy good. With 1mb upload my brother cant even use skype or teamviewer without maxing the upstream then lags my downstream to the point i start to freeze on fps games..

You earlier said march-april will be when TekSavvy goes AGG? Just asking again so I know i understood that right, that would give everyone 35/3 who are on 28/1? Sorry I am new and I don't understand everything completely yet...

So I guess this means I'll be getting upload speeds from this century sometime later this year then?

I would say anything but lite (6mb) cable will require D3 modems. D2 modems based on how rogers has their network built, just can't keep up.

It isn't really related to how their network is built. However, Rogers has issued a letter stating that as of April (April 1st?) D2 will only be allowed on 6mbit. All existing customers will be grandfathered of course.

Then again, reading those letters suggests that Rogers doesn't want to sell Teksavvy any new 18mbit or 28mbit accounts after April 16th:
»Re: Update on matching Rogers new speeds?

I have (edit: I have NOT) read the decision today, but reading between the lines it seems like the CRTC overruled that bit of stupidity, but....
