| Rogers Not all of the cable industry is..
Rogers here in Canada is still keeping with SpeedBoost. They like their customers seeing the right speeds (even for a few seconds) when their network is massively congested because they're too bloody cheap to do upgrades.

Yeah. As much as I want to avoid defending Rogers, their network is pretty solid in most (if not all) areas and they are most certainly not sitting still. They've done quite a few upgrades in the last little while. In my area I can easily maintain my plans speed (bursting for about 25MB by 60Mbps or so).
Congestion would imply that SpeedBoost wouldn't even activate (since it can only use available bandwidth). |

| Are you kidding me? If Rogers ever opened their wallet moths would fly out of it. |
