Re: Start communications as of Feb-11-2013 2Mb DSL service

said by Davesnothere:

That 4% figure strikes me as low/fudged.

I really don't have any reason to fudge the numbers. Just telling you what the database says.

Unfortunately I don't have a way to break it down by postal codes or cities very easily, sorry.

As for the >= 15/1 question ... 49%.

YOU aren't spinning anything, but how many of us trust Bell ?

I have occasionally found errors in their lookups.

= = = = = = =

What about how many % qualify for <= 15/1 ? (anything DSL but not VDSL)

I'm sure there are a few, but not enough to be statistically relevant.

43% can get VDSL, 57% are less than that. 59% can get some sort of FTTN, 96% are more than 2Mbps.

Bell has no choice but to continue pushing out FTTN as fast as it can to try and keep market share from going to the cable companies.

And on that, Bell needs to 'get cracking' !

At least for now, Bell is pushing their 'No Usage Caps on ALL Plans' enhancement.

A site where I lookup my TV listings was running a clickable banner about that a few minutes ago, using a Greek infinity symbol.

Ah, 57% (as I figured when you first mentioned the 43% able to get 25Mb service earlier).

So, based on the same extrapolation technique by me, if 59% can get some sort of FTTN, then would 41% be how many lines which are stuck on legacy DSL ? (6Mb and under)

Correct.
