Re: [DSL] NEW RATES - Telus The one that is being used right now is the Zyxel VSG1432. The one from Teksavvy comes with the stock firmware from the vendor so it is one click away from being bridged. As far as I have seen the modem only version is only about $10 cheaper if you can find it. |

I know it is available from Telus, did the pricing not come down from Telus yet?
i'll try to poke around for it. I'll add it if I find it.

Marc, any chance you guys can do an install promotion on west DSL or is that something you were only able to negotiate with Bell?

Any insight on the 50mbps service? |

Also when will the new rates take effect? Will it be for April? |

I'm waiting to switch back if/when TSI offers the 50Mbps DSL. |

kudos:14 | I did hear back. We do have access to the 50 meg tier. The rates are not "final" so I'll see what I can do.

What's all this talk of 50 Mbps on Telus? I don't see that package on telus.com.

| It is on there just not advertised, you have to qualify for it then it is selectable. |

Waiting to hear about the 50mbps |
|
| Considering how expensive the cable 50 Mbps plan is, I doubt its worth waiting to hear about.
$85 for 50 Mbps/300 GB when you can get 400 GB through Telus or Shaw for less. |

Hey Marc,
Already posted in the Shaw thread, but just in case it doesn't become available soon, thought I'd ask my questions here too.
ADSL Modems that I have:
-Dlink DVA-G3810BN/TL
-3Com HomeConnect (not sure on model number Telus sticker covers it up, but it's a very old model ~2001)
-Dlink DSL-300G
Would any of the modems I have work with your service? My postal code is T5B 2K7, in Edmonton, how much would the dry loop cost per month? What would the install cost be for the service and the dry loop?
Thanks! |

So, I had a look and it doesn't look very good for the 50mbit. The rate is the interim one and at that speed.. I'd be in the $85/mth for 300 gig... thinking it's not worth even listing. maybe once the rate is revised to be more in line with the others... it might make more sense then.

| Thanks for the update Marc, I just checked Telus' website and they are charging $80/month for the 50Mb package, is there a date for the final rate revision? If we still wanted to order it would it be available and just not advertised? Reason I ask is I really want the extra upload and to do the same with MLPPP will be about $200.

right now I'm thinking it would be:
50 mbps
300 Gigs - $84.99
Unlimited - $99.99
if you think it's worth throwing up there.. I can do that.

Hi Mixam,
Happy to see you are interested in our DSL service. 
To answer your questions, any DSL modems will work with our service as long as that modem is not locked to another service provider (meaning that it is purchased and not a previous rental from another provider).
For the DRY-LOOP fee, the Edmonton area qualifies as band rate A, which is $7,04. If you want, you can post in the direct forum » TekSavvy Direct with your full address and we can qualify you to ensure service is available and up to what speeds you qualify for.
If you have any other questions please feel free to ask.
Cheers,
TSI Jonathan
