Re: Any hope for Toronto broadband?
I'm so fed up with this that I'm actually thinking of just cancelling my internet service, and tethering my iPhone to my laptop to check stuff occasionally, post to my blog, etc.
Sure it's only 6GB a month, and the latency is high, so there wouldn't be any downloading of movies/TV. But with the throttle as it is I can't do that anyways, so I'm paying for a connection that's crippled so badly it's effectively pointless.
Might as well just skimp on internet a bit more and save myself $45 a month.
Bah, probably won't do it. But the fact that I'm thinking about it says a lot. Broadband in Toronto is only narrowly better than internet over 3G. And only two steps above carrier pigeon. |

| Ah but Robbers will only allow you to tether till December, after which there will be an appropriate tethering fee. OR it won't count as part of your 6gb and you'll pay extra
