[DSL] new business connectionAfter 3 years of fighting with management, I finally recieved the OK to switch our 10 year old internet connection from ICA to Teksavvy. Now since this is on my head, and today is the day everything should be switched over, I am wondering when is the average time That the dsl actually starts working. Seeing its,a business and all our transactions are processed online we cant be down to long. FYI we are using the speedtouch modem only supplied purchased from teksavvy. |

Technically, it can be up to Midnight. As long as you have a DSL sync & a Login, you should be able to connect. |

Thats my fear, the DSL light has yet to flash, just the ethernet one is. |

All signs are pointing for today!
Two techs are required for this install.
1) Bell Tech (12pm-5pm) he is making sure frame/co work is completed. You may not even see this guy
2) Telecon Tech (8am-9pm) he is the one coming on prem to do the work
I had a second pair of eyes on this and nothing is pointing that it wont happen for today.
Cheers,
Andre |

Good morning Unfortunately no, as we have no contact with the Telecon technicians. Once they're dispatched to the field, even Bell has no contact with them either. We could do the option of "Due date +1" which essentially would put your installation date for the second tech on Monday (slight possibility of Tuesday) Personally I'd suggest if it's possible, to leave the appointment for today. Let me know, and if need be I can have it rescheduled for you. Thanks! |

Thank you guys for the quick response too. Its refreshing after what we had to put up with. |

I switched our corporate internet connection from ICA to TSI a couple of years ago as well. Once it's setup I'm sure you'll be a lot happier. |

The problem I am facing is having someone who hates any form of change go on and on about how the internet is down, but getting just over 1.5 mbps for 10 years was acceptable. |

Hi eweazel,
There is a slight possibility that Bell will be finishing work by midnight...
I am asking someone in Escalations to take a look and contact Bell.
Thanks,
Andre |

We got no answer from the queue... I just fired off an email to Escalation level 4, 5 & 6... Product Manager, Associate Director and Director to see what can be done. Once again, there is a possibility there the work is done automatically, but because its a business, I don't want it to impact you guys negatively so I am not taking a chance! Thanks, Andre |

It may be worth while doing a little troubleshooting. I just called your cell and left you my number... Give me a call if you can or call into support and lets try some TS if possible.
Thanks, and I apologize for all of this!

Ok. The scoop since we last spoke over the phone! I got in touch with one of the Directors at Bell. They escalated to a Fieldwork Senior Manager which had a local CO Dispatch Manager call me. Spoke to him... It was quite pleasant! He is saying that CO work was completed as of 7:34am today but he is sending another tech out tonight to double-check the work. He told me that its either CO or on the prem. Once you get in tomorrow, if we cant fix it by troubleshooting, I will call the local manager as per his request and he will send someone out that day to fix things on the prem Sorry it took so long but it seems that this escalation is now on track! Cheers, Andre |

Just remember who treats you right when suggesting ISPs to your friends and family It was my pleasure! |

So here is the 411. Tech went to the CO last night and the tech originally had placed you on a FTTn port and never activated it. The tech last night put you on a regular port as he could not activate the other higher one just yet, thus slow Internet this morning. I got in touch with the dispatch manager and about 15 minutes ago, they put you back on the faster port an activated it, thus... Amazing Internet!
Thanks for being so patient with us ! |

Thanks again for some of the best support. FYI: The bell tech who just fixed it, went to one of my employees to warn them that he would have to charge us more for our higher speed, Since going with a third party it should be slower . |
