[MLUG] [OT] Yet an other ISP thread.

[Michael Sweeney]

I've been with Acanac for close to a year now and am VERY happy. Speeds are great, I don't lag in MMORPG's and the torrents come in quick, I get close to 600k/sec on my downloads, so yes, DSL can do the job. 

However, it appears now that for all NEW clients, Bell caps you at 60Gigs/month, since I subscribed before that, I get to keep my 200G/month. I might be wrong about this but this is what I heard, inform yourself on the monthly limits.

It's that time of the year.  I have to renew with my ISP and I will
not.  Videotron's prices are increasing and it's just ridiculous.  I
pay about 91$ per month currently.  Mind you, this is for the simple
high speed plan at 41$.  I'm always over-charged 30$ because I always
exceed my bandwidth usage.  I can exceed it by 20GB or 100GB, it
always cost me the extra 30$.

They are now charging up to 50$ for exceeding bandwidth.  This is just
ridiculous.  So, good people on this list, I will more than likely
subscribe to TekSavvy, tell me, how is aDSL working out for you? I
switched to cable to get away from all those issues and to have a
stable link.  I am a little worry to go back to that technology.

Thank you and sorry for bringing up yet an other ISP thread to this
list.
