pft... if you want a good service look at something like cuic.ca or igs.net. I had a 3mbit connection from igs at home for about the same as what rogers and bell charge for their 1.2mbit or whatever it is they have ... but that's only because I subscribed when they had some deal on where if you subscribe before some date you get it for cheaper but now I'm in residence and they give us a kind of crappy internet connection  it's ok some times ... but during the day during the week it kinda sucks because they cap it so that the people at the school get all the bandwidth  |
