    My Other Reviews·Bell Sympatico
    EDIT: I have switched to Bell DSL which gives me so many hours of dial up access for travelling. This beats Rogers Portable. I can get Dial up in almost every hotel I go to, no matter where I am. It's cheaper, and in most cases, yeah, it's just as fast.

    I want to switch to Bell WiMAX, but they have me on a 36 month contract.
    I chose a 1.5Mbps package = True speed on a good day: 1.5Mbps. NOT ONE DAY did my speed NOT drop to about 500kbps.

    Later upgraded to a 2Mbps package (Automatically for the same price), Same problem, some days drops down to 500kbps.
    WoW Get's about 200ms latency, then sometimes goes up to 1.2k latency or so.

    Don't buy, Try Bell WiMAX, It can't possibly be any worse then this.

    As of October 5th 2009, I have switched to Bell and have never been happier. However, I still have the Rogers services for the sake of my email addresses

    Bell and Rogers WiMAX: same thing

    Bell and Rogers use the same base station equipment and antennas for WiMAX service since they have formed a joint venture called Inukshuk that provides WiMAX infrastructure.
