Oh boy, this is certainly gonna get interesting, and not in a good way...

If Bell starts restricting logins to only the one ISP the user subscribes to, this is going to take away one of the biggest advantages of PPPoE DSL, and I'm not talking about the 500gb+ month hogs.

Takes away the troubleshooting advantages, multiple IP's on different computers or routers, gamers using one low latency connection for their online play, another low cost, higher latency connection for downloading, etc...

This is why we're sitting on the sidelines right now as this has been voiced and for what it's worth, it's understood, so they're trying to find a way to allow such activities that wouldn't cramp progress, but at the same time wouldn't allow the abusiveness.... Problem is, it's asking to have your cake and eat it too....

I hear ya... I'm gonna try to stay positive in the mean time.

Hear .. Hear to that.. I agree on the capping Unlimited side somethings that's in the fine print but made clear if you go over. If the Unlimited is in demand then it should be priced accordingly perhaps several ten's of dollars above premium. If they want it that bad they will pay for it. Esp if big players are capping. Just my 2 cents ..

Well Frozty2k, they already have stuff for ppl like you averagein out two months etc. Or so much per gb over after.

i thought the ctrc ruled on this alrdy, thus allowing third party to offer services...

said by Angelo_ :

Who knows..... Believe I've seen a few discussions of late about sand vines in sympatico forums and other throttling means in Rogers/etc... Not sure if this is the solution for them or if they're simply planning on blacklisting users/locations. Everything is still unknown as of yet, but, as I've just stated..... People are wanting it all now, instead of in small bites/bytes, so it's causing large, uncontrollable spikes during prime times for the big boys and thus, they have to fight back.

Wow, I can't see people doing 1TB+ a month doing it for personal use. I mean, assuming most of it isn't streaming stuff etc, you would need a lot of space, HD's are cheap but not that cheap.

Companies do have the right to protect themselves and their users, all I ask is for the companies to be straightforward about it's policies / reasons and have actual packages for people to go to.

If Tek does put a cap on, I wouldn't mind as long as it's not 60Gb like the Cable companies. I see the number 500Gb being thrown around, that wouldn't be too bad. It's way more than I download in a month anyway, so it wouldn't affect me, but it would be nice to have a high cap.

said by Angelo_ :

so no more unlimited???

said by Angelo_ :

can't you team up with third party isps if you have to verizon and offer service through a new medium ie adsl2+ on a shared medium that no one party controls?
