by mattmoris - 5/11/06 2:17 PM In reply to: How much do YOU pay for Broadband? by boringcomI'm on a retention plan from Rogers in Canada for the next 6 months.
24.99/month for 6mbps down/800kbps up.
All I have to do is call them in 6 months and if they don't give me a lower price than 47.99/month, I will switch to their competitor who gives the first 3 months for 9.99/month and 29.99/month thereafter.
High Speed?
by HD1080p - 5/13/06 9:01 AM In reply to: How much do YOU pay for Broadband? by boringcomWell I pay about $45:00 Canadian for "Unlimited download"
Usual speed is around 4820kbps UP and around 485kbps DOWN. This seems to be adequate for my needs and is, I think, a fair price. Plus we get really good support.
Re: High Speed?
by boringcom - 5/15/06 9:47 AM In reply to: High Speed? by HD1080pInteresting. Which provider?
I pay $56 Canadian, tax-in, for capped downloads and uploads (20 GB down, 10 GB up), 5.1 Mbps down (I've seen sustained downloads at 590 KBps ~= 4720 Kbps) and 900 Kpbs up. (Montreal; Videotron)
Who's you're provider and where are you located?

I get 768 kb/s upload speeds and 3 MB/s download speeds plus 6 free e-mail accounts. This is from the local cable TV company which means that you also have to get cable TV at $37 per month.

by merrybrown - 5/27/06 7:37 PM In reply to: How much do YOU pay for Broadband? by boringcomCable speeds are not consistent.
I think DSL is less, but no other alternative.
Really wish I knew if Earthlink was less expensive ... heh heh heh
