Videotron.ca....
I tried bell once because they insisted they were fast and 2 weeks later I was back with videotron... Like I said, I have no patience!

Wow. Just tested again (the last test was about 4 hours ago) and tested at 0.49mbps.

I had a problem with my Telus speed too a while back, so I phoned and complained. They walked me through a speed test and it came back LOW, so he pushed a few buttons on his computer at his end and whala.....WAY faster for me after that.

Phone and complain!!!!

FYI, speed test also depends on your location and web traffic. It may be marginally slower than what it shows.

My suggestion is to switch to Shaw. Telus continues to get customers due to ignorance that Shaw is a better ISP and provides way faster speeds. With lines nowadays, you don't need to worry about unstable Cable connections as opposed to half a decade ago where a dedicated DSL line was a "bit" slower but far more stable.

For those interested, run a speedtest @ www.speedtest.net
