You know what you signed up for, just give us more money and we’re gonna launch more garbage in the skies in an attempt to make our company invaluable and when it doesn’t work we’ll have the us government keep us afloat or launch an ipo and say we’re doing 10Gb/s in 3. Years once we have 100000 sats in the air and gently caress you.

What amazes me most about this is actually Interac. How could a national service only have one ISP? Interac is literally down across the country because Rogers went down? Come on guys.

I'm in Edmonton, and while I was poking around with what is available, I came across Oxio, and was wondering if anyone had experience with them, either good or bad or nightmare. They've been around for about 2 years total in any province. It's another reseller. Nice website and some good words. I'm skeptical of a ceo with no other experience other than this company. https://www.linkedin.com/in/marcandrecampagna/ They've only had an ASN since 2020-08-18 so pretty brand new. They just started peering with 2 other providers in August which is an improvement because any isp only peering with one source is bad. https://bgp.he.net/AS398721#_whois I dunno. Try it, if it doesn't work for you, cancel it?

CRTC OTHER TARIFF NOTICES [CRTC Tariff Notice] Telus TN 0573 – Introduce a Credit Card Processing Fee • Telus proposed a new credit card processing fee of 1.5% of the payment amount. • Telus noted that in 2018, a class action lawsuit resulted in Visa and Mastercard agreeing to modify their No-Surcharge Rules, allowing merchants to surcharge customers up to a cap starting October 6, 2022 • In a letter to Telus dated August 15, 2022, the Commission wrote that, having received many interventions opposing this tariff, the Commission will not grant interim approval of this tariff. See! Things do happen when people actually take notice of what's happening. That's some scummy poo poo, how many other companies are going to throw on a credit card surcharge after October 6.

unknown posted:We've deployed Starlink in Nunavut and far enough north that even Starlink is like "you're at the edge of our service area" and we're able to have a solid VPN connection with only occasional outages (2-3x day) of a few minutes at a time because there's not enough satellites deployed that far north currently. Been amazing in comparison to microwave links. Your friend probably screwed up his dish placement. This is so location dependant that a blanket statement of “your dish placement is bad” doesn’t make a lot of sense.

Fibre is always going to be better because you’re not dealing with copper anywhere. It’s all light. Theoretically your speeds are unlimited, and trials are happening now for 50G PON. That would be 50 gig to your house. Wait another 5 years, and 100G might exist over PON. DOCSIS has a limit, and will fall farther out of a favour as the years go by.

MasterBuilder posted:What's the likelihood after consolidation Telus and Rogers will go back to their fuckers days. Getting dicked around by them back in university has put a bad taste in my mouth and even blazing fast internet isn't going to wash that out. 100%. Basically all smaller independent ISP's have gone. You have maybe 12 left scattered throughout the country, but nothing super large. Now it's the Rogers, Telus and Bell show. You can guarantee the fuckery will be huge.

Ask Telus to come back and fix your connection by moving the cable where it should have been in the first place.

Wouldn’t surprise me. There’s only be a minimum amount of spectrum running right now, and adding all users when you were only calculating half has probably sent the performance in the shitter. They’ll add some more ran and antenna soon and it’ll fix itself.

They're probably fine. Looking at their website they're using the Nokia XGS-PON platform which is the best of the best. Small company, but they seem to be following the same model as Novus in BC. https://www.novusnow.ca/. Connect to MDU's and deliver cheap services where there's not a lot of capital overlay to gain customers.

Rogers will have historical levels on hand that the tsr would have used to dispatch a tech. It’s just very weird that rebooting a modem would cause no link. I’ve never heard of that before.

I'd say it really depends on what service levels you're getting from NWT. Assume they fix your issue and it's stable again, what are your speeds? A Starlink cell is about 400Mb/s down, and 50Mb/s up. Each cell is around 40km in diameter. Depending on your area and how many people are in your cell, you can experience ok service, or poor service. Plus as you mentioned you'll need to get the thing mounted, make sure you have a clear line of sight to the north (no trees) and then mount and deal with that yourself. Your customer support is also just a ticketing system. No phone numbers, no emails. It's pretty expensive none the less, but NWT might not be much better, they're probably the 2nd worst ISP now after Xplornet.

Oof. If it was me I would get them to fix your poo poo, then tell them to cut the bill to $90/mo permanently or you're switching. I hate saying it, but again, depending how many people are in your starlink cell and how your tree situation is at your house, you'll probably have a better experience than NWT.

Precambrian Video Games posted:... why pointed north? A quick search says the satellites don't go higher than 53' N so surely any dish in the territories would have to point south. I think that information is outdated. We use approximately 15 Starlinks in various capacities around British Columbia and they all face north. From the NWT/Yukon border south. We don't have any deployed in NWT or Yukon though, so my information may be wrong and you need to face south.

teethgrinder posted:Dumb question...do smart bulbs, switches, etc potentially cause local WiFi issues? Been using a Nest mesh a few years and finding lately we need to reboot it roughly once a week to restore performance. Smart bulbs, switches, etc can run on all sorts of frequencies depending on what you have. Some cheaper ones strictly run on 2.4GHz to your router, which wouldn't cause interference. The better ones run using Zigbee which on 2.4GHz run from channel 1 - channel 25. Anything Channel 1 - 11 on 2.4GHz could cause interference with your router. Anything past that won't. Zigbee also uses 902-928MHz which has no impact on your typical wifi router. You shouldn't have to reboot any "Nest Mesh". I think you have other issues.
