Where you on Rogers before?
I was wondering how complicated it was to get off of Rogers internet?
I heard something about having to give advanced notice in writing etc.
I had a two year contract with Rogers starting in December, 2004, in which I was promised unlimited bandwidth. Less than two months into the contract, they cut the limits to 30 GB/ month. They later increased that to 60 GB/ month, but they instituted a policy they call "Traffic Shaping", which effectively means they throttle upload bandwidth for any file sharing/ torrent/ p2p apps. They don't throttle download bandwidth, because that comes from the uploaders' ISPs. Bell does the same thing. It's crap for private torrent sites where you have to maintain a minimum ratio of uploads vs downloads, unlike a public tracker such as thepiratebay or eztv, where you can stop uploading when your file is complete. When I used to use eMule, Rogers cut the upload bandwidth to about 5 kbits/sec, which is about dialup AOL speed. I ended my Internet association with Rogers when the two year contact was up, and have used Teksavvy since December, 2006.
Teksavvy is very pro p2p/torrent use, and they were very vocal about supporting their subscribers when Bell was trying to implement some bandwidth caps for DSL ISPs.
My only problem with Teksavvy is that I live several kilometers away from the nearest Bell relay station, so I usually have less than full bandwidth for a few hours most days, but if I leave the apps running, the bandwidth picks up again around 2 AM. People who live closer to relay stations won't have this problem.
One other thing about Rogers: NEVER let a Rogers technician be out of your sight if he's doing a house call!!! When we switched to Rogers phone, that cocksucker cut one inch chunks out of the Bell phone wires, which screwed up my DSL Internet. The Bell repairman fixed it, and told me this is frequently done, because he used to work for Rogers!
