Happy New Year
Greetings gentle reader,
I called Telus yestereday and discussed my DSL internet connection, its price, and apparent lack of any connection to the advertised deals they are offering. After a small amount of information discussion, we have been upgraded to some sort of bundle deal with the phone, long distance and 'better' DSL internet. All this for what will amount to less money per month than our average bills last year.
In the interests of transparency, I am posting here a couple of speed tests done tonight, and will do the same when we have been upgraded to the 'High Speed Enhanced" service. I am very curious to see if it is actually better...
Seems to peak out at about 1.3 Mbs DL and 0.5 Mbs UL, and all things considered is pretty consistent with distance (even to the Faroe Islands in the last example below).
Happy New Year.
Stephen
