65 bucks for a monthly limit of 1TB. Not the fastest in the world, but fast enough. Comcast is the only option in my area.

With streaming of content between three folks, video editing and content creation, and an xbox that has nearly daily updates of dozens of gigs (seriously, why do these games have such large updates), I go through it nearly every month. 10 bucks extra for every 10GB over the 1TB. Data caps are crap.



It can happen pretty easily if you're needing some resources for a project, or if you're a at-home business with multiple people needing loads of resources. Or if you're just download ALL the 4k content lol.
well, I remember that when I left for Quebec city 1.5 years ago
I first changed my mom's internet connection to a lower speed and non-unlimited bandwidth
But the account was on my name and I wanted to change to my mom's
At first, the technician though I was still keeping the account and told me :
"You know this is limited bandwidth? Last month, you used 1.8TB of bandwidth"
I had to explain everything, that i was leaving etc etc

Yea, that was when I had like 250 torrents of the same site active all days
That's how I got my 5 ratio on that website :)

I keep wanting to run a home-server, but my monthly caps keep making it not a reality. I could blow through terabytes a month if there weren't caps X'D. I need to get out of this country quick.

But I never heard of Redflagdeals

redflagdeals is just a forum (it has an app too) for canadians to share deals and sales with each other.

so someone posted up that rogers had that special.

I pay 20$ a month for my mobile data. for 10MB/s (80mbps i think)and truly unlimited data, it's a pretty good deal for a person that downloads a lot of stuff daily. (around 100GB a week maybe)

Not sure about home. But for mobile, $35/month for 3GB with Boost Mobile. (Well, it's "unlimited", but after 3GB it drops down to 2G speeds)

ISP is sky, I believe £20 a month for 12mpbs download (sky is a trash isp that charges £100 for repairs, I once went a whole week without wifi because I wasn't willing to pay the £100 for an engineer to come down say its broken then leave)
upload is so slow it takes a minute to put images on discord

Just a thread to compare internet speed, price and also know if your ISP is the only ISP in your region

Let me start first :
I pay about 75$/month for 120mbps (20mbps for upload)
My ISP is videotron and the only other ISP (who offer similar speed) is Bell, which was crappy when I was with them years ago
Like, 20 bucks for an internet and mobile bundle. I got 300mbps internet.
