Any suggestions? I don't want to go with Rogers or Bell. I think they are too expensive. They both have 60Gb bandwidth limit now. I need unlimited bandwidth.

if you want cheap technical support get acanac,

if you want amazing tech support go with tek savvy

also acanac you have to pay for the year when you sign up, its not monthly payments

Website: http://www.Teksavvy.com
Forum: http://www.dslreports.com/forum/teksavvy
Download Speed: Up to 5mbit (about 520kbps)
Upload Speed: Up To 800kbps
Download/Upload Cap: 200GB/Month
Price: $29.95/Month + Tax

They also got Unlimited Bandwidth for $39.95/month but 200gb is probably enough. Also for every person you refer you get $1 off
your monthly bill as long as they are still a client at Teksavvy.

You will need to buy a DSL Modem, you can buy one from Teksavvy for $99 & they will configure it for you if you ask. OR you can
buy the same modem from these guys for cheaper but you have to configure it yourself, which is not very hard.
SpeedTouch 516 ADSL2+ Modem: http://www.infonec.com/site/main.php?mo ... &id=350362

Notes: Tech support is all Ontario based not out sourced to another country where you cant understand what the person is saying.
Also tech support is one of the best of any Internet Company in Ontario that I know of.

Hi Paul,

I'm moving to a house that doesn't have a phone line. Do you also provide that service? I'm not sure if the Residential Unlimited service for $9.95 is the one I should be getting in order to have your Residential High Speed ADSL without any Limits.

Please advise.

Thanks.

I didn't know Acanac offers monthly plan. It's the yearly payment that actually scare me away. How much is the monthly plan then? and no contract I believe. And Unlimited DL. Right?

I called them yesterday.

The year plan is $222 (18.55 a month).

The monthly plan is $39.90.

Thanks. So that's nothing excited. Ppl looking for cheap service won't pay $39.90 after a year and nobody will stay. Whereas ppl can afford to pay $39.90 won't bet their money for the whole year on the cheaper plan. Not a good strategy.

The monthly price does include tax and unlimited bandwidth. I can't speak for every client, but Acanac did not become one of the largest DSL providers in Canada if clients were not ordering. Again we are not for everyone, but we do offer a choice.

I would have to say 3web is the cheapest.....$29.95 a month with unlimited bandwidth..!! And if you want to buy the modem its only $60. I pay $36.65 taxes included for service and modem rental. If I owned the modem it would be $31.45 after tax.....

$1 off??

The referral program with acanac works like this.


For every customer you refer you get 1 Month free. Once you reach 10 customers we give you free service for life.
