"Rogers Advisory Panel" survey on bandwidth throttling

[abu_sme]

If you think that Rogers is bad, check out my speed result with shaw



I downloaded about 1.5 gigs of torrents 2 nights ago, and haven't touched it since, but they throttled back my ENTIRE connection for the last 2 day down to an absolute crawl. This is the last straw, I am cancelling my account with them in the morning and switching to Telus, who never really enfore their limits.

I have no problems on SHAW..and this test was done on my laptop over WiFi.

if the average user uses 5Gb per month, then why throttle, rogers? why do u have to worry if the average user uses 5GB

What a bunch of BS... they are bunch of crooks and they know it. This survey is only an attempt to justify their throttling policy.

Let's see, I'm going to put together a "panel" of my friends and ask people if getting free cable TV by stealing it saves money, if the majority says "yes" then it's alright to steal cable TV.

Wow, good attempt at justifying your stinginess and bad business practices Rogers
