Rogers Internet Speed slow in the evenings in T.O. - check your speed with this test
- Thread starter swine
- Start date
i lived in the country and had bell high speed and had no issue with it at all. lived in toronto and had rogers and had constant problems with it. live in brampton now, my internet is included in my rent. it is with rogers but no issues as of yet.
The problem is partly that Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal, Calgary are made to subsidize the rest of the country. Canada's a big place and it's not economically viable to roll out top notch high end service to all the little towns and cities around the country.
However the big major cities, especially Toronto, could all on their own support a major deployment of really cutting edge technology. Toronto's got the population, and the population density, to profitably sustain fiber direct to most people's homes, at least in the city core, and in the built up areas in the burbs. To a lesser extent so do Calgary, Vancouver, Montreal, etc.
It never happens though because the big monopolistic players want to roll the same technology out across the whole country, and you can only afford to upgrade infrastructure like that once ever fifteen or twenty years.
So we lose.

It should be noted that the second speedtest in the OP can be run from a server operated by Teksavvy. The question is whether the speed that test shows (coming via your present ISP) is one they promise to better. It isn't easy fro someone like me to see how they can, if they're using the same wires, and are at the mercy of the same ISP's traffic control measures.
Do they actually commit to providing any defined base speed?

I experienced the same problem for Thornhill/Richmond Hill a few months ago, and my family has been quite pissed off at it - and we've done everything from our end to improve things but to little avail. It's worse when you also have VoIP phones and experience holes in both sending and reception.
