[kwlug disc.] Rogers ISP - cost competitive?

you can go to the c-net bandwidth test site:

To get the "real" speed, make sure you reset your
modem before the test.

At home it happens that if we are uploading or
downloading something heavy to a P2P network the
bandwidth goes south after a while, even after the
transmission finishes.
