Pretty much the best you can get out here without paying out the ass (while keeping a decent amount of bandwidth). Can't wait to get back to Vancouver.

Mb/s = Megabits
Megabits / 8 = Megabytes (MB)

I'm pretty clear on it. 25-30 Megabits (3-4 MB/s) is still really fast compared to the rated speeds (7.5-15Mb/s according to shaw's website)

Telus is fine, you guys just need to get the faster service, and factor in that Shaw has speedboost so the first minute is always a lot faster than the average speed.



The only problem I have with ALL ISP in Canada right now is the disgustingly slow upload speed - so 3rd world!
