Originally Posted By disneylandfan8 I confess I, too, would LOVE to hop over the pond and help Smedley! I'd even bring some Airborne and Zicam and blue Jello! Anything else, smeds?
Originally Posted By smedley I confess that no I don't think anything else would be necessary LOL! I confess it's going to be a busy old weekend trying to get things done!

Originally Posted By avromark I further confess when I get back the more I despise Bell Internet's speed throttling. As it is a 5mbit profile is pathetic (come on that's so 1999!)

With what they charge and the records profits they earn you think they could maybe invest in infrastructure improvements? But I guess the executives need their multi million dollar a year bonuses more then I need my Slingbox to work. (I need Sports Centre not Sports Center!)
Originally Posted By avromark OK unlike you (USA), CRTC has ruled that Bell (Who owns pretty much 99.99% of the telephone lines in Canada) can "speed throttle" your connection.

(Right now I'm connecting at 24.7k a second for video packets (a 56k dial-up connection usually connects at least at 43k) so if you're in Canada and you're not on cable for about 9 hours a day (Starting at 2pm) you're foobared if you want to say stream through slingbox HD to your slingcatcher in your hotel so you can watch local TV. Say you're trying to watch Hulu. I need to be up at like 3am if I want to see a smooth picture. Otherwise my video stutters worst then Cindy Brady. Don't let this happen to you. Speed Throttling means they advertise "Watch Videos on your High Speed connection" but the potato farmer in Idaho has a faster connection. Darn those Nurmis in BC who are in a Telus area. Their internet works! It is legal for them to packet sniff here (They can slow down video packets)
