I currently use Cogeco cable in Oakville, ON, Canada. It has been fantastic! I don't think I've used a provider with as much available throughput (exactly as advertised). Only occasionally does the service go up and down, but that is infrequent. I have an external modem, and am using a pure VoIP setup with IAX trunking to my VoIP/PSTN gateway. Only occasionally do I get a dropped packet or something, but nothing to worry about. I spoke with my parents for an hour over the connection, and there was no problems (actually... I was getting some echo, but Asterisk nicely took care of it, and my parents were not aware of any echo cancelling going on until I told them what Asterisk was doing on my end, as I could hear it working). I will be using Cogeco again for me internet (cable) so that I don't have to pay Bell any money. Unfortunately my buzzer isn't going to work in the apartment, so I'll have to let guests in, but hey, I'll do a bit of leg work just to save any of my money going to the greater of two evils :) Leif Madsen. http://www.asteriskdocs.org _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
