Richard, Have you actually confirmed that Naked DSL is available? While you have been able to order a loop for many years you needed to provide the connection on both ends (ie you were not connected to the Nexia DSL network)
Having worked for Magma before they were purchased by Primus I can tell you they generally offer excellent service and if you are using Unlimitel they are the best DSL option as all traffic between Unlimitel and Magma does not cross the public internet. However, I made the move to Rogers from Magma (in order to shed my local line) and have not looked back. Traffic from Rogers in Ottawa to Unlimitel usually routes via Torix which is pretty reliable/fast. I would think Toronto would be even better. traceroute to sip.unlimitel.ca <http://sip.unlimitel.ca> (64.26.157.251<http://64.26.157.251>), 30 hops max, 38 byte packets 1 192.168.212.5 <http://192.168.212.5> (192.168.212.5 <http://192.168.212.5>) 5.035 ms 0.869 ms 0.882 ms 2 10.81.36.1 <http://10.81.36.1> (10.81.36.1 <http://10.81.36.1>) 7.885 ms 8.743 ms 8.473 ms 3 gw03.slnt.phub.net.cable.rogers.com<http://gw03.slnt.phub.net.cable.rogers.com>( 66.185.90.145 <http://66.185.90.145>) 9.069 ms 9.664 ms 9.4 84 ms 4 gw01.slnt.phub.net.cable.rogers.com<http://gw01.slnt.phub.net.cable.rogers.com>( 66.185.93.225 <http://66.185.93.225>) 10.063 ms 10.759 ms 1 4.427 ms 5 gw03.etob.phub.net.cable.rogers.com<http://gw03.etob.phub.net.cable.rogers.com>( 66.185.83.198 <http://66.185.83.198>) 14.570 ms 15.221 ms 2 2.004 ms 6 gw02.bloor.phub.net.cable.rogers.com<http://gw02.bloor.phub.net.cable.rogers.com>( 66.185.80.169 <http://66.185.80.169>) 21.062 ms 15.864 ms 14.314 ms 7 gw01.front.phub.net.cable.rogers.com<http://gw01.front.phub.net.cable.rogers.com>( 66.185.81.18 <http://66.185.81.18>) 15.703 ms 14.774 ms 1 5.916 ms 8 gw-magma.torontointernetxchange.net<http://gw-magma.torontointernetxchange.net>( 198.32.245.33 <http://198.32.245.33>) 17.571 ms 22.058 ms 1 5.973 ms 9 206.191.0.106 <http://206.191.0.106> (206.191.0.106 <http://206.191.0.106>) 25.120 ms 23.794 ms 23.051 ms 10 server1.westernitgroup.com <http://server1.westernitgroup.com> ( 206.191.20.178 <http://206.191.20.178>) 23.985 ms 21.749 ms 26.468 ms J
