I also wouldn't mind a nice break down on each service in terms of how one can potentially be more reliable than the other. I've heard some interesting things about ADSL and how someone in the neighborhood can basically slow down the entire area, and heard that with Cablesystems this isn't the case, and it's more of how far you are from the so-called "head office". I'd rather get some proper education on how both of these systems work, rather than relying on possible misinformation I learned before.
Wut? This was a common point against cable, back in the day. Nowadays it's just that the congestion points for each are a little different.
An interesting thought for a class to be held at the space, would be education on how ISP works in general, and compare ADSL to Cable without all the marketing bullshit. I am sure there are people at this space whom work for either MTS or Shaw, and having them at such a presentation would be a nice idea, perhaps both to get a better perspective.
MTS has a couple of different technologies in the field. Both the classic DSL/PPPoE, and vDSL/DHCP. Which is yours?
I think Ian had spoken about a talk or something before - I'd be interested in offering up what I know, but a lot of it is more speaking to particular services on the server side.
Anyway. Send me an IP/uid/something if you want and I'll check for obvious problems, too.
