Man if there's one thing I can credit bell for, is that they really pushed for fiber. Before we had bell fibe here (for a shockingly reasonable price) in Montreal, we were stuck with absolute trash DOCSIS for so long. Every time the revisions increased ,the speeds would be nominally faster but in reality came with trash stability and peak time performance. I'm sure DOCSIS is great for what it is, and in fact it's extremely impressive what it can do with existing cable lines, but the second biggest player here (Videotron) basically milked it dry. Again it's weird to praise them but Bell invested in wiring up the entire city and suburbs and I can get 3gbps symmetrical GPON FTTH for the price that 150mbps used to go for not even 3 years ago. I blame DOCSIS in a way because it made players with existing lines extremely complacent |
