trying to get everything new hooked up in my trailer when i move back and cant really make up my mind what to go to

telus fastest speed available is the highspeed turbo 10-15mbs 20$ for 6month with a bundle for 2 years contract and 47$ after 6 month

eastlink fastest available is highspeed 5 (5mbs) for 34.95 a month


what i need is fast internet since i download alot


what are u thinking ? go for a plan with telus or go eastlink and hope they make the network better and offer faster speed and phone in whitecourt soon ?


also not to sure if i go to telus if i should take the plan for a smartphone or the xbox360 since im doing ok with my current cell (paytogo)

I'm thinking the speed at which your porn will download is way too important to you...

what a helpful bunch u 2 are what we do without u

I actually really liked shaw when I lived in the city, but I see you didn't give that as one of your options....

usually the bundles are the way to go, with shaw we had internet, phone and cable all on one bill and it wasn't bad....

From experience out in my area, I would not touch eastlink, I went with Telus. I got sick of eastlink's empty promises for network upgrades and poor network and customer service. When I got Telus service I was also given a free xbox 360 (newest model) would have taken Telus even with out the free xbox.

optik is also not available in whitecourt
highest i could get is high speed turbo at Download speed: 10 - 15 Mbps

kinda sux with telus that pretty much all plans have download limits per month since when is that ?

They don't enforce it but they do throttle your torrents :rant: Been on a downloading spree lately and they've cut me back to 160kbps on the torrents. Netflix and regular internet is still good though. But 160kbps is taking forever for my porn to download, and I'm heading overseas for 9 months......need all of it I can get. :d
