Im like Bads .. I got 10gig down/5gig UP/month on my cable connection !! I pay to much for this shitty 15k/s max in upload !!!!

26 mb/s? Sounds a little unbelievable, especially to offer something like this to a consumer...for that low of a cost. But, if it is true, then GO FOR IT!!!!

Yep, i'm using a 26.4k connection here, woohoo! Good ol' dialup in the mountains.

/spoiler warning !

The full 26 Mb/s has a limit of 300 meters from the central,
at 1000 meters the speed has dropped to 13 Mb/s
Then it keeps on dropping, so you have to live CLOSE to get this speed.

News Flash for us in BC Canada.

Telus is offering a free modem and one year of adsl service for 24.99 per month. If you have a package with telus already (call display etc) you get the first year for 19.99 a month.

I know its not "extreme speed internet" but thought I would give you guys in BC a heads up :)
