I've been running sympatico flawlessly since it's introduction about 5 or 6 years ago.. in fact, it's about 1,000 times better than Rogers as the cable infrastructure is so friggin' old in this building, anytime someone ran a blender, the connection when to crap...
most of my friends with cable are amazed at how fast my DSL is compared to their cable.. especially during peak periods. I know that Cable 2.0 was supposed to address the shared bandwidth issue of cable modems, but not sure if it's widespread yet.
Not to mention the packet prioritizing and splitting that Rogers is starting to do to combat shared bandwidth hogs like torrents and whatnot.... sure you have 10mbit, but do you get to use all of it all the time? that's never been an issue with DSL.
Should I also mention that along with IP TV, Bell is also offering 16mbit fiber? Now that's ultra-highspeed...
