I've actually cancelled our Internet service through Bell, and switched to a smaller, "Indie" ISP. They're charging less per month, AND we're getting faster Internet speeds.

I am with Disributel DSL and during the week my download speed is max 25-28 kbps on the weekend i most often get between 300kbps and 600kbps so sure sounds like "throttling" to me.  By the way Distributel is using Bell infrastructure. truenorth
