wow all of you have such crappy upload speeds. 25 down 3 up is ridiculous. I'd much prefer 15 both ways then 25down 3 up. I'll stick with my 25down 15up for $40 though

Videotron offers up to 50 Mbps but with a lower download limit so I'll stick with 10 mbps for now. Bell Canada offers 25 mbps but with a 60GB/month download limit.

Advertised at 15/5 but actually provisioned at 25/25 and paying 49.99 per month.

I normally reach 26mbit download, there are 2 other computers on the network so they're probably using a bit of bandwidth.
