Depends on your building, you might be stuck with Rogers. Not that DSL is any better, though. Maybe you should just rent a condo from someone whose building provides internet connectivity and stream TV :P

I use Teksavvy for internet. Their basic package offers unlimited bandwidth for a very good price. Avoid Rogers and Bell as will throttle your bandwidth and charge you through the nose if you use it for anything more than bare bones surfing.

I'm lucky to live In Thunder Bay where I can get shaw cable. I get 50mbps internet connect for 49.99 a month. 250gb limit.

Shaw's fastest is 250 mbps at about 119$ a month.

Where are you located? There's more and more companies creating private networks, delivering fiber to condo buildings downtown.

Blarg... Good luck. They all suck and are a huge rip-off. Try to get wifi from your cell. Download a hotspot app

One easy solution..
Buy a magicjack (magicjack.com) ship it back home. Your family can then use it to call you as much as you want for $20 a year. You can also call the Canadian number it comes with . Only issue is they would need to either hook it up to their computer when they want to call or leave it connected and the computer on all the time if they want to receive your calls.
