High speed internet providers in Calgary?

[Tux10]

Hey guys,

Other then Telus and Shaw, are there any other high speed internet providers in Calgary? I am on Telus's 2.5MBPS plan right now but I was wondering if theres something faster but doesn't have the down/up limits that Shaw has, like a T1 or T3 provider.

Any help and perhaps prices would be great. Thanks guys.

are you looking for something comparable in price or are you willing to pay more?

You realize what this costs right?

Otherwise talk to Sprint, GT or TAC(Telus)

Also you can call Bigpipe, its shaw's fiber company, like TAC for telus I guess.

yea t1 and t3 will be insanely expensive for the average home user to the point its not even worth it unless you got money to blow. But have you checked out the shaw extreme package, its something around 650KB/s down and 112KB/s up and if i remember correctly there was a 50gb limit but not really enforced.
