I live in Toronto, Canada and I've been using @home through Rogers Cable for the past 2 weeks. My experience is similar to the articles you have posted....very sluggish access. It took me 3 minutes to access the respond page after reading the articles. Waits of more than a minute happen about 20% of the time. Waits of 10 sec to a minute happen about 40% of the time and instant page changes happen about 40% of the time. The above applies to SI threads. I have no experience with any other threads so I can't compare.

Downloading Video and accessing most other web sites is a flash. It's great...accept that I'm on SI 90% of the time.

I haven't visited the ATHM thread before so if I'm repeating a theme that's been explored already let me know and I'll search back.

Basically, I would like to know whether this is a systems problem and whether it is fixable or not. Otherwise I'll go back to my telephone ISP.

Thanks in advance
