Hello Jay!

 AA>> The whole technology is over-priced.

 JH> We're now paying $101.99 /mo for the internet + $10 /mo for the modem, so
 JH> $111.99 /mo plus taxes ($126.55 tax total).  (The modem was free for the
 JH> first two years).

Yep, overpriced. But we're letting Bell get away with it.

A friend of mine has the Rural Net package from Bell (a small  
cellular-based receiver attached to a pole/extender at the side  
of his home. He get's the "unlimited" package ..and I set up  
his Samsung TV to connect via wi-fi and use the built-in TV  
browser; it's not a bad solution. But I still think this "data"  
tech is overpriced for what it delivers.  He's paying over  
$100/mo too.


 JH> Bell recently ran fibre down our street and knocked on my door..

 JH> I was happy to sign to have them install, but they have yet to do so.

Recently as in post-lockdowns?


 JH> Though from what I understand Bell Fibe doesn't yet support IPv6..

Hmmm.. That sounds unusual.  I didn't know that.
