  @JaniceOwen @ZiadFazel @SaskTel That's not great for 'fibre'. I'm not sure what your wifi specifications are (they could be a bottleneck) but it feels like it isn't the issue. I always prefer direct cable test to make sure.

  @JaniceOwen @ZiadFazel @SaskTel There's actually simple methods they could use, such as if you aren't using your cable coax connections they could use them as Ethernet cables by adding converter at each end. The converter cost them equipment, just like longer Ethernet but avoids install issues or holes.

  @ZiadFazel @JaniceOwen @SaskTel Using a Ethernet cable for one speed test is a good idea. Let's you figure out if issue is the actual Internet service or your wifi.

  @JaniceOwen @ZiadFazel @SaskTel I know in city I have non fibre (dual ADSL) from Telus but I get what I'm supposed to. So should you. They also should help solve your wifi location issue if they are really doing their job right.

  @JaniceOwen @ZiadFazel @SaskTel Yep. And SaskTel should figure out which is the issue. As a tech person knowing if it's wifi versus the router to outside house connection would let me relocate wifi. (I'd buy long Ethernet cable to that reaches somewhere else.) You shouldn't need to hard wire everything.

  @emmagmay @Rogers Roger’s is horrible. We had Shaw fit fibre which wasn’t great but Rogers is WAY WAY WAY worse. Switching to Sasktel ASAP!

  Love seeing all the hot takes about "if you think leaving SaskTel Centre is bad wait until we have to try and leave a downtown arena!" Aren't there are many many routes out of downtown rather than one bottlenecked parking lot?

  @DPWeatherald @LangbankPlayer 1. Ask yourself why the shape of the SaskTel cellular map hasn’t changed much in 10 years? They’ve built the network out to (more or less) where the people are. (Existing coverage has been densified to improve data. Eg 5G). /2

  @TravisIanPater2 His tweet is ignorant at best and deliberately misleading at the worst. Everyone knows the CBC is a crown corp. Nothing was "exposed" here. It would be like Sasktel, labelled a government funded utility. He acting like its some sort of "gotcha" moment when its not.

  @SaskTel increasing phishing and spam since you contracted out your email service. Come on - you CAN DO BETTER. Was better when you hosted things yourself - filters were effective!! Tired of the spam getting through!!!

  @LaserAud @C_Classiques What is going to be the state of your network in 10 years without federal government billions...because it will happen...the federal government needs to cut everywhere. How many billions did the fédéral government spent on fiber? For Canada, likely in the 100 billion range the last 5 years. This is not going to happen again. Starlink is already a player...nearly 12 millions subscribers...from 6 last year... and projections is 200 millions by 2036...I say more in the billion range. What happens when it's cheaper to have a satellite antenna then fiber...it's already that in Montréal. I would have subscribed to it if it wasn't for the heavy tree cover over my house... this will be resolved with more satellites...they are launching them every couple of days. The v3 satellite is 100 times more powerful than v2mini...they have 10,000 v2 in orbit and project to have 1,000,000 v3 by 2036...if starship works of course...which it will. How does sasktel pay for the upgrades and repairs to their costly network? For that matter how does Bell and the other player do it? The answer is that they can't. I get it that you are a big fan of sasktel and you think that they will be able to compete...they will for a.time but not on the long term...none of the networks are. Good luck!

  Did they sell the Sasktel phone lists to con artists to pay down some of the debt?
