    Odd, we pay for 250mbps of internet speed but aren't receiving nearly that from @startca 🤔 unplugged the modem, the router, heck we even got a new pc today but still pretty poor on the download speed 🤔 the upload speed is exactly what we're paying for but this is odd...

  • stvndxn Steven Dixon (@stvndxn) reported

    @startca any known issues in the midhurst (L4N) area? Internet has been down for an hour, modem can’t acquire downstream channels, wondering if it’s weather related or if I’m just lucky. :)

  • ally_young81 Alison Young (@ally_young81) reported

    @startca just wondering if there’s an issue with Sportsnet Ontario? We’d like to watch the Leaf game, but the channel will no load. Every other channel is fine.

  • elizabethz92 Betharoo⁷ (@elizabethz92) reported

    @startca Perhaps if you’re going to raise the prices, your internet service should actually connect. Where is that covered in literacy

  • Lewdlandgaming LewdlandGaming (@Lewdlandgaming) reported

  • steve_ca2002 Keep Left (@steve_ca2002) reported

    @ally_young81 @startca For that Leaf game , I had to go over to the neighbours who use Bell/Fibe, they laugh at my Start issues. The game was clear as a "Bell". I didn't tell them about the quality of CNN on Start TV, it's too embarrassing.

    @startca No, we've been over this, I no longer want your help. You could have helped me the 2 times I got stood up by your tech. Now...I just want to make sure everyone knows.

  • geebs1983 Jordan (@geebs1983) reported

    @startca If you want to game you can't If you want to work from home you can't If you want to use gambling sites, you can't There is 1 upside, weight loss. I've lost 10 pounds going up and down the stairs 5+ times a day to reset my internet.

  • sophiefosters Tia ✰ She/Her ✰ 🏳️‍⚧️ (@sophiefosters) reported

    My internet went down (for the second time) so I called support. The gentlemen was amazing and helpful. I hoped to share the love,by the time I made it back to my computer my internet had once again crashed. I love @startca and I usually have no complaints but come on 😭

    @startca What channels are down tonight? Just the Leafs game? Unbelievable

  • ceeieh Allen Dulles (@ceeieh) reported

    @startca having problems connecting to most websites. Diagnostics are giving DNS server error. Hearthstone and Spotify are strangely working, though.

  • jimmycanuck Jim Squires is probably on fire 🔥 (@jimmycanuck) reported

    @cogecohelps @cogeco @startca So when my mother-in-law is using an older non-wifi modem, she would have to change her whole service to get a wifi one? She couldn’t just upgrade the modem?
