@RSwartz2013 @WeatherLandG I'm with Videotron, no issues except my phone is connected to a tower across the river in Quebec, about 10km away. The Rogbellus tower 1km away is showing offline.

.@Videotron over the past couple of weeks one of your cell towers in #Barrhaven has been malfunctioning. Despite 2-4 bars of signal strength and “LTE” displayed, no cellular data works. SMS and calls still work though. Same problem on multiple devices. #Videotron

So @Videotron sent a collection agency to collect $$ from my 84yr old with ALS for not returning his cablebox. The issue is that the tech who installed the box put a lock on it and we could not remove. I explained to videotron reps but they just want $$ #greedy

@itsreallypaulh @myworldtaw I agree Videotron plans and customer service is great. We have 4 phones with them, each with 20GB/month +100GB extra per year, for $45 per phone

@jfmezei When I was teen we were with Videotron. When we lost internet, when I called customer services I would start a movie and finish it before the tech support answer the line!

@What23HasDone That's not what happened. He just gave it to Videotron who will price fix with Rogers like they already do. It's a way to save face to the public and still get Rogers what they wanted. Now Rogers doesn't have to worry about being undercut,while Videotron cause easily raise prices

@Videotron i woke up on charging my CC for $600 and when i inquire about that your department told me that i used it. They never understood that the sim card wasn’t in my cellphone in the last month. Rude and unprofessional CS. They didn’t even cooperate to investigate!! #quebec

@Mae149 @noIPv6 @Videotron More likely your VPN implementation was broken all along, you just didn't test it properly. The correct fix is probably to roll out IPv6 in your VPN as well... And that is long overdue anyway.

@Mae149 @Videotron I am incredibly interested to learn more about not using DNS resolution I thought it was a requirement for ipv6. Is there some other service discovery you are using?
-
👻 spooky ipv6-only networking 👻
(@noIPv6) reported
@Videotron @Mae149 agreed - if a vpn breaks in the presence of ipv6 (w/ legacy ip remaining intact), that’s a vpn problem, not an ipv6 problem 🤨 ipv6 is coming (34-37% of .ca has it NOW); if your tech falls over when it rolls out, you made implementation mistakes (& should have tested for that)
