  • HydraulicDesign
    James Carruthers (@HydraulicDesign) reported

    @xplore_ca sent someone to "upgrade" my service to a new nearby tower and my service went from "fair" to "almost unusable." The contractor brushed off my immediately noticing it was worse as if I can't tell the difference between my wifi and my Net speed.

    @voiceshapes I use Xplornet because Bell up here is slower than dial up. Still use the modem that came with it and have no issues

    @elonmusk @SpaceX Cancelling, been waiting 2 years, and now data caps and throttling? I can get that garbage from Xplornet now.

    @BezirganMocha /2 I can't get internet other than Starlink. Even cell signal is limited to 2 bar LTE at best and often degrades to 3G. At another property in '98 promised DSL in 6 months by Bell. Today, only Xplornet satellite (which is **** and very expensive) or Starlink.

    Also, why is Xplornet not made party to this #CRTC outage file? Do they not operate at all in the area hit by hurricane Fiona?

  • BrettRace
    Brett Petracek (@BrettRace) reported

    @LyttonW90219 @Martyupnorth_2 The satellite xplornet was migraine inducing. Their tower service is much better, but i don't think they offer above 50mbps yet. If they don't offer faster speeds/higher bandwidth soon I might be going to starlink.

    @xplore_ca Don’t care at all about your wishes, just provide the service we pay for, it’d be a Christmas miracle!

    @xplore_ca You need to fix your internet it's getting really annoying I use YouTube to help me sleep and it never works I try resetting and nothing

  • JoshCiemitis
    Josh Ciemitis (@JoshCiemitis) reported

    @xplore_ca Internet has been down in many areas for about 21 hours, checked with a couple websites that also confirmed it. I reset the router & modem multiple times, bypassed the router & hooked the modem directly to a laptop and still nothing. Any eta on when it will work again?

  • kowalat
    Jo Watier (@kowalat) reported

    @MtlYlavoie @simard_colette He was the only way we could get decent, fast, reliable Internet after Xplornet. With Xplornet it took between 2-3 minutes just to go from one email to the next. Speed was crap but with Starlink lightning fast. We only got rid in September because Bell Fibe arrived,

    @BrentStaeben My parents live in a dead spot for cell service, but have Xplornet and seems to work pretty well for them (and me when I visit)

  • i_like_soup_
    J✨ (@i_like_soup_) reported

    Hey Xplornet!! A customer not having internet for 6 days is not acceptable in case you were wondering!!! I put up with having 2 Mbps speeds when I pay for 50 Mbps (at a price that should get me gigabit speeds) but this is ridiculous!!!

  • pcman87654
    JJ Temple (@pcman87654) reported

    @xplore_ca Still blows my mind how you can't update your customers during the outage but you'll share posts about bald eagles casually. Was on hold for over 3 hours trying to figure out what was going on and didn't get through to anybody.

  • CdnARS_VE4PER

    @BobIrvingCJOB and since I am in rural area with @Xplore aka xplornet ISP with oversold network hardware infrastructure service often degrades so badly that they force me to be wasting my $25/mo fee on bomber games as well so these things appear to be new standards of customer service 4 all biz

  • RuralOntWoman
    Farming in Ontario (Leasa Janssen) (@RuralOntWoman) reported

    @xplore_ca Your Internet connection is very slow. Your Internet download speed is very low. Web browsing should work, but videos could load slowly. ~Can't wait until Roger's has the cable done for our area.

  • DaveAHudec
    David Hudec (@DaveAHudec) reported

    @xplore_ca Once again business fiber is down during operating hours and can't get ahold of anyone for support... Why are we paying $600 a month and can't even talk to someone for support.

    Oh for ****'s sake #Xplornet are you doing this bullshit on purpose???!!!!!

  • CJH39493411
    CJH (@CJH39493411) reported

    @xplore_ca I would but I’ve already talked to your people but apparently when you bought out my internet provider you trained 0 of your people on the system so support is basically non existent. Slow speeds, high cost, no customer support. What exactly am I paying these criminal rates for?

  • LLowney49
    CityyGal (@LLowney49) reported

    I had @xplornet, the service was terrible, usually single digit download speeds when it worked at all, so I canceled it. I am 73 years old and they expect me to climb up on my roof to retrieve a piece off the dish or they are going to charge me $500. #xplornetsucks

  • pandamoan
    peter sutherland (@pandamoan) reported

    What’s up Xplornet? You’re putting out a signal as reliable as a deadbeat Dad. Too little, too late. No acknowledgement. Outsourced reporting of outages. But premium prices. WTF from K0K3K0.

  • JasonDwright2
    Jason Wright (@JasonDwright2) reported

    @issaibahim84 @Bell_Support StarLink is 140.00 a month. We are up over 450 mbs on a Gen2 receiver. The Mini we have on the trucks ,we are seldom under 350 mbs even doing 65 mph down the highway. We had Bell,it went down more than my ex wife,samething with Xplornet,Telus. Starlink has been the best to date.

    @CBCNews Xplornet charges far too much. Please fix this.

    @xplore_ca The connection is back. But it was down for an hour or two.

  • Right_Central
    Right Central Views (@Right_Central) reported

    @xplore_ca It's overly expensive for no reason. The recent upgrade I got is a lot more stable but there are times it is absolute dog **** for the 100+ dollars I pay a month for 50mbs. Waiting for Fibre to come down my road.

    @JennArndt Our ONLY Internet option for our new house is Xplornet, and it's HORRIBLE. So frustrating. So expensive for extremely slow Internet.

    Hugh G Rekshun (@ThirtyStone420) reported

    @djhaubrich You don’t actually have pay for their service calls. That’s just another way they try to suck more money out of you. Just don’t back down from saying no. They’ll fold. They always do. I was a Xplornet customer for 20+ years now I have @SpaceXStarlink

    @1969Commando @MrStache9 Yea sadly I have XplorNet which loses satellite signal if a seagull farts in the distance.
