@cattlemen (@cattlemen1979) reported@xplore_ca It’s awful internet Was told if it was slow in the evening that’s just how it is the network is too busy like wtf
-
Mason (@MasonXavCam) reported@Xplore_CA is terrible. Unreliable.
-
Syd_Vakarian (@Syd_Vakarian) reported@xplore_ca wow, you charge $75 for someone to come to my house to test and see if I can get service. and if I can't, then I have to pay the $75, but if there's service available at my house I don't have to pay the $75 for the test. what in the hell is that? Gross.
-
Lomaxcat (@VoosieVooters) reported@xplore_ca I'm getting latency of 1.5s with my Xplore service. Not much of a bargain.
-
Dan Wiebe (@DanWiebeFree) reported@xplore_ca Don’t believe a word of Xplorenet . I know this from personal experience and my friends and acquaintances share my experience. The speeds and data are far lower than they “sell” their service is crap. Starlink work’s terrific.
-
Mitchell Mcintosh (@kujala_good) reported@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
-
yup yup yup (@blueyblondy) reportedGoodbye, @xplore_ca. I'm so glad to be rid of your terrible product and service forever. Long live, #STARLINK @Starlink
-
Commissioner Miner (@fanCRTCProfling) reportedAlternative explanation: These people use Xplornet that never works. These people used to hitting send 9 times for everything. A product of their "world Class" Canadian Communications. This is likely the best explanation and "OpenMedia" was honest enough to show it. #CRTC

SirFrancis Bacon (@SirFrancisBac20) reported@xplore_ca Pull it down
-
june ⭐️🌙 (@junee_swift) reported@xplore_ca are you experiencing an outage? I’ve tried connecting through an Ethernet cable (no luck), I’ve done a power cycle, I checked my account to make sure it was nothing on my end. Why haven’t I had internet for longer than an hour since before Christmas? #xplorenet
-
MeanLadyOnTheSwing♀️ (@MichelleWTHell) reported@xplore_ca WTF??? Is this why there's an increase on my bill? So you guys can drive brand new trucks?
-
Sir Jerry J. Molnár (@BlackhawkJer) reported@xplore_ca how does one get ahold of your support team? Won't answer to the online portal, phone calls are left on hold. Now resorting to email request.
-
Sir Jerry J. Molnár (@BlackhawkJer) reported@xplore_ca Having serious technical issues, and not being able to communicate with your support team is extremely frustrating. My family is very disappointed with your company.

Allan Wilson (@uncleal13) reported@CoryBMorgan I had Xplornet, worked great for a few years, then it would bog down in the evenings as everyone in the area was streaming video. I switched to Statlink, works much better. Currently here in Saskatchewan in my village there are crews going through running the main fiberoptic lines and should have it to all the residences sometime in the summer. I'll be switching to the fibre when I can. I like Starlink, but I don't think it is sustainable, when it is up to full capacity, to continuously launch 3,000 satellites a year to maintain a fleet of 15,000. They are low earth orbit. Meaning each satellite can only stay in orbit about 5-7 years, then it comes down and burns up.
-
AtomicHydra (@atomic_hydra) reported@xplore_ca @Victoriab1107 IM watching my signal go from 16-17 -15 SINR AND THIS IS ACCEPTABLE what..... my internet stutters and lags when it hits that low. Hands down worst service.
-
Brent Hicks (@simonthedog924) reported@xplore_ca why is the service so terrible all of a sudden????
-
Ally Bryant (@Eh_Bee_Sea) reported@xplore_ca A tech came today. I am not impressed. This is a fixable problem that has happened and been fixed twice before. It's been years since we had an issue. This guy says the leaves on the trees make it an "unsuitable location for high-speed". Did the tower move? No. My house? No.
-
Deevio (@Deevio4) reported@xplore_ca Where exactly was the train derailment that has impacted xplore internet over the past day? You need better support and communication to customers and businesses using your services about outages.
-
Indubitably Tho (@IndubitablyTho) reported@preta_6 With Starlink, while not as fast as Telus fibre (right now), you can look forward to incremental upgrades in speed, and equipment, over time. I suggested to a client suffering with only the choice of Xplornet (crap speed + outages) switch to Starlink back in 2020. Installation couldn't have been easier and reliability of his Internet connection immediately stabilized. Everything has got better since, including being sent the latest hardware for free. Starlink's plans for continuously upgrading their satellite constellation were the deal maker for me - and should be for others suffering under Xplornet.
-
Robert Way (@LabradorIce) reported@ClimateSadie Lots of issues with XplorNet from users. We have had it before and the cost versus speed and limitations on data usage were real tough. Most people that I know who had XplorNet in communities didn't keep it.
-
Tybernicus (@Tybernicus17) reported@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.
-
Tybernicus (@Tybernicus17) reported@MajJensen3 @OJoelsen Why would he? In 2021 I bought a house on a paved road 6kms from a small town. Not even Xplornet was available. Cell signal very weak. If not for Starlink, I and many others would have no internet access.
-
G. Louise (@Shuswapgigi) reported@MrStache9 We have Starlink and we like it. We live rural so our options were limited and what we had was very poor in both cost and effectiveness. Starlink was super easy to set up and works reliably well. It costs us $156 a month which is more that xplornet but I wouldn't go back!
-
Ally Bryant (@Eh_Bee_Sea) reportedNo one answering @xplore_ca "24-7" customer support line. 3 or 4 tries in the last week... on hold indefinitely. The same song plays over and over and over. Email support? Auto-reply that a "case has been opened" with no details or information about actually getting service.
-
High Caliber (@RealHICALIBER) reported@PersonNotGroup @TheQuartering We got the same service Jeremy has (starlink) or we couldn't have done what he did. We found 52 acres WAAAAY up in the rockies, no cell coverage at all, but we needed internet of course. Xplornet was the only previous option, and not at all reliable.
-
Death (@JasonDeath187) reported@xplore_ca I'm not sure you can help me, but my Xbox says to use IPV6. Is that available with your service and how do I go about getting it?
-
Bennett Hunter (I am Canadian Libertarian) (@Can_Libertarian) reported@macjbby @nationalpost I live stream in full HD with no problem. Typical speeds are around 200 - 300 Mbps down/15-25 Mbps up. I use to be stuck with Xplornet that advertised 10/1 as the best speeds for my area, yet rarely ever got more than 3 - 4 down/1 up. Starlink is on a completely different level,…
-
who cares (@ChewyChewyChomp) reported@xplore_ca Nope. I’ve tried several times and now it’s too late. My internet has gone to **** since you bought out my previous provider.
-
CJH (@CJH39493411) reported@xplore_ca Pretty pic but don’t care, weak attempt to distract from stealing from people by not providing the service they pay for.

Cowgirl Quinn 🇨🇦 (@GoldenDragonXll) reported@xplore_ca Wifi is still down in PEI...
