Hey, I did not know that you still had to pay for a DSL modem rental from Bell even if you are not renting?
This, on top of the 95% increase on their modem rental fees?
Okay, time to shop around. MIBAgentQ mentioned Acanac, which they're using at their new house.

My little brother uses Acanac.
Good points: Cheap (1 year contract), free SSL tunnelling to bypass Bell traffic shaping (perfect for PirateBayers).
Bad points: Lots of lag - running traceroute results in a large number of hops. For whatever reason, their internet hookup is somewhat fragmented. Apparently they upgraded earlier this year but it's probably not a good ISP for online gamers.

Well, I think my online gaming days are long gone now (like a decade long gone). That is not a bad thing.
I think I will give Acanac a try, but I am still debating whether to go for a dry line or not.
