    If anyone is looking for a cheap phone plan Public Mobile is having some good holiday deals. 5GB for $40 ($38 after auto-pay) They are on the Telus network but they do slow down your speed but its just fine for day to day. https://www.publicmobile.ca/en/bc/holiday Deals right now include: - Extra 1GB per month on plans over $35 - Bonus 400min international long distance - Bonus 1GB add-on (you keep it till you use it. it gets used AFTER you run out of your monthly allotment.) If you are already a member, right now when you refer somebody you get $20 as the referer and you as the person referred gets a $10 credit. So ask your friends if they use PM already cause you can throw a few bucks in their pockets and yours. If you don't have a friend already on PM go to https://pmreferrals.ca/ and grab a code DISCLOSURE: My code is in that list, I am not trying to post for referrals you get a credit if you use anyone's code. If the mods have an issue just take out this line I've been with PM for nearly a year and I have no complaints compared to my plan with telus before. My little sister has a plan with them and she also has no complaints. Okay one complaint. Their site can be a bit slow but I'll take it for the price.

    I would love to see a video where you work with CIRA https://cira.ca/ Show what they do other than just manage the .ca domain. One thing I would really like to see if how CIRA is working to build internet exchanges across the country https://cira.ca/ixp to make it easier for companies to keep our data within the country without having it go through the US. They are working on a new exchange up in Iqaluit which sounds like a fun trip. I think it would be a great education video. Also if you could convince them it would be awsome to get to transfer some data from vancouver to halifax at 10Gb/s.

    So if Google has a server that is peered with VANx when this launches LTT can do a new video. 50 Gamers NO CPU!!!

    I could make the script myself. I am in computer networking for school so I will be working with powershell a fair amount this upcoming semester. Definitely a good idea that I will look into.

    So I have been getting into the habit of using Windows 10's virtual desktop feature. I keep having one nagging issue, reopening everything after a reboot. Does anybody know of a way I can get a chrome window to automatically open at start in fullscreen on a separate virtual desktop? Very much appreciate any insight into how to set this up.

    So I'm curious to see what others have come up with as their wireless network SSIDs (WiFI network name). Default, simple, maybe dorky? Mine is: (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ Who can top it?

    So I am looking for an interesting solution. I have a camera at my front door that allows me to see if the dog is barking at a delivery or just a squirrel. It is just a raspberry pi. Anybody know if a way to get this advertised on my net as a virtual TV tuner similar to a hdhomerun? I want to be able to use my android TV to navigate to a set channel and see the IP cams feed. Thanks in advance ladies and gents!

    Per system we get around 100/25 but I know that out connection is around 100Gb/s fibre as part of the Orion network. Also the overall speed is actually limited by our schools hardware at the moment, the other end can do more.

    Wait! We need a slogan?

    So a friend of mine that works for bell has been given the official time frame of fibe roll out for Windsor and London. London will be upgraded to 90% 50/10 by the end of August and Windsor by the end of August 2015. Anybody on Bell should be extremely happy (as much as you can be while using bell ) with this news. Hopefully in Windsor spicifically this will cause Cogeco to lower prices because fibe pricing will undercut them by a fair bit.

    If your running cable outside in an underground conduit, ensure that you can either pull a new cable down the road for upgrades or run cat6a now. Also you should probably run 2-3 cables no matter what just for convenience of not having to have to run another again.

    See I love being a student and getting esxi for free, it really makes the need for more physical servers pointless. :-P

    I just got a trendnet 8port switch from ncix and I can personally say that it can move packets crazy fast.

    In-wall rating means it complies with fire code for the toxins it releases if it melts. This is usually more of a concern with commercial settings. Other than that they do the same job

    Wow if you guys came to Canada you'd cry... 60 down 10 up with a measly 375gb cap for $95 is the best you can get from a 'big' ISP in my area. I'm with a reseller and get 6/1 with a 300GB peak cap for $40 but am changing to 20/10 with 150gb peak cap for $48 soon.

    Use the .IMG file and win32 disk writer. Also if you plan to re use the USB after you'll need to figure how to use the disk part tool to 'clean' your USB.

    With a cable connection you need to know which modem/s your provider will let you use and will have to buy that one. Who is your provider?

    Looks like they are expanding into Essex county. :-D http://www.windmobile.ca/network-and-coverage/coverage

    Forgive me if I'm in the wrong section but it is about cell phones. Is there anybody in Amhurstburg that can say they are receiving cell coverage from wind. I'm asking because the following link shows towers out there now even if they are few. http://www.coveragemapper.com/windmap.php
