no they do have there own backbone.. the majority on the canadianisp list are resellers.. I think 4-5 years ago there was at least 5-6 resellers of just teksavvy.

You should really call them .. they can explain it far more better

everyone goes through bells (tax payers funded infrastructure) and yes the majority are literly resellers of bells backbone internet connection runing from bell and literly just do there own support and sell modems.

Teksavvy has there own backbone (hence the 200GB and $0.50 per gb over)

Just because bell maintains the lines does not mean your internet comes from bell.

this is why Teksavvy is so important in this argument because they are being effected..

   

Maybe I am missing something but if you want the control back to the people don't support them.. Teksavvy is growing fast because of this. They are taking on cable also If everyone joined them (last time I called sounds like that is what is happening) then the balance of control would change. Bell/rogers has more suscribers cancel and suscribe to a provider that has there own backbone like teksavvy. (not just anouther bell reseller) Power to the people, don't buy it.. don't give me this excuse that its not available if bell sells dsl internet in your area you can get anouther dsl provider because its setup!

I dunno about anyone else but the 133a was mostly capacitors.
