Comments:
Performance has
significantly been degraded in the last year. Number of users
has greatly hindered bandwidth available to users. Wait time for
telephone support is very lengthy, and network outages are regular.
In particular, the dhcp server is seldom functioning correctly.
Cogeco staff who monitor the user newsgroup can be unprofessional
in their reproaches to customers, even to the point of threatening
to kick them off the network. !!
