So i've been having problems with my 10mb line for awhile now... sometimes it was brighthouse's fault (random problems), apparently the rest of the time though it was me (needed a slight tweaking, thanks to broadbandreports tweaker tool for the solution).

Not too shabby for $29.99/mo

7mb is standard, 10mb is the upgrade. They also offer a 15mb line, but you need their digital phone which is a ripoff, $40/mo.

They should offer that here, where I believe the demand would be pretty high.

Any torrent capping on that 10mb connection?

Here in Ontario, the 2 big ISP's, Rogers and Bell, for the most part, have started to cap torrent transfers quite brutally.

Glad to see you got yours working fine aphex! I frequently get 11-12 Mbps off my connection with BT and, other stuff (;)) and I can get more than 1 Mbps when uploading at low-load times.

I also got bumped to 10 Mbps for -$15. No typo.
