“Unlimited” Bandwidth
Via Michael Geist: Bell Canada has a new “Unlimited” Bandwidth plan for wireless.
The Catch is (naturally) in the fine print:
You shall not use or allow others to use the Service or your Device if such use:
- consumes excessive network capacity in Bell’s reasonable opinion, or causes our network, or our ability to provide services to others, to be adversely affected;
- is for multi-media streaming, voice over Internet protocol or any other application which uses excessive network capacity that is not made available to you by Bell;
- is to operate an email, web, news, chat or other service.
So, there’s a limit on the “unlimited bandwidth” but they won’t say what it is (save that its at their discretion). And you can’t use VOiP (unless they are the provider - sorry, no Skype).
