Cogeco boosts Internet speed in Ontario

Cogeco Cable has launched a new high-speed Internet package (HSI) in Ontario that will allow customers to achieve a download speed of 50 Mpbs, 1.5 Mbps upstream, and a monthly capacity of 150 GB download.

Called the ‘HSI Ultimate’ package, the service comes with Cogeco's "full range of security services” and includes the modem rental. It is initially available to customers in Burlington, Oakville, Milton and Halton, ON, but will “progressively be available” in all areas served by Cogeco in Quebec and Ontario in the coming years said the press release

"This new Internet package shows our constant concern to improve our network to satisfy our customers”, said vice president of marketing said Ron Perrotta, in the release. “They can benefit from a more efficient service. With technological advancement, we can offer better access to downstream and upstream Internet, which allows customers to take advantage of applications, available on Internet, more easily."

The HSP Ultimate package will cost of $149.95 per month for subscribers to Internet only, and $144.95 per month for subscribers to Cogeco’s television or telephone services.

This significant increase in speed takes Cogeco to the forefront surpasing Bell and Rogers maximum high speed of 16MB by almost 10 times and their typical internet package by almost 25 times!

Now that's progress small business can benefit from!
