From 3.5 to 12.7 just because 1-10 is so overrated, it's like a 6.5 out of 4.3 to 16.2.

Voyager, they have been consistently awesome for the 6+ years I've been with them.

  • Sign up people were super helpful, made sure everything happened on time and got onto Chorus quickly when their subcontractor screwed up.
  • Had a configuration question cos I was trying to be clever and use my own router, help desk person was actually helpful and clearly knew what they were talking about, able to get it sorted super fast.
  • Always been consistently fast, clearly not over provisioned
  • No CG-NAT nonsense
  • I'm weird and want a static IP. Unless you are doing CG-NAT where IPv4 addresses cost you extra, giving someone a static IP is a one-off config change on a router somewhere, so it pisses me off that many providers want a monthly fee for this. Voyager just charges a one-off fee, then it's done.

Voyager is on my list for the sane static IP alone. Currently with Spark, which is all fine a good with bundled phone plans, but the IP fee is a bit wince inducing.

Strongly recommend - if you do end up switching, hit me up. They just started a referral program, can get you a $50 discount
