BothDoes Teksavvy use cable or phone line?
It depends on your area. They offer both in Ontario. I can only get VDSL here. I'm not sure if they offer both at some addresses or if they have mutually exclusive areas for cable and phoneline internet.Does Teksavvy use cable or phone line?
As already answered by others both.Does Teksavvy use cable or phone line?
Yes real mechanical ringers. That's the beauty of those old phones.They used to issue Grandstream ATAs, and those apparently support pulse dialing. So yes actually (probably)
Edit: HOWEVER if your phones have mechanical ringers, that is a whole other kettle of fish as most ATAs are unable to power them
Ok, well... it sounds like it's not impossible. Some (but not all) Grandstream ATAs have a high ring power option that can be enabled - I don't know how many mechanical ringers that will support at once. Apparently ring power boosters are also a thing, and some of those phones have a ring bias spring or something that looks pretty simple? Some homework may be required.Yes real mechanical ringers. That's the beauty of those old phones.
It's only $5 cheaper than Tekksavvy for same service speed 50 and 10 on dsl. Perhaps I can go slower speed, mainly use for Netflix, but Tekksavvy doesn't offer anything slower that's also unlimited.We use Eyesurf. Uses Bell lines. I think it's about $52/month.
If you get one of theirs, it comes pre-configured and most importantly avoids finger pointing. If the internet is down, you dont want the ISP blaming the modem (that they dont support as you bought it elsewhere). I bought the TS VDSL and plugged in my own router. Cameras run directly to TS router so I can have them more open to the outside while allowing no access to the internal network.regarding TekSavvy.
Is it better to buy TekSavvy's modem (rent, buy, rent to own) or just buy one from Best Buy?
