Explornet vs Bell internet
10/20/2019 at 10:44 AM

Any one have bell internet? I have explornet and I have to constantly reboot it, and now there is a major outage apparently. I’m am tired of paying so much a month to get spotty internet at best. Any one have experience with bell?

My explornet was down all day yesterday. And it is so slow at times when it is on. I wish there was a better option I would for sure grab it.

Yes, I know there was a weather problem, and I tried to be patient. But the problem persisted. What I want is to be informed as to the problem without having to constantly call. Perhaps a heads-up posting on the website as to the current status. Or, better still, a pro-rated reduction in the monthly fee. Something....anything!!!

Explorenet has been nothing but problems for us, switching between towers, problematic outages, and backed up tech support that can't offer solutions.

We'll be going with RFnow soon enough.

RF Now isn't an option for me either. I phoned both Saturday and Sunday and used the call back option because the current wait time was 80 minutes. I never received a call back either day. Its back up now but for how long?

All the way . Certainly far from perfect but far better than all the rest put together. We really do deserve and need better internet especially for business use.
