[kwlug-disc] Carrytel.ca -- 70M/10M for $35/month

[William Park]

It is promo, but no contract.

Switch over was smooth.  I thought it would be simple modem swap,
because I'm switching from Teksavvy to Carrytel, both on Rogers cable.
But, I was told that it is "new installation", and technician had to be
sent.  It ended up just modem swap, after all.

One note:  I also have VoIP phone from Teksavvy.  The ATA is
pre-configured by Teksavvy.  I'm sure you can change the settings, but I
have no idea what all they all mean.  That's fine.  But, in ATA
webconfig, IPs of Teksavvy DNS servers were manually specified,
overriding DNS servers that DHCP gives you.  It turns out that Teksavvy
DNS servers don't respond to non-Teksavvy IPs.  Remove the entries, and
phone works now.
