<div dir="ltr">This was averaged across customers, so any ISP with lots of "internet lite" type subscribers will come out low. I think a lot of Teksavvy customers are people willing to pay for a quality connection, so that would bump up their average. Also, recording Bell's fiber customers in it's own category is a little unfair in this respect. On my Acanac cable connection, I never see my downlink drop to even double the average rates reported there (though, I don't have an easy way to check what Netflix is using).<br>

<br></div>Basically it says Netflix ranked ISPs for their ability to stream Netflix and Rogers came last (even behind Teksavvy).<br><br></div>Further down there's a bit from a senior Rogers VP talking about when the test was done and how Rogers has "invested" in upgrading their infrastructure specifically to enhance Netflix streaming.<br>
<br></div>But if you Google the article it looks like the real reason Rogers failed was throttling, so all they had to do ("investment") was figure out how not to throttle Netflix?<br><br><br></div>
