Canadian commission tells telecom giant to stop throttling gamer bandwidth |
Listed in: News Tags: Canada, news, rogers communications
Online gamers, particularly those who play massively multiplayer online games, have it tough in Canada, apparently. The country's largest cable provider, Rogers Cable and Telecom, has reportedly been throttling the bandwidth of customers playing online games like World of Warcraft.
The Canadian Gamers Organization had filed a complaint agains the telecommunications firm last month in response to the throttling. Now, online gamers in the country can start heaving a sigh of relief. The Canadian Radio-Television Tecommunications Commission has responed to the complaint by telling Rogers to stopp throttling gamers' bandwidth.
The CRTC explained that any forced slowdowns in internet traffic require approval under the Canadian Telecommunications. Rogers' own policies regarding bandwidth throttling were cited as well. The firm now has until September 27 to provide the commission with a plan that details how they will deal with the issue.
Rogers had said before that the problem with World of Warcarft had already been solved. The telecom giant also claimed that they had not received any reports of the same issues cropping up with other online games.
The CGO, however, believes that the problem extends beyond Rogers. The organization claims that other telecom firms in Canada such as Shaw and Bell Sympatico are also throttling the bandwith of online gamers and will be asking the CRTC to take a look at them as well. Here's hoping that Canadian gamers will soon be able to play their online games without having to deal with forced slowdowns soon.

Having to check how much data you use each and everyday is a true pain and I hope we can have internet service as pre-2010.
Blast!
What the deuce!
Victory is mine!
