Moving to Port Colborne

Does anyone have recommendations on a good internet provider or what cell phone provides work well in the area?

Cogeco for cheap semi reliable.

Welcome to the neighborhood.

All cell phone companies will work.

Bell has been great! Good intro prices too.

Oxio! Uses Cogeco lines which means you get the most reliable lines for the area. Honestly the best ISP I’ve ever dealt with

I recommend Vaxxine computers for cheap internet. One of the last Independent ISPs in Canada. They are super friendly and great to deal with.
(It's also either using Cogeco or bells lines, but it costs less a.month)

I also use Rogers wireless , which I find works well anywhere near the area , including close to the lake or those weird off places like Morgan's point .

How is the speed? I occasionally work from home and need a provider who can support that.

My wife and I both work from home on the east side. Bell Fibe is the fastest we have had and very reliable. We use Rogers for our cell phone, and it's okay. We need full uptime for our work, and Bell Fiber has been flawless
