Again... I will have to look into that Skipper. Does it work for more than one computer at a time in the house??? And, what are your speedtests like??? www.speedtest.net 10GB would be enough here too...

Not all 3 of us j ace, but yes, 2 of us do. The wife's computer travels outta the home often to work. About going with one stick in a router... my worry (and again I'm unsure???) was that one stick operating for two computers going at a time, will only make what is already a painstakingly slow speed, even slower. My wife having often been required to take online classes/conferences, I also didn't want to jeopardize her current working system with my online porn streaming (fish porn of course). But, now that her school is done, it's time to explore available options. I don't "believe" (not sure) all providers using Bell/Telus tech (ie, ?????? Storm) necessarily choke their users dependent and during busy use times. If they all do, then what I'm using now may be the best option still. The Bell stick was recommended by my neighbor... who works out of her house... for Bell... and gets hers for free. lol. "Some" others use Ripnet... but they must be at a slightly higher elevation because I can't think of any directly around me with a 70 foot tower or more. If Storm does not choke... and what they offer is 3 Down & 1 up untampered with and true to contract at cost, I will allow them to punch holes in my house to pop up a satellite... BUT, if they're like XPlorenet was, punch holes in my house, charge me even more money for their best package which offers supposed better speeds, and then I start Speedtesting them on Thursday nights for results of Ping 1800 ms, Down 0.5 and Up .15 because they're choking... well I can't deal with that shhhnit. lol. I don't need to be a tonne faster because I don't download movies or play online games or such. Just looking to be as fast as I can for surfing, checking the forums, up/downloading pics and watching the odd You-tube video. Getting by here... but barely. lol. Don't like having to always wait to go to work or to my folks place to upload pics and videos for doing up reports either. lol. Appreciate the response. Seriously.

Hey Raf, thanks for the reply dood. If it's like the Bell stick, then this household actually needs two of them... and soon enough with a 13 year old, possibly 3 of them. I believe though that my wife looked into Rogers when we first moved in 3 years ago and they didn't have anything available here yet. Bell, XPlorenet and Ripnet were our options. Will look into them again, but with our two Bell Sticks we're just not seeing good enough service for the money we're spending... and the thought of be choked during primetime really annoys and spooks me. Will do D. Never heard of it. Ripnet. Probably the fastest service I know I could get. $1000 for the 70 foot towering eye-sore they'd need to put up. Hoping that the new "50 house" (supposed) subdivision going in at Innisville will bring better options. Thanks guys! IPhones and the such aren't a part of our lives yet... in fact, I might turn on the old cell phone once or twice a week to note the time if I forget my watch or, really have to call someone about something. Call us old fashioned or unretarded if you will. Surprised no one at all is using Storm..?

BTW... really a computer dummie here... so please not too much geek speak. Thankyall muchly!

While I'm thinking of it... The speedtests tonight with my current internet server (a Bell stick) thus far are... Ping: 104 Down: 1.85 Mbps Up: 0.5 Mbps My wife's... Ping: 198 Down: 0.55 Mbps Up: 0.36 Mbps I'm considering going with Storm. Their package for us would be cheaper and it offers 50GB/month, Down 3.0 & Up 1.0 Country living you pay a price... heck, it was faster Internet with FiberOptics in Moosonee and Attawapiskat. We once had XPloreNet and it was absolutely gawd aweful. Paying for the best package (5Down / 1Up) I was regularily getting Down/Up speeds even less than the Bell stick and with a ping rate in the 1000's. Every night being "choked" by the provider. So... now I'm wondering if anyone using Storm has experienced similar choking problems, and if the speeds they advertise (and you pay for) are really what you get???

I'll come up with Bill in the future for those Atlantics. Tyler... that's the way to spend a summer dood. Great fishing mixed with the perfect memories with friends.

Probably a coincidence Drew.. same joiner I changed last year.. right where you loaded your sled! I needed to fix it better anyhow! Well bud... if it is may bad, lemme know what I owe ya and we'll square up next time chillin'. Serious!!!

That's some giving thanks at Thanksgiving for all the great things we're lucky to have in our back yard. The splake takes the cake!

Cool man! I can relate to having a canoe with a motor. Despite the dreary weather, it sounds as though you really enjoyed the experience........ and, keep that camera dry next time too.

Very much liked this one!!! Well fellas, a great collection of walleye, and a joy to view a solid handful of OFC'ers coming together and making it happen. Great fish for all but, I'll have to wait and view some vids from work... too slow in the boonies here. Great delivery as always Mike! Agree with ya too... there's just something about walleye you gotta always find time for.

You had a great summer season Tyler. Thanks for putting that together... wicked fish porn in many ways. GL with the steelies!

A roaring applause of one here in a dark basement with a finger left of some MacCallan 10. You live it Wayne... and it's so nice to see what appears to be so much of the good, through times of tough. Can think of one other. And btw... the pipes cracking is probably just a co-inky-dink! Wuzn't............ me. Great report and pics bud!

Pretty sure in the cold my 60 has done it too.

That is the one I once got for $39.99. And if you're paying that $89 now, you might as well go to LeBaron's and get the Sealine... which between the two is probably a little better IMO.

Believe those reels are made by Diawa Stoty, and having a Sealine and one Depthmaster, they're pretty close. Bought one 5 years ago for $39.99 on sale and it's made two trips to Great Bear to handle lakers there and a dozen plus trips to Quinte. Can't beat that for what it's given back and it's still working fine. Maybe I just got a good one in the batch for a change.

Took this pic some years back while up the Cheepas River with Bren. Old Report... http://ontariofishingcommunity.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=12010 The Cheepas always had alot of Sandhills along it's river banks. Noisy bird... like a Blue Heron but just more vocal. Not sure about eating them Shane??? The elders in Attawapiskat would, but the younger people... nope. They`d say "stringy" and that was coming from a family of boys with the last name Bird.

Right on Will. My buddy found a snowy owl once with a broken wing. I wished he'd shown it the same kindness... although we were in no part of the world to easily get it Xray'd and checked into a bird sanctuary. Used to always see a redtail above the Hancock Rapids travelling on the Moose River in autumn. Love the birds of prey man! Cool what ya did!

Attaboy!!! That's a big and tough fish to get in that quick actually. It was surely no worse for wear. The odd sturgeon is bound to happen into a hook now and again and nice to see ya showed this great and threatened fish from these parts some decency with a quick landing and release. If that tug on the line didn't get your juices flowing for another eh!?!? More 11+ footers caught out in the Fraser this year than in recent years. Can you imagine? Great fish!

It was rumored this years colors wouldn't be up to standard due to basically a summer od drought. Driving today in the Lanark Highlands I'll beg to differ. But that said, probaby the best I have ever seen for fall colors is where Paul was out taking pictures today. Hard to beat the Gatineau. Lots of maples in both places, and they make the best colors. Nice shot dood!

Photoshopped!!! Joking Bennie! You're a slayer of fish in a world full of leviathans. Props dood! Another day at the office for ya!?!?!?

Those inland browns can be about the most finicky little buggahs! Nice job man.. on both the browns and bows. Great closer.

I'll chew on them specks, you can eat the grouse. Deal!

Muskie Guru Lew does it again! Solid couple days young feller! Great skis!

Later season salmon slammin! Rubin even gets lucky in the end. A tale of calm seas adventure. Good show!

Rockin' Jacques! Good luck. That stand really stands out as wicked. Hunting in luxury!
