I have Videotron cable internet.

DSL has a theoretical (and practical) limit of 150 kilobytes per second:
cable can go up to four times that limit. Digital Subscriber Line providers
want you to think that getting cable will not be advantageous to you
because others will "share" your connection, which is true, but will not affect
yours at all. I can't speak for everyone else, but my cable connection has
NEVER let me down... more than once (a 3 hour downtime) in 2 years so far.
