FAQ
Does Fizz throttle uploads?
There is no download throttling. The traffic management for Uploads is done by VidĂ©otron at the Network level. Itâs the same for any 3rd party reseller that operates on the VidĂ©otron Network. It only applies to upload speeds of 20 Mbps and more to deal with abusive customers. Fizzâs Internet traffic management policy VidĂ©otron’s Internet Traffic Management Policy VidĂ©otron (Fizz) is known for managing their network well by splitting their nodes long before there are too many customers that could cause congestion.
Can I use my own modem and router?
No, you can not use your own modem, only the one supplied for Free by Fizz but you can use your own router. Just put the Fizz modem in bridge mode.
Does the Fizz modem contain an Intel Puma chip?
Yes, the modem supplied by Fizz (Hitron CODA-4680) like millions of other modems used in the United Kingdom and in North America contains an Intel Puma chip which has been reported as suffering from latency peaks. If your household consists of many people that use heavy bandwidth applications all at once, you should look at another Internet service provider. But it seems most of them in Québec use modems with a Puma 5/6/7 chip. If you are a serious online gamer, using an Ethernet connection instead of Wi-Fi for your gaming rig will diminish latency peaks.
Should I cancel my current provider first?
No, get Fizz, then when everything is set up and running to your liking, cancel your old provider. That is also true even if you currently have a cable provider. The two services can run for a while on the same cable.
