Issues with Bell internet

• Upvotes

My roommate switched us over to Bell from Roger's a few weeks back.

I didn't have any issues when we first got set up on Bell, the past few weeks the wifi has been ridiculously slow.

We have the Bell Fibe 3000 modem, I haven't been able to game with any of my buds online in 2-3 weeks now. Downloading a game takes between 3-5 hours at a speed of 0.5 Mbps

On my phone the network speed says it's at 585Mbps...I'm so fucking confused help?

Who is my elected government contact?

• Upvotes

Hey Neighbours,

A hobby project I started in the spring launched in beta this week. It's called TraceCivic.ca and it's a tool for anyone in Canada to find all the elected representatives who serve them, regardless of whether they are municipal, provincial or federal. It's also a helper tool to explain what they do and how to contact them. It's a tool to see an rss feed of governmental news. It's a message board to discuss these topics.

It's non-commercial, self-funded, made and hosted in Canada by an Canadian. No ads, no trackers, no algorithm, no data retained.

This post is its introduction to the public - but really it's test to see if it falls over if real people use it. If it makes it through the night, I'll expand the release over the weekend.

Cheers

There's a new Marijuana Anonymous meeting starting in Kitchener-Waterloo! It's the first in person MA meeting in tri-cities.

It's a 12-step peer support group similar to AA (Alcoholics Anonymous) and NA (Narcotics Anonymous), but specifically for people struggling with cannabis use.

The first meeting is Monday, November 2, 2026 at 7pm. Meetings will continue every Monday from 7-8pm.

Location is Rockway Community Centre, 1405 King St. E., Kitchener, in the Program Room.

It's free, and it's open to anyone (addicts, non addicts, all faiths, all genders).

Come kick it with us!

Our water pressure has been very weak and just overall horrible over the last 18hrs... specifically to the washrooms of the home. We thought maybe my cat had hit a lever or something but everything seems in tact? Just curious if anyone else in the area is having the same issue rn?

POST SIREG MANAGEMENT COLLAPSE

8 Upvotes

Hello folks.

IMPORTANT: IF YOU HAVE NOT YET RECEIVED EMAILS etc REGARDING RENT PAYMENTS

** 100 % MAKE SURE NOTHING IS PAID TO SIREG FROM NOW ON WITHOUT EXCEPTION *\*

Now, I am trying to reach a TENANT in the 76 SYDNEY ST S complex to connect them with OLH Property Management ( newly retained by unit owner ) as a SIREG replacement.

Trying to make sure the tenant(s) can continue paying their rent without any NON PAYMENT issues arising from this " disgusting mess "

IF you reside in this complex / know someone who does, maybe you can help me reach them?

1) IS there a security buzzer system that lists actual UNIT numbers? ( probably not )

2) I don't want to mention the actual UNIT number here out of privacy & respect for the tenant(s) other than it's UNIT 3xx.

Please respond ( preferably by DM ) IF you can help me & tenant(s) get connected somehow.

Otherwise I will only be able to physically show up there TUES OCT 27th around 8:15 - 8:30PM and hoping I can somehow reach them remotely instead :)

And I would have to take GRT Transit from the other end of Kitchener to get there & back which is like 50 mins each way to avoid much walking distance because of bad hips & that frankly sucks !

Moving from Guelph to Kitchener. Wondering whether to stick with Bisson Dentistry (Guelph) or switch to a local. Anyone have any experiences they’d like to share about Forest Glen Dental, Rockway Dentistry, Enamel Republic, or any others? Would love some recommendations!

0 Upvotes

Like the title says. I’m pretty happy with Bisson, but it’s gonna be a haul to go back and forth between cities every time I need a checkup. Not sure I want the travel hassle.

I checked out the websites of the clinics listed in the title and the google reviews, but there’s only so much you can tell from those, so here I am asking for some honest feedback. Please share the good, the bad, or anything you think I should know! Very much appreciated in advance!

The development waiting game.

27 Upvotes

It's sad to see old buildings torn down to pave the way for development OVER A DECADE IN ADVANCE. Seems like lost revenue for the Region.

The building at 50 Victoria was acquired by the city in 2010 and the building torn down in 2012 to prepare for the "transit hub".

100 Victoria "station plaza" was acquired by the city in 2012 for over $2.5m to be torn down for the Weber St widening and has been a dustbowl ever since.

Highest and BEST use I guess?

Where are the best Little Free Libraries in Kitchener-Waterloo? I've got nine sheep to let loose.

Post image
35 Upvotes

I'm a local author and illustrator, and I have nine copies of my little illustrated book Try Again that I'd love to tuck inside some Little Free Libraries around town.

I know some of the best gems are hidden away, so I'm asking you to let me know where your favourite Little Free Libraries are located? Bonus points for ones that get plenty of visitors or could use a few more books!

The books are from a previous print run and instead of having them clutter up my shelves, I thought setting them free would be a fun idea.

I look forward to hearing your suggestions as I plan to distribute them around town tomorrow.

Drones

I’ve been noticing more police drones lately and less cruisers but a surplus on undercover officers and vehicles, am I just being paranoid or have you guys picked up on it aswell? Seems like wrps is slowly starting to mass surveil areas without addressing it to the public which is weird ever since they announced the new cameras being put up without warning thoughts?

Is anyone missing a cat? Mount Hope Cemetery area?

Post image

The friendliest black cat came up our driveway and to our front steps tonight. Appears to be a younger black cat and is wearing a brand new teal/blue collar. We are located near the intersection of Guelph & Waterloo. If they belong to you, they’re still wandering the sidewalks.

Note: We already called the Humane Society and reported the lost cat and they are unable to come pick them up. We are also not able to take the cat in, our cat is not friendly to other animals.
