They borrow Rogers lines and towers. I called to see if they can give me a better deal then Rogers, they can if I want slower internet speeds, and less data on my phone. I think the only thing they would allow me to do, is call my brother on the border without getting charged.

Who cares its plenty fast. Pages load instantly. Most people have no idea how many GB or how much throughout they need.

I'm mostly on WiFi so whatever.

I use mobile/home internet. I was talking about home internet speeds. I know how much internet download and upload I need.

Ah, I still gave a regular internet connection at home

Huh? Also, Freedom is a reseller, Rogers would get the money anyways in my area if I switched.

Freedom does also have their own network...

Call them yourself, ask if they use their own line infrastructure, or do if they use another company's lines.

Maybe you need to call them, it sounds like you're uninformed lol. Back before they were known as freedom, they used to only have service in major cities because that is where their networks existed. Then they started taking off when they started including roaming on other networks.
