Rogers Hi-Speed Internet is a broadband internet service provider in Canada, owned by Rogers Communications. Rogers previously operated under the brand names Rogers@Home, Rogers Yahoo! Hi-Speed Internet, and Road Runner in Newfoundland.

Relationship with Yahoo!

In 2004, Rogers partnered with Yahoo! to offer Rogers Yahoo! Hi-Speed Internet to its members. The free service offers unlimited e-mail storage, plus access to Premium Yahoo! Services at no charge, including a Flickr PRO account. Members are also offered an account with Yahoo! Canada GeoCities. The service also includes free software for subscribers, including a modified version of Norton Internet Security. Although still partnered with Yahoo!, Rogers dropped Yahoo! from its services name in 2008. [http://www.neowin.net/forum/lofiversion/index.php/t618894.html]

Product changes

On March 18, 2008 Rogers started to increase speeds for its Ultra-Lite and Extreme customers to 512 kbit/s download for Ultra-Lite, and 10.0 Mbit/s download and 1.0 Mbit/s upload for Extreme.

Rogers has been reducing monthly data transfer limits for their lower-tier services. The Ultra-Lite package has gone from a 60 GB limit to a 2 GB limit and Lite package has gone from a 60 GB limit to a 25 GB limit.

Rogers Yahoo! Hi-Speed Internet users are now being warned through their browser via Rogers-injected code that they have reached 75% of their limit and again at 100% of their limit and will be charged for additional usage at the time of the 100% warning. If the limit is exceeded, the customer will be subject to additional charges, up to a 50 dollar maximum extra charge per month.
