How does TekSavvy make money when Rogers charges it $21.00 per end-user + $2 per 100 Mb in addition to 5GB monthly cap? The basic plan from TekSavvy is $24.95 which means they are probably making $4 per month per customer given the customer doesn't go over 5GB download. However, there is a $180 install charge which means it will take away the $4 profit away and not to forget that TekSavvy has to provide it's own bandwidth. So, I am puzzled as how TekSavvy makes money with these prices and who the heck at CRTC approves a cost of $21 from Rogers to simply provide the cable connection from user home to it's Point of Connection for such a high rate? Is TekSavvy and others loosing money for the sake of siging up a big number of clients? Thanks, Bruce
