We Offer Two Different Sets of Internet Plans

This page shows the Hamilton home internet plans that we (The Urban Internet Company) offer over the Cogeco cable TV network in Hamilton, (and yes those plans of ours do include the cost for use of the cable TV line), as these are the correct set of plans that we offer for most Hamilton residents.

That said, there are some parts of Hamilton that use the Rogers cable TV network, over which we also offer our home internet plans (line included), except that the plans that we offer on both networks vary a little. So if you know that your home is on the Rogers cable TV network, then please look at the page for our other set of plans in Hamilton and pick from them. If you are not sure which network reaches your home, no worries, simply use the Contact form (and tell us your full street address (including any unit number) and ask us which set of plans you should shop from) and we will figure that out for you (for free) and email you back within 24 hours (no obligation, and no sales people will bother you.)

If you do accidentally order from the wrong set of plans, we will let you know, and we will get the order fixed up. No worries! Life happens!

We use the cable TV networks of most cable companies in Canada. Hamilton is one of the very few places in Canada which is divided among (or between) CRTC regulated cable TV network monopolies. Monopolies that is for the original 1970's roll out of cable TV (and yes those networks have been upgraded a lot since then). Most of Hamilton is wired up with the Cogeco cable TV network, but some of it wired up (on what is now) part of the Rogers cable TV network. According to Wikipedia, part of the Rogers area (former Source Cable network) consists of the area, as follows: the "area south of Limeridge Road to the end of the original Hamilton city limits (south, east and west), as well as newer urbanized areas south of Rymal Road into the former Glancaster." Plus the former Mountain Cable (now part of Rogers), that reaches homes in Hamilton Mountain area. Generally speaking, the rest of Hamilton is on the Cogeco cable network. Bottom line, if there is a cable TV line running to your home (excluding from a satellite dish), then our home internet plans are available for your home. If in doubt, you are welcome to ask us.
