We will help find the right plan for you. Whether it's helping you land that next big client or making sure everyone gets to watch their Netflix uninterupted, we have you covered at OpenConcept Internet.
OpenConcept Internet is proud to offer cable, DSL and satellite services throughout Alberta and British Columbia. This means there are virtually no limitations to where our services are availble. No matter where you are you can be sure that we have you covered.
Open Concept Internet, Inc. (OCII) is an independent, privately owned Internet Service Provider. We have wholesale and Third Party Internet Access (TPIA) contracts with several internet providers. Telus and Shaw are the main providers of these services. Our wholesale contracts insulate our customers from their billing and technical services. In any case of technical difficulty, the customer is required to contact OCII. Calls to Shaw or Telus will not work as they do not deal with wholesale customers directly.
Not all services are available in all areas. We will check your address and inform you of the availability of the requested service.
All services require the purchase or rental of a compatible modem/router. Customers are welcome to use their own internet hardware, provided it meets the requirements for the requested services. Modem/router rental and any additional service hardware adds $10-$20 to your monthly service cost until the cost of the hardware has been paid, at which time the cost will be removed from the monthly invoice. Hardware costs range from $180 to $350 depending on the service selected.
All new customers are required to pay a deposit of at least $100 in order for us to process the order. The deposit is applied to the first month(s) of service or to the hardware costs involved in setting up the service. The deposit value is determined by the number of services requested.
Cable Internet Services All cable services come with unlimited bandwidth. Services levels will vary depending on regional infrastructure. Our technicians will conduct a speed test to verify that the service is setup properly. If you have not had Shaw cable services in the past 6 months, we will waive the install fee of $82. Customers moving from Shaw or any other TPIA provider where they have had services in the previous 6 months will be charged an $82 setup fee. There is a cost of $25 for any move or change of service orders.
DSL Internet Services All DSL services have a 300 GB bandwidth limitation. Unlimited bandwidth services are available for an additional $10 per month. Services levels will vary depending on regional infrastructure. If DSL services are provisioned where a Telus home phone line is not being used, a Dry Loop install fee will apply. For residential installations, the install fee is $42 per line. For business installations, the install fee is $80 per line. These install fees will be applied to the first month of service. Dry Loop monthly fees are $10 per month in addition to the monthly service fee.
