telMAX is recognized as Canada's Fastest ISP, by PCMag, for second year in a row!

In 2022, the small Ontario-based provider telMax came out of nowhere to prove itself the Fastest ISP in all of Canada. In 2023, the company did it again. No other Canadian ISP comes close to its throughput speeds.

PCMag’s 2023 Fastest ISP all-around for the country is “repeat winner” telMax, a small fiber provider in regions of Ontario. Last year, telMax won as the all-around fastest with a speed index of 603.3—and at that time, the score was based on its average download and upload speeds. This year, calculating median speeds, telMax reaches 578.8. The next-fastest is Lakeland Networks, which jumps from 201.7 last year (based on average speeds) to a stellar 323.3 (median speeds) this year. In fact, the only Canadian ISP to achieve a score of 10 in speed is telMAX.

For nearly two decades, PC Mag has been putting out a yearly report on the fastest internet service providers (ISPs) in Canada. But this year they brought something bigger.

Here in 2023, they are armed with new data partners and deeper information about ISPs in Canada, which allows PCMag to rank them based not only on speed, but also on price, coverage, and customer satisfaction. This new methodology provides a fuller, rounder look at broadband service across the country and allows PCMag to zero in on the best ISPs—not just the fastest ones.
