=== Internet ===
[[Bell Internet]] provides high speed [[Digital subscriber line|DSL]] and fiber to the home [[FTTH]] Internet service in many areas where it offers phone service. DSL is offered in various speeds ranging from 500&nbsp;kbit/s to 100&nbsp;Mbit/s download and 256&nbsp;kbit/s to 10&nbsp;Mbit/s upload on DSL while up to 8&nbsp;Gbit/s on fiber optic depending on what the local infrastructure can support.

Bell began offering [[Fiber to the x|Fibre-to-the-node]] Internet access to some subscribers in 2010. Bell markets this service under the name "Fibe".<ref>{{cite web |title=Bell Fibe |url=http://www.bell.ca/shopping/PrsShpInt_Access.page |access-date=July 10, 2011 |archive-url=https://archive.today/20110706165903/http://www.bell.ca/shopping/PrsShpInt_Access.page |archive-date=July 6, 2011 |url-status=dead }}</ref> Many urban Fibe regions can access all speeds up to and including 50+mbps down and 15+mbps up but some rural Fibe regions can only obtain 16&nbsp;Mbit/s down and 1&nbsp;Mbit/s up. Non-Fibe regions are limited to legacy DSL technology, supporting speeds of up to 7&nbsp;Mbit/s down and 1&nbsp;Mbit/s up. Bell Canada has now rolled out Fibre to the Home services to certain subscribers across Eastern Canada, this service can provide guaranteed download of 3&nbsp;Gbit/s and upload speeds of 3&nbsp;Gbit/s. In August 2019, the company announced it would cut roughly 200,000 households from a rural internet expansion program after a federal regulator lowered wholesale broadband prices that major telecom companies can charge smaller internet providers.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.cbc.ca/news/business/bell-canada-internet|title=Bell scales back rural internet plans after CRTC decision on rates|last=Bickis|first=Ian|date=August 19, 2019|website=CBC}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.mobileworldlive.com/featured-content/top-three/bell-canada-cuts-fwa-rural-broadband-plan/|title=Bell Canada cuts FWA rural broadband plan|date=August 20, 2019|website=Mobile World Live|language=en-GB|access-date=August 29, 2019}}</ref>
